I've looked at several posts on a similar topic but not been able to find an answer.
I'm running the latest Qtek ROM...
My daughter is trying to send pictures to my Universal from her Samsung Z320i Mobile via Bluetooth.
It fails with a message saying unable to retrive service list.
If she trys to send a "contact/vcard" that works
The 2 devices have a pairing.
I'm able to send files to the Samsung with the Beam feature.
I have the recieve all beams option enabled
Looking in the registry the OBEX option is enabled (this is by default in this ROM) the only things that appear against this are vCard & vCal - this is why I believe the contact transfer was sucessful, and I'm guessing why the file transfer fails. Are there extra keys I can add to enable file transfer?
I have a MDA Vario (aka Wizard) as well and I can beam files OK between the wizard & the universal - but you would hope that they would work both effectively running the same software.
I don't currently have another make mobile with bluetooth that I can try.
My wife has a samsung and we are also unable to do it.
obviously the Samsung phone has a forward lock mechanism by Samsung. This prevents it from sending copyrighted material such as ringtones, images, animations, mp3 etc. to other phones.
This was used to be the case a couple of years ago when manufacturers believed they could make us pay money in order to download a wallpaper or a ringtone to our phone. The new Samsung phones don't have this lock.
I believe there is nothing you can do...
hi
i've a HTC TyTN, I have a question:
Is it possible to have more than one bluetooth connection simulaneously?
e.g. if U want to to send a file to 3 devices , using beaming in default file explorer it just send one put the others in pending untill the 1st is finished.
is there any software that send a file to more than one device simulaneously?
or receive from more than than one device simulaneously?
tnx
Dis might sound like a nood question but! is dere any possible way to root the mt3g to send ring tones threw bluetooth?
Before Rooting Try using this app from the Market for free ,
It worked great for me and doesn't require root to use it
its not what i want! i wanna be able to recieve files from other phones with bluetooth
The app I receommended allows you to receive and send without root , Don't Bump it until you've tried it !
i tryed but it only works with other phones dat have dey same program
The app worked for my Magic, sending file is normal but if you want to receive file, you have to browse for the remote folders on YOUR handset, instead of the other side "sending" to you.
they don;t have to have the same Program , I sent and received successfully with my brothers Sony ericcsson..........
I have a new MT3G and I downloaded that app.
I am running an eeepc with ubuntu 9.10 Beta
I can get both devices to see each other and passcode with each other, but the phone just can't see any files or anything. Settings on phone say, Paired but not connected.
Inside the file transfer app, it finds my laptop but when I click on it after pairing, it says no OBEX ftp suppport. I already have OBEX drivers installed on the ubuntu laptop.
Any ideas?
Bump for helpage.
Hey guys i want a program that can send ANY file on my DESIRE. i know that we can send music images and video but let's say i have an .apk on my sdcard i cannot send it using neither astro nor estrongs file managers and i couldn't find a way. is there any file manager that can send any file over bluetooth?????
Have you tried the "blue tooth file transfer" app? It's in the market.
-e
work without application.
Juste lunch server FTP in blutooth parametre @desire.
I've had problems with this as well.
I've tried it without any extra app, just the btooth on the phone and it won't work. I have the FTP Server checked to be on and after I've paired with a mate's phone, I try to send a file and it complains that the OBS protocol or whatever is not enabled on the receiver's phone.
I have had luck using the app from the market, "Bluetooth File Transfer" (green/orange icon) but again, I often get the same OBS or OBT protocol error.
very annoying - I just want to grab a file and btooth it to a friend's phone. It really shouldn't be so difficult.

