Android "Help" Required- I am developing an application for android 2.3.3 and have been facing real problems in coding the service of BLUETOOTH FTP(File Transfer Protocol) Service. Can any one have any idea about how to programmatically do it than using the Blueftp(medieval) free app in the market. -??

I'm currently learning C/C++ and Win32 for an attempt to write Windows CE applications, and I want to write an app that addresses the missing Bluetooth profiles on the MDA that 2003SE and most other mobile phones have. I know OBEX FTP is a major feature missing, but I'm open to ideas ...
is there any kind of free software that will allow me to browse and transfer multipe files between to pda's via bluetooth?
I want this not for malicious acts but so that me an my wife can share pictures and info between our phones in a file explorer fashion instead of one at at time.
Most Windows Mobile 5.0 & 6 devices are shipped with Microsoft Bluetooth stack, only few of them use others (like Widcomm Bluetooth stack). Among all the Bluetooth services that may be implemented in the stack, OBEX FTP is the most common service.
OBEX FTP Bluetooth service can be used to share files through Bluetooth, not only by sending files but also by allowing remote devices to browse local shared folders and download files.

There exists a Directory Traversal vulnerability in the OBEX FTP Service in Microsoft Bluetooth Stack implemented in Windows Mobile 5.0 & 6 devices. A remote attacker (who previously owned authentication and authorization rights) can use tools like ObexFTP or gnomevfs-ls to traverse to parent directories out of the default Bluetooth shared folder by using ../ or ..\\ marks. This means the attacker can browse folders located on a lower level, download files contained in those folders as well as upload files to those folders.
The only requirement is that the attacker must have authentication and authorization privileges over the OBEX FTP service. Pairing up with the remote Windows Mobile device should be enough to get it. In case the attacker succeeded in getting the proper privileges, further actions will be transparent to the user

I don't see this as a vulnerability, it has its good and bad use. the only way for to even get in to the device is to pair with the device, and only an Ass-hat would actually pair a device they don't know.
I think there was an app called bluetooth explorer which allows the option to explore folders on the connected device (don't really remember if that was the name)
can someone please tell which other mobile OS offers the option to send files over bluetooth? I'm just curious, I think WinMo offers this but I don't want to sound like an ass-head declaring this as fact.
it would be a real vulnerability if the attacker could do all that without any user intervention
Hi, I'm creating a free application for Android that uses GPS and GPRS Internet connection. And I need help, anyone can give me the source code of some examples of applications that use GPS and GPRS?
Greetings.
I am working for a advertising company and tagged to lot of content providers and broadcast to mobile app using own tablets mostly used in hotels...
We have a customer at other country also want a same but required some kind of device like ( Mac mini) which can pull data from our main server and storage the data locally.
Next this device will broadcast the data to the users own handset by using our android app.
The device will work as a Hotspot and when user mobile connect to it, they were able to view the contents..
Question here.... can a andriod app receive data from our main server and store locally and then allow to broadcast the data to users own mobile phone through our android app
I might not be clear on my working.. Do ask me question to clarify...
Android can receive the add easily when it is online,ok.
But wen the conection disconnects,the ad is still there on the app untill it closes.
As when the app closes the ads data vanishes and nothing will be showed.becoz ads are temporory..
This what happens on my device
Ask me for any clarity on my answer...
