I am having a problem sending any files to and from the Xperia via Bluetooth. Anyone else having this problem?
From my experience must you and the reciever apply a connection between the devices, you chose a code and he enters it. Then you can send.
No this does not work. I have never had a problem sending files by bluetooth before. My friend has the same problem on his X1.
its pretty unfortunate, you have to pair the devices first - then you can send - i know its quite a long thing. but it wont work otherwise

Hey!
I just recently tried to share photo's with my girlfriend's Sony Ericsson T610. I can set up the bond ok, I can send pictures from her phone to my XDAII, but I cant send pictures (or contacts) from mine to hers.
I go to "beam file" select her device, & tap to send........ then it states "sending file 1/1" but that's it, you can see that a transfer is beinng attempted on her phone's display, but the prompt to accept or reject the file never appears. It takes something like 10mins for the XDA to report the failure, and you cannot seem to cancel the transfer - the word cancelling comes up, but then the screen freezes (you can still get to other applications throught the start bar)
Has anyone lese had this problem - will it be fixed by the bluetooth update, or the o2 update..... or anything?
cheers.
I have had exactly the same problem, same situation with a T610, 3 months ago on original ROM.
Haven't tried it after the ROM upgrade though. I'm anxious to know too.
whoops..me too..
it freeezes when i try to send files over BT to other phones!
Hmm..And I can't install BT Tools because it disable ActiveSync via Bluetooth..hmm..
Will try other thirdy part software..
Might have a POTENTIALLY useful piece of info for you here folks...
You see, I'm originally an Orange E200 SPV Smartphone user.
Sad as it might sound, there is NO inbuilt functionality in the phone (Windows Mobile 2003 based) for sending files by BT.
So some clever people who write a third party software File Manager app - Smart Explorer I think it is, decided to include there own support for Bluetooth sending of files in the program.
BUT - this is where things may start getting interesting...
What they found was that with the first beta, phones just like the SE T610 for example, could not receive files.
Testing by them, found that this was because certain types of phones could not receive files via BT, when sent at full transmit protocol speed, and no facility existed for them to simply 'drop down' to lowest common speed.
How they got around this, was by including an option, in the next version of their program, to include a little tick box, to "Send at full speed".
Thus, by default, lower speed is used, so as to ensure full compatibility.
But if you KNOW the device you were sending to supports full speed, you can just check the "Full speed" box as it is sending, at it switches to faster speed.
Relating all that babble and background info to the XDA2 etc, it isn't too far a leap of knowledge, to wonder if the same problem applies, whereby the XDA2 defaults to sending files by BT at FULL transmit protocol speeds, and of course, certain phones, such as the T610, can't receive at this speed, and simply sit there confused.
A guess, nothing more. But based on my experiences of the E200 smartphone, and what the problem was then, I can't help but suspect that the problem of certain phones not being able to negotiate full speed BT transfer, is what might be the issue here too.
Just a thought...
..And so..For transfer Files via BT we Must wait for WM2k3 SE?
..Ehm,Maybe u will find it useful:
I tryed transfer files to Nokia 3650,6600 (Symbian 60 and 70 phones) and sometimes the phones receive the files (but my XDA2 freezes and contiunue show me Sending...) and sometimes freezes at all and don't send nothing.