I do have EXACTLY the same problem! I tried it today with 4 different phones (motorola, 2 siemens and nokia)! If someone wants to send me a file via bluetooth it works like a charm but when i tried to send something to another phone it doesn't work.
Is this some kind of a software bug in Desire's ROM or what the hell is going on here?
Beside of this the phone is freakin fast compared to my old Polaris
i dont know what you guys are doing but the bluetooth works fine. just sent a photo from desire to my girlfriend`s old samsung. works like a treat. just have ftp enabled in the advanced settings

Explorer by Speedy Software
Hi,
I've just tried it with 'Explorer app' by Speedy Software which is in app market. It works flawlessly. Sent a 'apk' app to my Nokia E71 just to test and it works.
Same here, when I try to send a file via bluetooth it just fails...

This is exactly the point, the OBS protocoll IS ENABLED on every phone i tried with!
Pardon my ignorance, but I thought that Bluetooth file transfer was not possible in non-rooted phones... isn't that so?
No, why would it only be possible on rooted phones. BT file transfer is a feature that most dumbphones have (recent anyway).
I've seen mentioned somewhere else in a long discussion that obex file transfer wasn't supported on current android versions but could be implemented in the future... coming from WinMo I was a bit surprised at this but I suppose it isn't so then...
still, I haven't been able to send files over Bluetooth, but I have indeed managed to receive them
don`t know, but i can send to and receive from other phones any my notebook without any special apps and complications. i can even play audio though bt to the laptop without any stuttering.
I just made some different tests with my desire and found a solution (at least for sending photos and videos)
After a clean Boot and the first time to use Bluetooth open HTC photo viewer. While flipping through the pictures you have at the bottom some buttons, one is for sending data via bluetooth. With THIS button i can send photos or videos to other phones.
But when i start for example Astro manager and want to send data with this program it just cracks up and nothing will be send! After this has happened the whole "bluetooth thing" on the Desire does not react anymore
If you want to turn bluetooth off the only solution is to restart the phone and turn off bluetooth afterwards!
To avoid this fault you should not try to send data through other programs except the HTC photo viewer!
Receiving data is never a problem!
Hopefully there will be a patch or so in the near future because this is totally ****! I do not want to only have the possibility to send photos and video

That is exactly what just happened on my phone too. I can also add that sometimes sending files from the gallery right after boot doesn't work with one of my computers however this kind of behaviour is common to other devices too...
[EDIT] I've also tried with the application bluetooth file transfer without success
guys you lost me on this one....i don't have problem sending the default items: movies videos images music........i have problems when i send ALL the other file types....apk, html for example and any file except media ones!!!
I've a problem sending any file type including images from anywhere but the gallery. so you can send images from astro or other file managers ?
[Edit ] you know what? I've tried that again and I actually can send 'normal' files from anywhere... trying to send any other file type doesn't show the option and trying to use bt file transfer resets the phone !
so I'm back at your issue
Quick update:
-Installed 'Explorer' from the Market and now I can send any file type. Thanks kepz
-Obex file transfer actually works ok now, I can browse the sdcard from my computer
-after installing "Bluetooth file transfer" and playing with stuff (BT Remote control apps as well) sometimes when trying some BT services the phone reboots. If I stay clean of those services no problems
-I still can't use the phone as a remote control for the desktop
Same here with BT File Transfer App.
I have 2 Desires, very very often (nearly every time) the phone reboots when trying to send or receive a file. It worked once, but never again, after the 6th reboot in a row i unistalled the app.
The integrated BT thing in ESExplorer works sometimes (not very often)
edit: i have absolutely no problem with sending files from my computer to desire, this works 99,9%! only phone to phone = insta reboot
Google should have better file renaming and management by now
Why does Google Messenger do this!
Ok if someone sends me a MMS I do not want the original file name changed!* This is annoying! Even though I know file name data can be renamed before sending, it does help if someone sends me something and whatever they originally saved it as shows up when I download it. Google desperately needs a file manager like (I hate to say it) Samsung, I do miss that from my Note 4 it was so easy to navigate all data and files on the device, but I digress.
Try it yourself if you have another device, take a picture of something and notice the file name, then send it via MMS to your other device and save the file. Notice the two file names are NOT the same can anybody tell me why this is WTF
