Bluetooth file transfer fails when in standby

[rodentkj]

When trying to transfer a file from another phone to my Kaiser, if my phone is in standby, the sending phone can not connect and displays transfer failed.
It works fine when my phone is not in stand by and the display is lit up.

Three questions.

1. Is there a setting so the phone will accept incoming BT file transfers when in standby?

2. Is there a way to have the phone automatically accept the incoming file? I.E. Not have to select Yes to save?

3. Is there a way to change the default location that the file is saved to?

Thank you in advance.

Same here, I have to turn it on.. I find I don't have to unlock s2u2 or anything, but it does have to be on.

I think you can change the location in the Bluetooth settings, it's unchecked by default and set to \my documents\bluetooth share or such, I think if you check it and change it, it'll save it to a different place than just \my documents

When the phone is in stand-by its asleep.

Something has to wake it. And that's usually a button press or receiving a call.

To allow Bluetooth to wake the phone the Bluetooth Radio would have to be left on all the time. Depleting your battery much to fast.

I disagree. The Bluetooth radio is indeed on all the time. This is proven by establishing a Bluetooth Dial-Up networking connection to the the phone while it is in standby. Which wakes-up my phone. In addition, one can query the available services of the phone when in standby. Thus the reason I ask why the phone needs to be out of stand by when sending a file to it.

Other BT services can be used or established when in standby mode. Why can't file transfer?

see this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277187). The program says that it will allow you to set it to auto-accept bluetooth transfers as well as customize the save location. i do not see anything about when the device is in standby. do read my post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2325152&postcount=24) at the end of the thread though before install the application. latest version here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1024693&postcount=4).

Thanks for the program. But I'll pass. Too many issues as I read it.
