Sending pictures via bluetooth

Hi eveyone, I just got my HTC Magic a couple of days ago and have been finding my feet with it since.
So far so good only I have an issue with sending pitures to another phone via bluetooth.
All past phones I have had for as long as I can remember this has been a fairly straight forward process but I'm getting nowhere with my magic.
I can pair with other phones but it says "paired but not connected". When I select the connect option nothing happens? And if I select the photo and select Menu -> Share bluetooth just isn't an option?
Anyone point my in the right direction please?

Android does not support any bluetooth services other then "hands free".
This means that you can only use BT headsets.
Android (either G1 or Magic) phones cannot natively send files over BT, cannot use BT a modem, etc...
There is not third party tool so far to send files via BT to other devices.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Wow , no big deal I guess, I'm just tight so used to send pictures via BT rather than MMS. Perhaps one of you clever "app maker people" will see the hole in the market.

I'm missing this functionality too

Since you have the entire internet in your hand, I can't really see this being an important feature I'd much rather just publish the photo on Facebook, mail it or something (and if the other device is primitive and the picture necessarily has to be transferred, use MMS^^).

Isn't Google gonna release an update for the HTC magic U.K to have this feature???

It's not just about pictures, two days before I got my Magic I was on a business trip in Portugal, we had a long boring flight home so a colleague asked me to download his favourite Podcast via the hotel WiFi and Bluetooth it over to his phone for the flight (his roaming charges would have cost a fortune). I did that fine with my phone at the time but couldn't do it now with the Magic.
I have also used my phone as a sort of USB storage device, quickly putting files on it from my laptop and walking to another laptop on a separate (and non-connected) network. BT is easier than faffing with USB ports or wires
Just my 0.02 GBP

There's now an app for it in the Market called Bluetooth Fileshare Bluex for €1.40

When i search for the Bluex app in the market i cant find it! I also tried scanning the barcode link in Cyrex but then the market just says not found! Where do i get this app? I need it badly!

I found it under Bluetooth Fileshare Bluex. I bought it this morning so it is there. Try searching for 'bluetooth' and check though the list that comes back - there's not that many.
This app works a treat the only thing missing is Bluetooth from a PC to the phone. Phone to phone and phone to PC work just as hoped for. Developers site here Worth a few rating stars in the market.

Does anyone know if this app could be developed for non-rooted phones?

I'm also in denmark. I need this app, a phone withouth bluetooth fileshare is so... iphone ie, ridiculus.

This omission is probably due to Google being a US based company and I have never even heard of anyone in this country transferring a file over bluetooth. It's either a nonexistent feature on our phones or just one of those things that nobody takes advantage of. In the US, bluetooth is synonymous with hands-free headsets and little else. If you ask ten people you might find one who has heard of A2DP, but that's about as complex as bluetooth gets around here.
Most people use the word bluetooth as a noun to describe hands-free headsets. "I'm driving so I'm calling you with my bluetooth!"

What an odd world we live in Transferring files via bluetooth is almost an everyday occurrence here and a modern phone without this function is extremely rare. Just glad it's on the mend.

HTC sync 3.0

Did anybody tried the new htc sync 3.0 with htc hero on android 2.1? They say on htc official site that it's working on htc devices with android 2.1 but on web it's said that this update is just for htc wildfire. I cannot download it for a trial for the moment.

I think I got the answer and I will wait. By the way, HTC sync really sucks!

That looks so much better than the old sync. Did you delete Sync 2 before installing? Did you have any problems or was it nice and easy? Are you on a stock ROM?
Duh ..... just looked at your sig - please ignore last question

I wasn't using any sync before hand but it's always wise to uninstall anything you have application wise before installing the new versions.

Not true - if the application is written correctly it shouldn't matter whether you have an old version installed. It is incredibly rare than a new version of software will break older ones unless they explicitly state that it will (i.e. there has been a major code/structure change).

It is not a Microsoft update, so it won't break older code.

It's not true. Well on forums I see people doing 'upgrades' to applications and I see people face problems all the time doing it this method.
Theres plenty apps there has been issues with including java/vmware/flash beta ...... et al.

