Bluetooth file transfer

[mikeadams1985]

Ok, i just dont seem to get this.

how do i send a picture or an mp3 or video file to another bluetooth device.??

i can send contacts simply click and hold 'send via bluetooth'

files
click and hold NO 'send via bleutooth'

all i can find is Beam which is Infared.
I can receive files thru bluetooth no problem

i just cant seem to send them.

Help plz!

Without the use of any illegal applications en cheats this is possible,
I agree this is a ridicules solution and need to be improved, only with a register tweak you can increase the search time for example.
For any developer reading this, plz make something nice of the bluetooth manager.
PLZZZZ do so. :cry:

But coming back to your problem:

To send a file go to your bluetooth manager, (right down under) in your today screen.
make sure you're bluetooth is enabled.
Pair the device, usually create a "OBEX file transfer' between the devices.
Once you are on the system, usually a /storagecard you see in the menu left down a option; send file.
click, you are allowed to send 1 thing at the time this way.
So hopefully someone is able to improve this to a single click way to do it.

So many clicks it lacks the fun of it.

It's even more simple than that, all you have to do is upgrade your bluetooth to the 3900 build wich can be found on the ftp site. than all you need do is tap and hold the item you want to send and the message will appear 'send via bluetooth'

[mikeadams1985]

that is true and i have go that all sorted now :)

but..

it wants me to pair with every device i send a file to!!

i dont want to pair i dont want to use pass codes.

any help on this one???

my older phones (k700i, nokia 6600, p910i) didnt ask to pair with any device it just askd the user to click, accept or decline.

grrr why do i have to pair with everything grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[itwasntme187]

it shouldn't ask you to pair, it doesnt on mine, the other day i bluejacked my mate with pics and it worked fine, make sure you have the latest radio and bluetooth build and there shouldn't be a problem

[mikeadams1985]

[itwasntme187]

if you go to the wiki site and follow on the blue angel link you will find the link to latest radio, best off upgrade the rom!
