I use a program called "bluetooth file" and it works perfect. By default my phone would only connect to my laptop as a hearing device "or something like that" would not transfer files till i got that app.
I've only tried transferring to a portable Pogo printer but it seemed to transfer with the share function with no problems at all, no need for third party app.

What share function? When i connet to my laptop all i see under bluetooth is option for "phone audio" ..Thats why i had to get the other program.

...thought i had read somewhere that a registry tweak was needed to activate OBEX via bluetooth - that files exchange isnt it?
Matt
no idea but im sure i done this tweak anyhow thinking the same as u and still cant access another mobile or something.
id like to do this, so i can connect to my desktop pc and browse files and copy from my xda, 8)
If you want to be able to browse your desktop pc you should really should be using a wifi connection instead of bluetooth, much quicker than bluetooth and greater range too. Totalcommander is good for this kind of thing since you can connect to windows shares with it.
i know im a noob but i have a few important questions i need to know.
1st. Can you use wifi without the data plan? I bought a unlocked qtek to use on cingular and i was wondering if using the wifi on my home router was free. I really dont want to see a surprise data charge on my bill lol.
2nd. If i bought my qtek unlocked, does that mean it comes already pre registered with the wifi G or do i have to install the cab i found on xda forums to make it G. Thanks again!

Hi ipodlover77 - welcome to the forum. Using wifi as you describe is free. With some of the newer roms it is already set to G, but if you have the same rom as me (see my signature) it will not and then install the cab you found - if you use the one i made it will affect the wifi settings only
oh, then can you please give me the url of the wifi settings you made? will the settings work on a unlocked qtek, used for cingular? thanks. and also, is it possible to stream youtube videos form the site on ur qtek? and finally, (sorry, i always have a lot of questions ) how would i know if im using cingulars data charge on wifi or my own? when i scan for networks on wifi, will it says like "pay"? thanks again for all the help.

My cab is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=254420&page=15&highlight=wlan
Yes the settings will work on an unlocked qtek used for cingular. You should be able to stream youtube videos via your wifi router although only those that suit your screen size will prob work properly.
You should never have to pay to cingular for using your wifi on your home router - to test this you can switch your phone to flight mode (phone radio off) and wifi will still work. The only time you would have to pay for wifi is when you connect to a pay wifi hotspot and then you would have to subscribe to the service first.
so what is the difference between the wlan g tweak and the wireless plugin tweak? and also after downloading the right one, do i just move it to the memory card via usb and open the .cab over the phone? thanks

wlan g tweak - sets wlan to g mode and wireless plugin is a today screen plugin showing operator, bluetooth and wifi status. Yes that is correct way to install

With the registry wizard this can do the g tweak for you, so you wont need my cab if you are going to install registry wizard.
Sorry dont know mms setting for cingular as i am uk - do a search it will be on the forum. What is book up? - do you mean look up? = google.
Ah ha quessed it now - backup! I use Spb backup and find it very good - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en

Try this then - (from coolsmartphone.com) TinyTube.net continues to get better and better. They've now made it even easier to find, send and watch your fave YouTube videos on your mobile. Take, for example, this YouTube video. Notice the URL - it's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCLYGoM1GrU. Now, if you'd like to watch that on your mobile all you need to do is type http://tinytube.net/watch/RCLYGoM1GrU into the address bar. Just copy the "RCLYGoM1GrU" bit and stick it on the end of http://tinytube.net/watch/ - this can then be used or forwarded to any mobile user via text or email as the address to get the video.
TinyTube fill a very important "gap" that other sites such as Google video have already plugged - being able to convert the Flash-based videos into 3GP format for viewing on mobile devices. TinyTube.net have now added an "SMS this video to a friend" feature for the USA with plans to roll out elsewhere soon.
Boot up software = how do you mean? for what purpose?

2nd) what is the fastest rom? Im using the updated qtek firmware and it is VERY slow. And i was wondering if there is a rom, that does everything the qtek rom does but alot faster.
3rd) how do i take that fricken vibration when i send a text message? I hate feelings the vibration for only sending a message.

Hey you have set up your own thread for Q's lol. First change your name to Wizardlover77 and we are in business!
If you just turn your wifi on via comm manager it will automatically search for you. Others use wififofum http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1020
Plenty of roms out there - which rom are you using? i.e. the numbers
There is molskis rom that gives you 30mb free ram and farias new 3.2aku rom just to mention a couple. Browse the wizard upgrading for a week or so before deciding to upgrade and you will need to decide if you have a g3 or g4 chip - ipl numbers - .001 = g4
Change your notification settings for messages in settings\sound and notifications not to have vibration.

Sprite is the only app that can restore after a ROM upgrade
ok. So when i turn off my phone, it says some data will lose? which exactly will the device lose?
and also if i turn off my phone. does meschles Wifi G tweak, erase? it says its still installed but are the settings messed up or is it perfectly fine still?
ok I thought of another problem. like I said before I don't have any data plan on my package so I'm surfing wifi over my own home router. ok so I found this really cool site that actually streams the videos to my phones WM. is this costing me data I don't have? the videos streaming url was like mms something. just want to make sure its not costing me money. and lastly do they charge me for downloading stuff from the internet straight to my phone while using my router connection? thanks in advance!! happy thanksgiving everyone!
Ok... did the usual search thing... haven't read or found any new information on this issue.
Considering it (BT FILE FUNCTION) to be one BIG omission on the Android platform and/or with the HTC handsets, I am interested to know if the functionality of file transfer (and whatnot) has been made available, will be made available or has been put into any of the ROMS... to ANYONE's knowledge?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
let me add on, does anyone know if SPP or HID profiles were added also?
I know damages Rom does send/recieve, stereo audio, and the basic Bluetooth stuff.
Darch legend does the same plus Bluetooth ftp.

Sorry double post.
**BUMP**
Wow... I find it hard to think with all the Dev's here nobody has ANY insight or anything to say about the BT issue? I know the profiles have been updated for the 2.1 release, but that's about it. No word of FILE functions? Wow...
Well, in any event, I appreciate ANY word on this subject.
TIA

Not sure if this is widely known or not, but BT file transfer works out of the box now. I paired it with my Mac and sent a file with no add-on software. I couldn't make that work in 1.5.

Note, That is a push from the computer to the phone. I installed BT File Transfer from Market to try phone to computer...no dice. It errors out. At any rate, it's an easy way to send a wallpaper or update.zip.

Hey guys,
I don't know if this has been tried or thought of. My mouse just died, and am waiting for it to charge, and I thought, hmm, it would be great if I could use my HD2 touch screen as a giant trackpad for my PC. The idea would be that you connect your HD2 to the computer via bluetooth or usb, and then launch this trackpad app which would really just give you a screen like what I have attached and then you have a trackpad! I know the app will be pretty useless for most cases, but it could be a cool replacement for some people.
Just a thought...

Be sure to google it and find the home page, there are some cabs floating around but they only have the phone part not the part that needs to run on the PC ...

Hi
Search for swiFTP on the market. It is a FTP Server for Android.
Works great!
ah, thanks
Or just plug it into your computer, like a USB stick. This isn't an iPod after all
The first thing I did was to plug it in.
But, nothing shows up here.
Or just search for websharing at the market...

Really? That's weird. For me it's 'plug - select mode - device pops up in Ubuntu'
yes, i had have the same problem. you must in preferences under the point network (i believe so, cause I havent my galaxy here now) look under the point usbconnection and than choose answering or mass storage. then its run. As I connectet I see its will connectet as webcam too but I havent try it yet.