When you consider how many of millions of people update their software like this and out of that you might get a few thousand with problems you're still talking a very minor amount. There is no need to uninstall every app you want to update. This would take ages. I don't care if you want to do it for every app you update but don't recommend this to others as its just going to put people updating software when they should be.
And i've never had a problem updating java, vmware or flash (even using the beta versions) from older versions to newer ones. Java used to leave behind the old ones but it never negatively affected a system (aside from filling up the hard drive). VMWare is worthless anyway (get VirtualBox - support the open source community). Flash is made by Adobe - of course its going to have issues - they make software for Mac's then break the software and release it for PC. Having said this I very rarely have an issue with software updates unless it is explicitly stated on their website that it requires you to uninstall before updating.

hi

Hey guys,
The HTC Sync DOES and DO work with HTC Hero.
I did uninstall the previous version and drivers and installed the new one. Yes it does tell you that its not recognized and the HTC Sync is not found on your computer when the phone trying to search for it. But I left it connected to go and search on Google to find out why, Guess what .. It run by itself telling me that I have Hero phone and what I should call it!!
Now I am syncing my stuff and its just working fine, just leave it for 2-3 minutes and it show up by itself

How to update HD2 WP7? (800705B4 error)

I'm getting the error: 800705B4 when trying to update my phone.
So I found a solution on Microsoft's website.
However, the instructions say turn the phone off, which is fine.
Then turn it on, which is fine. But then hold the camera button immediately after turning it on to put it into update mode and this should appear on the phone's screen:

You can not update your phone as it is not a Native Windows Phone device

I see. So none of us HTC HD2 WP7 users will be able to update unless we flash a new rom or something?

ive been trying to find out exactly what is happening, i suspect its driver related, or at least partially driver related. ive been trying to find out exactly what is happening and why it doesnt work, but i cant find out exactly what driver is installed when a HD7 goes in to update mode,
ive asked on the HD7 forum but no one seems capable of telling me what VID and PID is associated with the device when it goes in to update mode.

Let me know if you find a solution.
And out of interest, does everyone get this problem when trying to update?
Because I haven't seen any threads similar to this one on xda, and I would've thought at least one person would have tried to update and reported their error by now?

I do. I also can't enter in update mode with my HD2. Absolutely the same situation as you ...

ive given up, i dont have the money to get an HD7 and the hassle of trying to get someone else to do things to their HD7s is too much, im still very much of the opinion that at the very moment updating fails, Windows desktop identifies the device as a LEO device, its not a coincidence, it might not be the whole story but im sure its a big part of it.
to be honest, i really cant be bothered updating the ROM or reflashing as we will need to do, im going to wait until we have some worthwhile updates, ideally even some kind of back up program so i wouldnt need to do it again, in the mean time it works just perfect the now so im not to fussed.

Look people..YOU CANNOT UPDATE THE HD2 WP7 ROM USING ZUNE NOR ANY OTHER TOOL CURRENTLY OUT THERE!!!!
WPSupportTool does NOT work on the HD2. Chevron7 Updater (in my case and I haven't heard anyone else having success) does not work neither!!!!
As for not flashing any new updates to WP7, to each is own, but how much stuff have you got loaded on your phone that you wouldn't want to re-flash with WP7 releases?
I personally can have all my contacts, calendar entries, most of my marketplace and sideloaded apps, and 6 email accounts loaded on to my phone after a flash inside 45 minutes. And it wouldn't take long to put customer ringtones and alerts, and any music/video on there through Zune. It's not as though we have anything to flash again anytime soon. Release 7008 is it until the NoDo release is put out by DFT. Who knows when that is coming, although I've heard gossip it's supposed to be in the next couple of weeks.

Chill mate, think he gets the picture already, we know it doesn't work, I would like to find out why it doesn't, its nit a matter of being impossible, its a matter of finding out why! As for reflashing, I have several apps that are essential, they do not support skydrive so any reflash will mean me losing the data, although in saying that, with everything being sandboxes it might be possible to manually locate and copy it....hmmm there's an idea =). Next project set!

of course, little bit later, we can hack more easily then now. but when i connect the phone to pc. it identifies hd7.

If there was a solution, I think the XDA cooks would have found it by now. Demanding aren't we. WP7 was never supposed to be run on the HD2. The entire OS and UI was built around hardware criteria driven by Microsoft to the phone manufacturers.

Error Code
I also get an error code : 80180048 when I try to update my hd2 win7 with zune. Has anybody also received this message and has it been fixed by anyone yet? Will we be updating any time soon without re-flashing?

windows live

Just recently I (spent 5 days) putting wp7 on my HTC hd2. It's a few days later and this is the 1st time I've had a chance to fool around with it. It seems that every time I try to do something it wants me to sign into windows live. I have a windows live account and can use it to sign into my hotmail account, with no problems. But every time I try to sign in on the hd2 now (say, to access marketplace) it tells me there is a problem and I have to phone them to get a code. Can anyone explain this to me. Thanks.

HD2 not official WP7 device and you must contact Microsoft (on English language) via chat or call and ask for Live activation code for HTC HD7

yes but he is beginner and he ask for help for activation code... answer is: get code from Microsoft and enter this code in phone... and thats all.... dont confuse beginner with registry editors, reading keys.... and for what to read if alredy get it from MS? this stuff for people who have also original WP7
simply every time when flash new ROM again write own Live activation code from MS and all is ok....
nothing more....

