I was trying to send my brother who has a my touch3g a few files and couldn't get our phones to connect. What's the deal? Do I need an app?
Both our phones had bluetooth on and were discoverable. I did file transfers before on my old phone. Help please fellas.

I only use bluetooth to exchange files with my laptop. I use dropbox to share files with friends and find it easier and more convenient.
Do you have to use drop box? Can the phone do it stock?

I never tried a phone-to-phone bluetooth transfer with my MyTouch 4G. I stopped that a while ago when most of my friends got iPhones and could no longer do bluetooth transfers. I don't see why it shouldn't be able to do it though. If I had another phone to connect with I would test it.
I've transferred from myTouch 4g to blackberry curve. Thats without an app. If I'm not mistaken the myTouch 3g doesn't support phone to phone. Was introduced in the myTouch slide. Correct me if I'm wrong.

No, you don't need an app. You can transfer and receive pics, music, videos and probably more as long as the other phone supports it. If not supported then yeah app would be useful.

On the myTouch 4g long press on the item you want to transfer or hit the share button then hit via Bluetooth. That's how I did it. Now if you're trying to transfer to the myTouch 3g, remember it does not support file transfer through Bluetooth. That's when you could probably use an app. Try "Bluetooth file transfer" app in the market if transferring to mt3g. That's the only one I've checked out before.
Try transferring to different phone as well without app.

Are you trying to download them over wifi? Apparently sprint doesn't like that, try it on 3g

This. Sprint's MMS server is not accessible over the public internet, thus you must download on 3G.
Most Sprint phones will automatically run the data transfer over 3G (without manually turning off/on wifi), not the Epic though.
That said, many of the custom ROMs resolve this issue (including Heroic, which I run).
Thank you sooo much to all that replied.. because that's was the problem. I had my wifi on.. I guess its time to get a custom rom..

I just perm rooted. And I heard about t mobile charging for tethering. Will I still be able to use the 2.0.5 wifi tethering app for root users without getting charged?

Well I use the stock app and T-Mobile says is free (for now). You could use other apps like Barnacle Wi-Fi Tether. You could also use the andorid-wifi-teather app http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/. I like the latter of the two the best.
If you don't use the stock tmo app, you should be fine... we won't know till Nov 14th tho...

ive seen a couple people saying they gotten wifi tether 2.0.5 to work fine (before permroot) but it doesnt seem to work for me (kernel does not support tethering)
How did you guys get it to work? correct me if im wrong but temproot/permroot shouldnt have anything to do with it cus its saying its the kernel... (unless this is the generic error message)
perm rooted, with s off, I just dl 2.0.5 pre13
Works fine...

Has anyone heard/figured out how TMo will be "stopping" tethering (update, account sync file, etc.)?
I will not accept an OTA (won't get one while rooted anyway) and have account sync turned off.

this ones a mystery so far... I just dont think tmo would announce the charge then make the change.... I would guess its already done (key word guess but who knows this change could of been made months ago... before the g2's release)
Anyone see a change yet or figure out how they are going to charge for tethering?

OOVOO is a very popular video chatting service. The only problem is that on android, they don't keep the app's device check updated with the latest phones. I just bought a Sensation 4g and it isn't compatible. At the same time, it will say the same thing on my Mytouch 4g when I switch to certain roms other than stock. The Mytouch 4g is a supported phone by the way. This is why I believe that if someone can remove the device check, it will work on a lot more phones. Is someone able to do this?
Download the app outside of the Market, it'll work.
Can anyone post the apk of oovoo without device check I can't find it all
