Have you tried the "blue tooth file transfer" app? It's in the market.
-e

work without application.

Juste lunch server FTP in blutooth parametre @desire.

I've had problems with this as well.

I've tried it without any extra app, just the btooth on the phone and it won't work. I have the FTP Server checked to be on and after I've paired with a mate's phone, I try to send a file and it complains that the OBS protocol or whatever is not enabled on the receiver's phone.

I have had luck using the app from the market, "Bluetooth File Transfer" (green/orange icon) but again, I often get the same OBS or OBT protocol error.

very annoying - I just want to grab a file and btooth it to a friend's phone. It really shouldn't be so difficult.

I do have EXACTLY the same problem! I tried it today with 4 different phones (motorola, 2 siemens and nokia)! If someone wants to send me a file via bluetooth it works like a charm but when i tried to send something to another phone it doesn't work.

Is this some kind of a software bug in Desire's ROM or what the hell is going on here?

Beside of this the phone is freakin fast compared to my old Polaris

i dont know what you guys are doing but the bluetooth works fine. just sent a photo from desire to my girlfriend`s old samsung. works like a treat. just have ftp enabled in the advanced settings

OBS protocol or whatever is not enabled on the receiver's phone.

keyword: receiver`s.

Explorer by Speedy Software

Hi,

I've just tried it with 'Explorer app' by Speedy Software which is in app market. It works flawlessly. Sent a 'apk' app to my Nokia E71 just to test and it works.

Same here, when I try to send a file via bluetooth it just fails...