Thanks everyone and especially dxdy who is very right in saying I'm a beginner. So........an activation code! WHY! I'm about two sec from throwing this hd2 in the bin. It's never ending getting wp7 up and running. If and when I ever get this Fing activation code, what's next?
I'm I going to spend the rest of my life just trying to get the phone to work and not a min actually being productive with it?
Now, my problem is, I'm now in Malaysia and the hd2 has an American Sim card in it which won't allow me to make calls here (not I would if it could as the cost would be prohibitive). Somebody mention contacting MS (dam them to hell) via chat. Could you expand on that? Thanks.

TicWatch Pro 3 LTE and eSIM

Please, give me an advice.
I bought a TicWatch Pro 3 LTE.
I've received eSIM from my operator (T-Mobile).
I would like to import it into my watch.
But in the Mobvoi application on the phone I do not see the option "Communication settings", "Scan eSIM QR code", etc ...
And on the same network (T-Mobile Czech) with a similar eSIM.
I'm sure it worked on the older model (Ticwatch Pro 4G / LTE), see attached pictures.
There used to be an option "Scan QR" and the possibility to choose "Other" operator. Now it's gone.
It just looks like the current version of the Mobvoi application has lost this option (?!).
How should I proceed? Will it help to install some other APP? Which one and from what source?
Thanks!

In current Mobvoi app on my smartphone, there is no option to install the eSIM :-(
So how can I make it work?

I'm searching for the same solution. Unfortunately there are no feedbacks from Mobvoi about it.
Maybe they will release a new app version that will unlock this feature that was already available on previous models.

There is no visible option. I think the same, they will enable this feature to this new model. Right now the app seems to "detect" our LTE version like a PRO 3 GPS without eSIM support.

hi the story behind the scenes:
Mobvoi has launched the ticwatch 3 LTE exclusively in cooperation with vodafone.
Unfortunately right now there is no chance to use it with e.g. an T-Mobile e-SIM. (i do have the TW 3 LTE and also an T-Mobile DE Contract)
After launch of the Ticwatch Pro 4G it was the same thing...weeks later they opened the esim functionaltiy for the other providers.
The option "Scan E-SIM QR CODE" is only visible in the mobvoi app when the smartphone is logged in in a vodafone network.

That's a bummer, they need to make the e-sim available to T-Mobile and other carriers...

I have moved all of my development efforts away from XDA.

The way is actually quite simple - I have a dual SIM phone (note 20 ultra) and one of those SIMs is indeed Vodafone.
I did the following:
1. Switch my primary SIM to Vodafone (could achieve the same thing by just inserting a vodafone sim temporarily.)
2. Force close and relaunch Wear OS app on phone
3. Using newly available "Add a Vodafone SIM to your watch" (or similar) option in Wear OS I selected to Scan a QR code - then just scanned the QR code for the EE SIM (it kept calling it Vodafone in the WearOS app but I completely ignored that and added it anyway.)
4. Restart watch
5. If you get the same result I did - success! You are now connected to whatever network you want.
6. Switch back to your normal SIM on your phone and the watch will remain connected to whatever network you scanned the QR code for.
Really hope this helps someone else!

My case is very similar. I'll try it when I get an eSIM card.
Thanks a lot for your explanation!

Sounds great!
Is there a chance to order the needed(vodafone) SIM via internet with international delivery (to Czech Rep.)? Do they have a prepaid (burner) card?
Or could you give me detailed instructions how, where and what to buy? I'd ask someone I know in UK and she will send me the SIM in a letter.
But: will it work in roaming? I mean: if I obtain the Vodafone UK SIM and if I insert it into my dualSIM phone here in Czech Rep, would I be able to scan the eSIM QR code and install it into my watches?

Thanks!
I hope some cheap prepaid/burner VodafoneUK SIM will do the work.
I'll ask my aunt in UK to send me one.

Si, he probado con O2 y funcionan las llamadas, tal como se indica anteriormente, pero hay que hacerlo con la sim principal sobre todo y funciona bien
Mod translation
Yes, I have tried with O2 and calls work as above, but you have to do it with the main sim mostly and it works fine

Thats awesome news! Did you manage to get number sharing working between the devices?

I just ordered a pay as you go sim from vodafone (for free from their website) after reading this! This is great news! Have you managed to share your number between your phone and your watch?

I dont know if you've tried, but I just ordered my ee paired esim. Should arrive in the next couple of date. I'll let you know if number sharing works.

Waiting for my Voda pre-paid SIM, and going to order soon the esim watch too from Mobvoi, just waiting to receive the 200 Mobvoi-dollars off coupon (means 280€ off the purchase price) to buy the watch. Esim card will come from T-mobile Hungary.
