Hi,
A bit new to PPC and the Magician, just got delivery of my i-mate JAM yesterday.
This might well be user error and a case of RTFM but I can't work out how I send contact information/ pictures/ mp3s or pretty much anything else to my JAM via bluetooth. I've tried sending files from my old P910 and also from a friends XDA IIi. I see no response on the JAM at all and the P910 just errors out saying it was not possible to send. The error message on the XDA was a little more meaningfull though I cant remember exactly what it was but something along the lines of the device not supporting the operation.
I've searched through all the posts on this forum and googled for an answer but not come up with anything yet
Its a brand new i-mate JAM with nothing extra on it running 1.11.0 WWE ROM, 1.11.0 radio version, 1.11.179 WWE ExtROM
THanks in advance for any help
You can use your File explorer and the send-to option to send files via bluetooth.
here is a challenge for all the pros in here :lol:
How to make this work(file explorer/resco explorer) with the Bluesoleil stack ?
How do you receive files/pictures/contacts via bluetooth
Have you tried this cab file " SwitchIT.CAB " ?
I had the same problem , i could send to another machin but not recieve anything. Install the SwitchIT.CAB onto your machine and enable Obex On this should solve the problem . Cheers

... or simply go into Settings>Connections>Beam>Receive incoming beams (checkbox).. After that, you should be able to receive both IR and BT incoming files.

Yes, that's all you need to do. My wife is constantly beaming appointments to my O2 Xda II mini from her Palm Treo 650 at home. When I next pick it up there are multiple items waiting to be saved. Works a treat.
The MS Stack the Magician uses only lets you choose whether to accept a file after it has already been accepted. If you recieve a 5 meg file, you'll get no confirmation until the transfer is complete, then it will ask if you want to accept.
i can send files to other phones / devices . but i can't receive.
I send Receive via Bluetooth, but not Send!
Strange - I'm able to receive but not send. To receive, I left my bluetooth settings to Discoverable. I also bonded my device with the other person's device.....interesting thing is it asks for Device PIN and as long as you both put in the same number, it seems to accept (I used 0000). The other phone (Nokia) sent me a file via bluetooth. Message came up on my XDA II asking if I wanted to accept a file sent by xyz. I accepted and it automatically put it in My Documents folder. Very fast too!
I'm using XDA 2 (not 2i). When I select file (hold the stylus down) file in File Explorer, there is an option to "Beam file" but none to Send via Bluetooth. The Beam File option is for Infra Red. How do you send via Bluetooth?
Can anyone help please????
Method for Sending via Bluetooth on XDA 2
Fergyuk kindly provided the following info :
Hi try the following
Turn on bluetooth on both devices
In file explorer click and hold the file and select beam file
you will see infrared tap to send and searching
the searching is the bluetooth looking for a device
after a short while the Bluetooth device should appear in the list
Thanks to fergyuk

File was under half-meg and it took about 5mins! is that about normal speedwise?
Hi Guys.
What software do you use to send files via bluetooth?
I believe the default file explorer cannot do this and I have tried GSFinder but couldnt see how to do it in that either.
I know its possible in Resco, but i wanted something a bit more light weight if possible and it is not free.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I send a BT file using the default file explorer. Who told you it can't do the job ? I even had problems sending a file using Resco file explorer, it won't let m send any file, I get error message.
How do you send files via Bluetooth in the normal file explorer? I can see options to Beam file, send via mms and email. when I choose beam its to do with Infra Red.
When I use Resco I had no problems, chose send then by what method.
Thanks for your reply.
You select the beam file option from the menu, then wait, it will first try to send via infrared then will look for bluetooth receivers in the area. I just found this out the other day myself. I also think you need to have receive all beam types checked also (which I think is the default) [Start/Setting/Connections/Beam].
I have problems sending files from a PC to the Wizard... how do you use bluetooth to send it over?
Can we send files from a PC to the wizard using bluetooth? Is there any other way to manage files on the PDA without activesync?

You are quite right! I chose that option and only saw the infra red option, my tip to anyone wanting to do this is activate bluetooth, ensure other bluetooth device is close and the press beam, it will search and find the bluetooth device!
Thanks tekknogenius
U can beam files via infrared only to windows and windows mobile devices!!!! I noticed this yesterday...U cant transfer files through infrared to other phones like nokia and sony ericsson...and microsoft themselves are accepting this fact...take a look at this link........

Me thinks you need to read a bit more carefully.
The issue in question affects WinCE v4.2, not WM5.
And if you test sending files back and forth between a Wizard and another device, you'll see it works just fine. I've done it with a SE T616 no problem.
So no, it's not a major bug in the Wizard.
Hi Roshan...
U need to read more here...but just for yr information get hold of a 3rd party software called as Resco Explorer and u can very well send files from IR/BT as well to any of the phones...
Pls note that some of the Nokia/Samsung/SE phones hv IR only to be used as a Modem on IR and not FTP is allowed..so in that case they won't accept the file from IR..
I hope this solves yr prob.

Nope, I sent all my contacts from an SE610 to the 8125 via IR, so it is not only windows. Reason I did this? Couldn't get BT to send more than 1 contact.... Go figure.

You can send all contacts through BT. Install the attached cab file on your device. In contacts, tap and hold on a contact. In the pop-up menu there is now an option to select all contacts. After all contacts are selected, tap and hold again and choose send contact. It should then beam all contacts by BT to another device. Mind you, the cab only works once, you'll have to soft reset to get the "select all contacts" option working again.
hmmm...
Has anyone tried to send a jpg file from HTC wizard to a symbian operated phone...like nokia 6260,3230.....or nokia6111 , sony ericsson t610....i tried all these phones but not possible...infact i tried with my friends htc wizard and faced the same problem....
My device configuration is like this
Model:O2 xda mini s
Rom version:2.21.4.1WWE
rom date:3/9/06
radio version:02.07.10
protocol versio:413.1.03
Extended rom:2.21.4.101
JPEG file via IR...to a symbian...better send via BT...but...I can't tell u bcos I can't recall as how many times I hv done that....I had used Nokia 3650 and iPAQ 1940 for a years time
U need to check the way u r doing
I tried to send from a wizard to and from a SPV C500 with no joy - but it seems to be the C500 lacks the software to beam or send it by bluetooth.
I have received pics from a Sagem MYX6 and MYX7 and a Sanyo S750 (which has wonderfully set out menus controlling a phone that does not work!)
Do you have ative the transfer option in connection tab?
This is necessary if you want transfer any file trow IR or BT.
checked everything...
my settings are all proper........enabled accept all incoming beams...now i am seeing that sending a file(jpg) to se610 through bluetooth is also not possible :-( file progress bar in se610 hangs in the middle of transfer....
I know that bluetooth is always there...but when we have paid so much then everything should work right...
the only problem is with sending it from htc wizard to any other device....receiving is not a problem!!!
have had a few problems with sending mp3s via BT to new nokia phones..IR works without any problems but is very slow
Is there a way to transfer files fron the 8125 to another phone or device over blue tooth...i got some ring tones that i want to send to a friend but when i click the options of the file it only has beam or mail...is there a way to send it over blue tooth...thanks in advance...
Rino
The beam option IS bluetooth!
Make sure your friend`s bluetooth is on and discoverable,tap beam and wait untill you see your friend`s phone in the list of devices.
Tap the `tap to send` text next to the phone name you want to send the file to.
