I've got Bluetooth working correctly, I can get to my device via OBEX FTP without problems, I can send files via OBEX PUSH using f.e. builtin photos application (of course only for photos).
My question is how to send any file via PUSH? F.e. on Samsung Galaxy S in file manager (estrong, astro) if you long tap on a file -> send you've got bluetooth option. On desire there is no such sender registered.
Isn't this supposed to be standard android functionality?

I got my Pro2 yesterday, but soon I found that HTC used WIDCOMM Bluetooth driver on Pro2, which I don't like very much, I prefer the old Windows driver.
Here is the problem, when other devices send a file to me through BT(OBEX), my Pro2 requires a passkey(the same issue on Pro can be solved by unchecking the related box on the bluetooth setting page), and I can't find any setting in the Bluetooth interface about disabling passkey requirement. OBEXInboxEX doesn't work with the new WIDCOMM driver too.
It's annoying when someone wanna send me a file, we have to pair first or enter the useless passkey.
Anyone else using Pro2 has the same issue ?
EDIT:[SOLVED BY REG HACKING]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\BTConfig\Services\0002]
"Encryption"=dword:00000000
"Authorization"=dword:00000000
"Encryption"
0: No passkey is needed.
1(def): Requires passkey if the file is sending by devices NOT on the paired list.
"Authorization":
0: Receive all files automatically without asking.
1(def): Ask for each file if you wanna receive.
Another issue comes along with the new driver: I can't use Resco File Explorer to send a file through Bluetooth anymore, it always gives me a "Failed to activate Bluetooth device" message. Though, the system File Explorer works, but I hate using it.
ObexInbox is not needed anymore. See in btooth settings > Advanced > File Transfer.
The best is "Save file to storage card when present".
If i'm not mistaken, if we set path to storage card with obexinbox, file is not saved when sd card is not exist.
Total Commander also dont have the send via btooth. When using resco, ur btooth is on or off?
Edit: TotalCommander v2.5 Beta 1 support Broadcomm/Widcomm stack.

I saw the setting about file saving folder. But OBEXInBox shows a message box when receiving file which includes current speed, file name, precentage and time remaining. The current Bluetooth interface doesn't. I prefer OBEXInBox rather than the built-in one.
Resco File Explorer gives the same error message no matter BT is on/off/discoverable. Look at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521972#9
I think Resco uses the Microsoft Bluetooth interface/API/whatever , but the official ROM just doesn't include the Microsoft Bluetooth interface/API/whatever.
Hello,
I would like to send automatically via email my PPCpimbackup .pib file.
So at given time a file is created, and I'd like it to be sent via email as attachment.
On windows or linux I'd use a scheduled task to use sendmail blat or mutt or uuencode to send the attachment.
I suppose that there is a way using mortscript. Any ideas
The app is scheduled to create a backup of data and specific files & folders into a zip file. The directory is given and could keep only one file per time if there was no fast way of choosing the file to send
I think it would be great if the author of the app added a "execute before" and "execute after" the backup task. I'd then add a few registry keys and after upload it to ftp or send via email...
So any way of auto sending a file via email via a scheduled task / morstscript and maybe also via ftp mirroring as a choice?
Last thing would be to batch encrypt the file as it would travel via email or simple ftp.
Thanks!
in astro and when choosing a file and 'send', all i have are mail options.
You have to install the astro bluetooth module from the market
ach, thank you
and if you want to send ANY file via bluetooth try "Explorer" from the market
ta mate
I wanted to send an .apk today to my m8 via BT. Same problem as you: Astro and ES File explorer only gave me option Gmail and Email.
And what did i do ?
I renamed .apk to .jpg, then i got the full options Context menu (also with BT). ;]

just find astro bluetooth module in the android market, install it, and in astro will appear the bluetooth option
is there a text editor built into the phone somewhere? It would be real nice to be able to read files while in the phone itself , or do you have to be tied to the pc?
You have word in the office hub. You may create new files but syncing with pc is not supported as far as I know. You have to send files from your pc to your phone via email.
Advanced Explorer and TouchXplorer both offer full filesystem access and the ability to open any file for reading/editing in Word (although some files will be write-protected). This generally works fine for plain-text files.
Hello, i was wondering how to transfer files on Two android devices, via WIFI tether example two devices have Wi-Fi On and how they can transfer files between send/receive?
Is there any application like this or something..?
thanks in advance
Try Bump or Hoccer, they both send the files via internet. If you want a local solution, set up ftp on one and access it from the other with any capable file manger (i.e. ES File Explorer).
