hey, i recently got my touch, since then i've tried recieving images from my friends via bluetooth. they send, and my phone said its recieved them, however they are nowhere to be found =/
i then wanted to see if it was just me being an idiot, so i plugged my touch into the computer, send myself an image a certain name, which i then searched on my computer. if the file was on the touch my phone would have found it?
any idea what my phones doing with the files and how to sort it?
thanks.

Hello all,
I have not too recently got my first mac. Athough i can't sync I can still send files via bluetooth.
On OSX there is a option to "Browse Device" This allows me to see the files on mobile phones. Tried it on a nokia,samsung and sony ericcson and they all worked.
However it doesn't on my M500 Do i need to turn something on my phone to get this to work?
I also have wi-fi but I don't think you can browse the phone this way either.
Hoping someone might have got this to work in someway. Thanks
Just bought an IOGear bluetooth adaptor for my pc. I installed it fine but when I try to connect my Hero, it doesnt show up. Has anyone successfully paired their Hero with Windows 7 using Bluetooth? Dont see why it wouldnt find my phone. I made it discoverable. :Stumped:
Pair it to do what?
You can't transfer files between the two until the Hero is updated by HTC.
Well i thought maybe I could transfer music, files, contacts or whatever. Maybe make calls using my pc or something stupid. I dunno, thought I could do some cool sh*t with it but I guess not. What a waste. I knew I shouldnt have bought it. Oh well, its getting returned until this phone can have some use for it.
Ye no file transfers until HTC update our Heros (shouldn't me more than a month or two now).
You may be able to make calls and send SMS from your pc though with some specialist software for your PC/MAC. I used to be able to answer calls and send texts straight from my computer with my HTC Diamond (windows mobile). There may well be a Android version of such software if you google it.
My evo does not seem to want to connect to my PC. I have all correct drivers, etc installed, as the evo used to connect. Now, I plug in the usb cable, get the connection sound, the choices screen comes up, then the pc drops the connection and I hear the disconnect sound. I read an earlier post that had the same issue, but with no replies. Has anyone had this happen to them? If so, is there a solution? Thanks! BTW... this site has been invaluable since I got this EVO to play with. Hope you all are having a great night!
Hey all.
Earlier today I dropped my phone and the screen cracked. The screen is unresponsive, but the phone still works (the device is recognised by my laptop when I plug it with the USB cable, I am still receiving email/facebook/texts notifications, etc.).
Since it's going to be a while until I get it repaired, I'm looking for a way to access or import to my laptop the notes I had on Google Keep, as I need them for my work.
Is there any way I can access those notes using my laptop?
Thanks!

Already tried that, for some reason they weren't synced and I can't see any of them there...
Can I access them through any system files on my laptop?
Basically i can send files from my comp to my S8 no problem using bluetooth but if i want to send a file from my S8 to my comp it won't send? Any ideas? They are both paired but when i try sending it just says "file not sent" . This was actually a problem on my previous phone too but i just never attempted to address/figure it out!
Anyone know what the issue is?
Anyone?
Never mind..... Just figured it out! Sorted

It was got to do with my imac settings! I had to go into system preferences and enable file sharing
Problems sharing/sending photos via Bluetooth - Galaxy S8
I am using a Medialink BCM20702A0 Bluetooth device to try to send photos from
my Galaxy S8 pix gallery to a Windows 7 computer. I installed this device on a new
Dell Optiplex W7 computer and it was working just fine for 4-5 months. Now all of a
sudden, when I try to share a photo via Bluetooth I get only a "File not sent" message.
Have tried restarts, reinstall of the BCM20702A0 device, pairing, repairing-- revised
drivers-- everything I could think of. It finally worked and sent one or two photos for a day or so and then fails again with the "File not sent". I transferred the BCM20702A0 to another Windows 7 computer and was successful in sending a few pictures, and then it failed again.
I have been able to send (Bluetooth) one .jpg from the computer to my S8 phone, but
the S8 will not Bluetooth my photos over to the computer. Any ideas on what could be wrong would be most appreciated!
