[Q] Problem transferring files via bluetooth - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi,
I have this problem when trying to send files to my friend's phone via bluetooth. Everytime I select a file and send it it says 'unable to send' or 'sending failed' or something like that but my friend can send files to me and I can recieve them no problem.
To try to send files I go into settings, turn on bluetooth, make my device visible, and pair it to my friend's phone. I can pair the phones but when I try to share a file I keep gettin that error. Am I doing something wrong? Is there another step involved in the process?
Thanks!

What ROM's are the phones running?
AOSP cannot NFC share/transfer files with ICS. One uses bluetooth to transfer and the other WiFi direct, from what I've heard/read.

I have the exact same problems. I suspect the BTTrayCE error is from installing a version of tomtom that doesnt work on this phone (which i did do).
Any help regarding the bluetooth would be appreciated as mine behaves the same as described above (it basically only gives the option of connecting to bluetooth headphones...)
You will have to do a hard reset. You'll lose all your installed programs and settings.
If you remove the bluetooth drivers from the TomTom CAB you'll be able to install it without messing up the bluetooth (google to find a program to do this).

I got it sorted, did as was said on page 7. You must use total commander.
solution to tt7 bluetooth mess up
no need to hard reset. just rename and delete the following files and soft reset your device. woked for me.
\Windows\BtSdkCE30.dll
\Windows\BtCoreIf.dll
ive got the same problem, but i cant find the files. its in device\windows right?? where else might the files be?
Rename the files and replace them with the ones mentioned above. It fixed my problem.

I'm using Total Commander. When I try to rename the file, the file name remains as the original. When I try to delete the file, the screen tells me that it cannot delete the file. I have not installed Tom Tom or anything else. Help?

Samsung Epic cannot transfer files FROM Epic to PC

Ok, so I have my PC and Phone paired, but each time I try to send a file from my Android to my PC the transfer fails. I have my PC setup to automatically accept files from connected devices, but it instantly fails every time.
Has anyone succeeded in doing this, and any idea what I am missing...
EDIT - sorry I posted in wrong forum. Can a mod please move this to Android General

When you say "paired" are you talking about a Bluetooth file transfer? If so try a program from the market called Bluetooth File transfer. That works between my 2 Epics.
Do you BONSAI?
So does this mean that the built in BT program won't work either??? I tried BT file transfer, but didn't have luck with that the first time.
More information.
I can send files from my PC to my Android all day long, but cannot receive files.

Did you try to disconnect and repair letting the Epic scan for the computer? How about an Antivirus program or firewall? Disable all of those and try it.

[Q] Couldn't transfer file using bluetooth

I tried to send a file (apk, doc) to another device but it always said "not authorized". I could just send a picture to another device only. I could receive file from another device but I can't send it out.
Besides, when I tried to connect to another device, it error "paired but not connect" although I make it discoverable
Please help me! Thanks!
Please try to delete paired connection with the device and re-pair again.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
@jorjino2000: Thank for your help but it's not working.

I don't think u can bluetooth apk file, u need to ZIP them first and bluetooth them. all the other files should be ok.
What is the other device? I can send any file I want back and fourth between my computer and my DHD. Doesn't matter the extension. Just not a folder. When sending to my computer I have to tell the computer first to get ready to receive a file.

Bluetooth issues with CyanogenMod ROMS

I tried using CM7.1, CM7.2, CM9 and CMX which is the latest but all of them has issues with bluetooth. I can't send any files from a different device to my HTC Desire. I always have the error message saying " Sending Failed" although the device was already paired. Help please!
how many different device did you try? mine is working just fine.

I tried 4 different devices and also I tried using different device with other operating system like Symbian and BB but still not accepting any file transfer.
That's odd. What kind of file are you trying to transfer? Sometimes I notice it's picky on the type of file it accepts but not all files
I'm trying to transfer an apk file because I'm not connected to wifi at the moment. Trying to get a file manager to install apps. After I encountered problem with the apk file, I tried sending mp3 and videos but no luck. is there anything that I need to do? I tried reflashing the Rom but still have the same issue.