So, it means that if sending files from/to another bluetooth pocket pc, then it shouldnt has problem?
I'm the main developer of Smart Explorer for Smartphone 2002/2003. You're right Shadamehr. It seems that the Microsoft BT stack on SP 2002/2003 does not handle correctly the max packet size the remote device accepts. This happens with different devices, such as T68i or T610. I can't confirm yet that this problem also occures with XDA II (I don't have any T610 at the office).
We are actually porting Smart Explorer to Pocket PC (it was only an internal exercise and not planned to be made public). Actually, 95% of the job has been realized. I will try to find a T610 and test file transfer. I'll let you know the result. If there is some interest, we may think about putting this version on our web site.
from what i understand then many mobil phone makers block that
because background pictures and such are being sold
and if people could just share them they would not make as much money
my gf's nokia have a mmc card and i cant even put pictures on the it and choose them as background
if your xda2 can beam to other xda2's and to a pc then putting 2003SE on it is not likely to solve issues with other devices not being able to recieve from it
nice one jacoch - let me know when i can give it a whirl!!!
If its possible to send picuures from a T610 to another T610 and from a T610 to an XDA, it must be possible for a t610 to recieve pictures etc.
my XDA gone back for repairs but should be back with me soon 8)
cheers guys
Well I just tried with the T610 of a friend of mine. It seems that BT stack is even worst on XDA than it is on SPV. I have faced some hangs while shutting down the BT stack. The same appears when trying to send a file when the remote device ask to be bound first. The bounding dialog never appears and SE sit waiting from the answer of the OS. I'm not sure it's bugs as I tried on our development device that is not really fit :? (ROM 1.66)
Anyway, once the XDA II has been bound to the T610, transfer was fine (at slow speed only). I have sent successfully several 40Kb jpeg files. If we decide to make this version public, we will investigate and try to fix these troubles. :wink:
Pleeeeeease let me know if/when I can test it;
Is there any way that the Bluetooth application can be split from the bulk of the OS - to use as a patch for windows PPC? (as if you didn't have enough to do!)
:wink: cheers!
not only the T610
Yea, have tried even with the high end SE P900, still wont accept the transfer... but the PALM units were able to send from an to 7650 and other high end units...
It really sucks to thinks XDA2 is "HIGH END/TECH PHONE" but doesnt connect /file trans thru BT.
ok is bt but is maybe a pb with ir setting read this

I have no problems BT transfer to and receive from SE P800/900.
BT file transfer to mobile phones
I have I-mate running WM2003. As described above I can recieve files from SE T610/630/Z600 but i can't send files to these devices... it writes "Sending 1/1" and that's it... although on T610 the BT sign changes to the one indicating a transfer... nothing happens in fact... for half an hour it couldn't send a 20Kb picture... I have downloaded and installed Pocket Bluetooth Tools... but what I can't figure out is what is this software at all and how it works? If anyone knows how to make my I-mate (1.66.00WWE) send files to mobile phones, please explain it to me step-by-step.... THANK YOU!!!!
so can anyone tell me a program i can use for sending files over BT. i got HS messenger for texting over BT networks but it requires both devices to be bonded. is this true for all aps? im only looking to send files from my xda2 to another xda2 if it makes it any easier
Bluetooth problems
I have exactly the same problem as Rasputin. My gf has a t610 that I cant send images to.
Is there any development on that program that will allow users to send images to these phones?
is there some problem vith ms bluetooth stack, or just with my phone settings, but I cannot receive files from other phones via bluetooth? receiving over ic work superb.
I do not have a wizard but the Jasjar. Althought it may be obvious for you but I thought I should still post this because this is something which often confuses.
In order to receive files via bluetooth you must navigate to "start/settings/connections/beam and set a check mark in the box "receive all incoming beams".
I am not sure if this is exactly how it is in the wizard but maybe it helps.
Please do forgive me if this was something already known to you.
Regards
I dont know the exact cause of my problem, or yours. But i have had no sucess with sending and receiving files between a friends Magician & my wizard. All i have been able to pin this on is the M$ BT stack is poor and hopefully will be fixed in future ROMS. Hopefully your error is just a setting tho..
Where to start...
One of my phone lines on my account is my old 6700. The bluetooth and my car (2007 bmw 335i) worked once while the phone was stock, then never worked again. Then i upgraded to wm6 for the apache. The bluetooth and my car worked well for a while, then all of a sudden one day stopped working. I hated the trouble that it used to cause my, so i added a 2nd line on my account for my 'car' phone. I went with a motorola krzr after i was told motorola bluetooth stacks have no problems with most cars bluetooth stacks. I also had a samsung upstage before the krzr that had no problem syncing with my car, but would never send the correct information to my car i.e. when a call was coming in, it wasnt the correct caller displayed. The krzr worked perfect. Anyways, I smashed my krzr (after the lil nephew soaked it in saliva and the buttons stopped working) and was 'forced' to buy the new touch phone. Since purchasing the touch, i cant get it to sync with my car I had it ONE time come up in my list of bluetooth devices, but when i tried to connect, it would fail, then i would refresh and it would be gone. Please somebody help me. I was hoping that i could get rid of my 2nd line and finally have 1 phone! Is there an update for the bluetooth stack? is there a registry hack? is there anything?
Thanks in advance for anybody that can help me...

