I have an Acer TM4052 running XP with SP2 I cannot get my XDA to send a file over bluetooth to the laptop. I've paired the devices and everything else I can think of with my limited knowledge. Sending a file from my laptop to my XDA works fine but when using the 2i to send a file it can't locate my laptop, both devices are on discoverable and all that other basic stuff
PLEASE HELP!!
Cheers
I've not had any difficulty sending files...except are you using Beam File or Send via Bluetooth?
I noticed that the Beam function no longer seems to check BT devices as the stack has a separate option in the context menu of a file now.

I am using the option to send files using bluetooth...this is really irking me! I can send files from the laptop just fine but from my xda to the laptop is no go
Discovered something else last night, I was able to send a file from my wifes I-mate just fine (i think she's using the widcomm stack) I've even downloaded the broadcomm cab file BroadcomCorp_BT1.0.0.3900 and still no friggin luck...... :evil:
o.k, didn't wanna resort to this but I AM NOW WILLING TO PAY SOMEONE A MODEST FEE TO HELP ME SORT THIS OUT!!!!
Have you check the bluetooth software's option in your laptop whether you have activated the file transfer and file pim transfer automatically ??? I recently encountered the same problem with you and stupid me that the solution to this problem is just one click at the option button. Hicks ...
the problem is not with the laptop, because i am able to send files via bluetooth to the laptop using my wifes I-Mate (XDA II) but whenever i try using my XDA IIi i get a message saying it was unsuccessful

Hey, i wonder if anyone could help me.
I have a belkin F8T001 bluetooth dongle and have upgraded to sp2. I am unable to get my XDA to sync with my computer. I can bond them together fine and transfer files between but the XDA never gives me the option for using it to active sync.
Sorry i know this question has been sort of answered before but i really cant seem to get this working.
Thanks in advance.

Not able to use BlueTooth File Transfer Service
Dear Friends,
Please if some one could help with this issue, i am using O2 XDA II Mini with IVT Bluesoleil USB blue tooth dongle, when i discover the services on my windows XP LAPTOP i get 3 services active,
1) Bluetooth dial up network service
2) Bluetooth serial port service
3) Bluetooth object pull-push service
i want to know how can i get the bluetooth file transfer service activated so that i can transfer my files from PC to Phone via bluetooth.
Currently i am using ActiveSync Explorer to do so.
Regards
Niks
I have the same problem,
I somehow was able to object push a .txt file, once, then never again. Then i gave up and just copied files using my card reader + SD card which is much easier.
Edit: I think it may have something to do with the M$ bluetooth stack, changing this to another stack might fix the problem. Let me know how you go.
Are you using the M$ BTdriver on your PC or your own?
Using all standard bluetooth drivers on phone and pc,
Bluetooth file transfer service issue

anyone need any help ?
The subject tells it all.
I've been looking for answers on many threads. I've asked questions on them for about a week or two... Still no answers...
So, I decided to create new thread.
The question is: how do you send *.cab (or other) files to the Cingular 8125 via Bluetooth?
I have Bluesoleil USB BT dongle and I can't install Activesync on my work computer. When I pair my phone with the PC and refresh services, all I get is BT modem and "Bluetooth Object Push." When I send the file via BT object push the PC will start sending it and then it'll give a disconnected message. Sometimes it sends the whole file with no warnings saying that the file has been sent succesfully, however it is nowhere to be found on the phone. (Searched via Total Commander)
Any suggestions?
How do you send files to your phone?
Doesn't anyone send any files to their phones from PC via BT?
ActiveSync will help
MargaL, not sure this is possible without having ActiveSync on your work computer. I have a BlueTooth USB dongle that I use to sync, but its through the ActiveSync program. From there you can click the Explore button to see a folder for your Mobile Device, then drag and drop away...is there another computer you can use (home?) where you can put activesync instead?

I have Activesync at home but the problem is that I don't really have time to sit on playing with the phone at home... I do it at work ;-) and the problem is that here I have Win 2000 NT and anyways if my boss traces out Active sync here, I think I might have a lot of free time to play with the phone and to look for a new job...
So... maybe there is another way?
Anyways... jorge_culv, thanks for your help...
i send files all the time without activesync. to be clear, i specifically don't use activesync, cause the only way i know in activesync is to explore the device, versus turning on bluetooth on two devices, right clicking any file, and choose "send via bluetooth" or whatever.
make sure your device is discoverable, the pc will find it, and send it
With the Widcomm BT stack everything worked like a charm - just right-click on the file you want to send in the Windows explorer and select "Send to"->"Bluetooth"... All the files went to the "My documents" folder.
A few days ago I installed the Bluesoleil stack that came with my new dongle and I got the same problem! :?
Seems like there is no way to send files via OBEX with the Bluesoleil stack - that software really sucks, Widcomm is so much better...
I tried this on my Mac and was unable to send the file. My Mac reported that the Wizard lacked the necessary services to handle an incoming file. I don't believe that though. Will try with the Wintendo later.
I wonder if this is a BT 2.0 vs. 1.2 issue?

BT 2.0 devices are fully backwards compatible - so that shouldn't matter. It works for me with the same dongle if I use the Widcomm stack instead of Bluesoleil, but I don't want to use Widcomm as it doesn't "cooperate" with my A2DP headset... :?
This is more than one subject just saves me posting twice.
1. Bluetooth - Ok i know how to use bluetooth, but what im asking for is some help to find a program to use that can "explore" other devices, im sure my brother had this on and old pda! I also had a program called Bloover2, made by trifinite.org that attack other phones and suck information off hence Bloover - Bluetooth Hoover. Anyway its a J2ME program that works on my Nokia Series60, i cant find any sort of software anywhere that is any where near close to this sort of programs for O2 XDA MINI S or even any PPC.
2. Activesync - ok when i connect my phone it is connected straight away ( connected by USB ), but it says Revieving Settings or something like that, anyways it stay like that for ages but thats not what is bothering me, the problem i have is, i can download files from the DESKTOP computer onto my Xda Mini using the explore funtion on active sync, but i can download files off the Xda Mini to the DESKTOP it says transfering but does nothing! I have used the search function and used the AND inbetween words and its crap, (sorry to who made it) but i dont find anything relating to the search.
Anyway if anyone canmaybe shed some light on any of these matter i would be grateful
Thanks
i have the same problem.
any ideas?

You can try Smurf. It works with older WM Smartphones but it might work with the Wizard since they both use Microsoft's Bluetooth Stack.

Are you connected directly to the desktop or through a USB Hub?
What OS are you using on your desktop?
Are you using a sofware Firewall and if so, did you enable ActiveSync as an exception?
Have you tried using Bluetooth ActiveSync
i gave up with the usb cable, im using infared for now till i manage to sort it out, that smurf program i found but it didnt work too well. thanks for your help tho

That's like saying "take the train" to someone that has car trouble and can't get to work--not very helpful. What if they need to use bluetooth due to lack of USB cable or a wifi-capable computer? I know it's not probable, but the bluetooth capability is there and should be able to be used if desired, even if it's not the fastest data-transfer method.
I too, have the same problem, though just two days ago I was able to send files.
Can't help you much as I got Windows 8 and Ubuntu.
But I had this kind of problems often on Windows 8, I had to unpair (from device and phone) then pair them again, each time I had to switch from Linux to Windows.
Anyway, to send files by Bluetooth from windows, try this:
Right-Click on the file
Then Send to
And choose Bluetooth Device
I never opened the storage card of my nexus from bluetooth on my PC, I think the connection is not very stable.
