The only bluetooth functions I get on my MDA Pro are Headset and Serial Port. I'm desperate for File Transfer... does anyone know how to get it? Thanks!
They are there, just not visible..
Try sending a file to your Universal through BT, and it shall recieve it..
Make sure that the beam settings are "Accept all inncoming"
if you use the inbuilt file explorer on any file, you can press and hold, then select beam file. if bluetooth is on, it will:
1. search the infra red port
2. Search all surrounding devices with bluetooth on, and discoverable.
then you can just select where you want it to go.
Transfer files using bluetooth
Does anyone know how I could transfer a file from my Qtek 9000 to my Nokia N70 (Symbian OS) using BLUETOOTH. When I pair the two I get "Dialup networking” only I cannot find a way of transferring files from one device to the other. Please include step by step instructions if you know how.
Thanks

1. Enable Bluetooth on both devices;
2. Open File Explorer, go to the desired file, hold the stylus down (like right click on a PC) and choose "Beam File" (this works with Bluetooth as well as Infrared)
3. Choose Nokia N70 or its assigned device name when you see it on the list
File sent as a message not as a files transfer
Yes thanks i tried doing what you suggested, but it sent the file from the Qtek 9000 to the N70 -> recieved it as a message and i could not save the actual file anywhere on t he N70?
Well, what does the message look like? What type of file are you trying to transfer? I would expect you be able to save an attachment or something similar. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the Symbian OS.

Either I'm doing something stupid here, but.. if I send a file from my desktop to my MDA Pro (BT enabled, accept incoming beams enabled) I just get a message saying 'ftp service not found on target device'
If I explore available services I can see DUN and Voice Gateway... am I missing something?

Im very familiar with symbian OS but new with PPCs so should be able to help!
Install a file explorer such as fexplorer onto your n70. Fexplorer on the root page has a mail option, and when you enter it, you can see all the files recieved via btooth/mms. Copy the file and paste it to your desired location using fexplorer. Alternatively, if the file explorer you use doesn't have the "mail" option on the home of the sw, visit x:/system/mail (x= c or e depending on where messages are stored) and browse throygh the folders until you find the attachment and paste it to where you want.
Thanks
Thanks very much, i did what you said, but the mail opton was not there, instead i found the Inbox directory and there was what i was looking for, so thanks again...
I don't know if anyone remembers the old widcomm bt versions on blueangel, but u used to be able to browse other devices and stuff, well, I'd like to be able to do this, I miss this function....

something like this? http://www.silentservices.de/btCrawler.html
Browse and BT transfer data from deviceA to deviceB
I check BtCrawler it does not let you transfer files between device, what i am looking for is something like a file explorer where (once two devices are connected via BT) then one can copy files (using a fileexplorer type of interface from one location in device A to another location in Device B. Veyr easy stuff really but cannot do it anymore in Qtek 9000 WM5, whereas in my Blueangel WM2003 i used to have that exact functionlity, and i used to do it by transfering files from my Cellular camera to my PDA.

OK, got you this time. WM5 only supports Obex-Push (trabsfering V-Cards and stuff). It currently does not support Obex-FTP which is exactly what you are looking for. Maybe some future updates from M$ will add this functionality, so I hope...
cheers
Thanks, but if you find any software that provided the " Obex-FTP" on the WM5 PDA could you please send me a message.
isnt it possible that we can update the bluetooth stack to the widcomm one?

Hi
I was rather disappointed to see the poor BT support on my newly acquired iMate JasJam.
It supports almost no BT profile
In particular OBEX (file transfer).
I found some references to some BT extension to the Microsoft BT stack, but they don't seem to work.
Any ideas if there are ways to extend the functionality of BT with this device and add some common profiles like OBEX, FTP etc?
Thanks

Just wanted to start a similar thread. I was quite disappointed finding out that I can't receive e.g. a CAB file via BT! Though it sends all OK

Could it be because you need to turn on 'receive all incoming beams' under start>settings>connections>beams
try it. i heard that its coz of this.
Of course, this option is turned on!
Hi all,
Don't know if I'm missing something but i can send .CAB, .WAV, .MP3 etc files both from and to my SPV M3100/Laptop (or desktop).
Beam is on.
Gavin.

Actually, it should work - the MS BT stack has a pretty good OBEX implementation, as has also been pointed out in several of my, related articles; for example, http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1065&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
Probably it depends on firmware version... btCrawler self diag shows for me only OBEXObjectPushService, and only if that option is turned on. No OBEXFileTransferService at all.
Other services shown are not related to file transfer (audio, modem, serial ports).
Do you (who's able to receive any file) have OBEXFileTransferService on your device?
I have a problem with the OBEX File Transfer. At the moment i installed CRCs 13.0 Release.
I tried to enable this OBEX feature with the advanced config tool but my notebook still does not find the OBEX gateway.
How can I enable this feature? (Beam is already enabled)
P.S Even my notebook can not find the Obex gateway, my Nokia 6320i is able to exchange data with the hermes device
Hello all,
First of all I have to say that I'm a friggin noob when it comes to WM6.5 and HTC Sense PDAs.
I just bought a Diamond2 a few days ago and am trying to transfer files from my laptop to TD2 using bluetooth. On the laptop I have Bluesoleil (***.bluesoleil.com) managing my BT connections, and when I connect the TD2 it doesn't show File transfer service as available, but it it turned on on Bluesoleil. How can I activate this service on TD2? It would really help to have working.
Thank you all in advance.
Why dont u use the cable? it works much faster.
I usually do, but I don't always carry all cables around so it would be an alternative for those times. Anyway you didn't answer my initial question: What must I do to enable file transfers via BT?
Thank you.
Don't make a connection. Just activate Bluetooth (both devices), set Topaz's Bluetooth visible to other devices and select from your laptop file send via bt.
enable OBEX File Transfer Service.
you can use TD2 Tools 2d.
Use resco explorer with ftp plugin or total commander for mobile, and a ftp server on your pc, there are some good free servers available out there. Belive me WiFi is faster than bluetooth.
Bluetooth File transfer is not installed on TD2 by default. You need to install it manually (Bluetooth explorer, try search). That's the way I did it first but I don't know which file you have to download.... too long ago. An even better solution is try to find a custom ROM which already contains the BTFTP packages. But then you first have to find out how to flash ROMs
Is there an app or something for WP7 on my HD2 that enables Bluetooth file transfer?
I think bluetooth FTP is not supported by WP7
So I can't even receive files?
it is
Bluetooth OBEX or File Transfer is supported: see the registry entries, but I cannot figure it out how to actually make it work because the registry entries have the service OBEX enabled.