You need to download a cab file from Jetware Mobile. Just do a google search for it. Works on alot of PPC phones
well i tried it, and still no luck
this is the ONLY problem with the touch i have encountered so far.

I had the similiar problem. I was trying to send the file via bluetooth from Touch to Motoming. The devices were already paired. But I couldn't send file via bluetooth. When I selected file and tried to send it from explorer it blinked the device selection screen and I returned back to explorer.
To send the files via bluetooth I had to install resco explorer. And from resco explorer I was able to select the device, and send files via bluetooth.
Bluetooth in Touch is very buggy.
Hi All,
FTP enabled in bluetooth settings on device, but still cannot send file from PC to device. Sending from device to PC works well. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Just to let you know you're not alone. I've got the same exact problem.
Interesting thing. No problems with sending files from another WM device (P525, broadcom bluetooth stack) to my Touch Dual. But still cannot send file from PC (broadcom bluetooth as well)
Try to stick "receive all incoming files" (or something like that) in settings>>> connections. It worked for me.
Greez.
I have 2 TP2 both with Vodafone UK WM6.5 stock ROMs.
Have just tried to send pictures between them but get the message "Device does not support a suitable service to perform this operation"
I can send to an old sony but when i paired the TP2s it didnt give me the option to transfer filec for some reason?
Any one know if there is a solution or if this is something i will not be able to get round?
I'm also having all sorts of crap with bluetooth from connecting and not connecting to having to disable and enable all the time to get it to work again.
Havnt got it to work at all, never had a problem with WM6.5. strange they see each other but wont send and recieve
I have a bluetooth function in my Volvo. Worked as a charm with the O2 Live of my wife and my HTC TP.
Since I have the TP2, I can't get it to work. Tried to pair them from both sides and everything seems to work, until I want to call or get a call...
On dashboard screen I can scroll my contacts, but when it comes to call, I see the calling and connecting, but NO sound!!!
Quite frustrating, as I drive alot around.
Had this with the WM6.1 and hoped this would be resolved with the 6.5 (changing back to the original MS BT stack), but no...
Anybody fresh ideas or work-arounds?
Just spoke to HTC, they are unaware of any problems but he is going to get a couple of phones to try them out then get back to me so hopfully there will be a solution soon?
I am having a similar problem with the ATT Tilt2 version and my 2005 TL. Everything connects just fine, but if I try to make a call it just disconnects. If I delete and re-pair the phone it will work until I leave the car. Sometimes rebooting the phone also makes it work. I seem to remember an issue with my Kaiser early on and HTC put our a BT update. I have also reported this to HTC via the web form but haven't heard back yet.
Same here, was able to receive files from an i900 Omnia but wasn't able to send files to this i900 Omnia! Really strange!
Havnt heard back yet but have also just noticed other devices can not find TP2 even though i can find them.
Have made sure my device is visible and all bluetooth is on, trouble is i dont know anyone else with this phone to compare but as i have 2 bought months apart and they act the same im asuming its a fault with software and hoping theres a fix?
My problem is a little different, if I try to use activesync through bluetooth, my headset disconnects, which is pretty stupid.
I really wonder why the hell did they change the bluetooth stack from microsoft, giving us a fancy bluetooth manager interface but crappy performance / less features.
Any ideas or fixes? Cant seem to find any
I found the issue with mine... for whatever reason the BT while showing connected will not place a call while the phone is locked. I always lock my phone so I don't make calls and create bogus contacts in my pockets. I had Wn6.5 on my 2 yr old Tilt (TyTn II) and this wasn't an issue, nor was it with 6.0 and 6.1...
Anyone experienced this or know how to disable?
igo keyboard and mouse
tilt 2 bluetooth conectivity would allow igo keyboard and mouse connect to it software, cant get them to work.
any sugestions
It's not a good sign that Jet Blue doesn't work with the TP2 bluetooth stack.
any one off u have have tomtom installed if u do that can be the prob i have a tilt2 and with tomtom installed i coulnt use bluetooth take a look at a fix i made just incase that is ur problem
