Bluetooth file transfer issues - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Hi! I'm running Valhala 1.1, so not sure if this is a problem with that, or with Windows 7, or what, but I paired my phone with my computer, but cannot seem to transfer files from my phone. When I try to send a picture through the gallery, for example, it fails and says "remote device rejected your request". Also, in Windows 7, when using the bluetooth device control thing, I can browse the phone, but only folders show up. NO files, just folders. Any ideas? I can stream music fine, just can't seem to do any file transfers.

I also had a problem like this when trying to send a song to my friend's Blackberry 8520. Im running Valhalla 1.3.2, any solution?

bluetooth incompatible with other devices?

whenever i try to send some file from my other bluetooth devices like nokia 8861, nokia 6630, my laptop etc it always fails....does someone know the reason why?
How are you trying to send a file? Bluetooth transfer works fine for me from my laptop. I connected via bluetooth, moved the file I wanted to transfer to my Bluetooth Exchange Folder on my laptop, and used the Bluetooth Explorer on the phone to see it. Then I just copied and pasted into a My Documents folder on the phone and it transferred fine. Laptop did ask me if I wanted to allow File Transfer Protocol to the phone. I suppose you could also ActiveSync with Bluetooth, click Explore Device and drag and drop files. Ill try to send a file with my dads 8525 and see what happens.
-edit- I was able to send files between the TyTn II and the 8525 no problem.

It is NOT a bug. Go to your bluetooth settings. Go to the FTP tab and make sure that Enable File Sharing is checked. Then you will be able to recieve files via bluetooth.
thanks a lot man....now its working....i thought that function is for sharing the files but not file transfer.
I have your problem too.

Bluetooth file sending w. laptop not working?

Hello,
i was trying to copy certain files from my laptop to phone via bluetooth but could just not get it all working. I have BT turned on (both devices), they manage to connect via rather cumbersome set of dialogues (on laptop) but then I can only explore "services" on the device, whatever that is....
How do I send a file from lets say laptop desktop to the phone? And where can I locate it on the phone?
Thank you !
If you can explore services try looking for Bluetooth file transer service. It should open up the bluetooth shared folder which is common to both your phone and the computer. Drag and drop items from your phone or computer onto this folder and you should see them on either device. Default location of the bluetooth shared folder on your phone should be under my documents.
Thank you, will try that tomorrow back at the office
If you are using Vista, turning user account control off might help.
Mine is working now.
I gave up trying, too. Never have had any success with HTC phones, but SE phones always worked. Go figure.
Instead, I have networked/mapped my desired drives (with Resco File Explorer) of my laptop and desktop systems with the Fuze and and transfer files via WiFi that way. Works great and is fast.
Have you tried checking the box "receive all incoming beams"? It is located under settings and then the connections tab. Once there click on the Beam icon and make sure that box is checked. I couldn't send any files form my laptop to my phone until that was checked off.

Any Ubuntu Users?

[Q] Weird file system problem when connecting to Windows

So I'm having a strange and annoying problem with my sgs3, I'm running windows xp, and when I connect my phone it shows up in 'my computer' as SCH-I535. The problem is, when I open that folder.. it is empty (shows no directories at all) when I'm connected as media device. However, if I switch from media device to camera and back to media device, I am then able to see the directories.. This is extremely annoying to have to do this every time I connect my phone in order to transfer files. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers twice, with reboots and all.. Still doing the same thing. If anyone could help me figure this out, It'd be MUCH appreciated.

[Q] Strange Drag and Drop Issue...I need help PLZ!

I loved my xoom running HC and now that I have JB, it's driving me nuts. First it was the loss of flash and therefor all TV sites like abc.com and more importantly Amazon Prime. I did the side load thing and flash si back, but my audio is out of synch with the video and video is often choppy and unwatchable. I can almost live with that except now I can can't even transfer movie files (AVIs and MP4s). I don't think it's a JB issue as this just happened and I've been on JB for a couple of weeks.
Here's what happens. Stock wifi Xoom. I plug in via usb. Computer running Win7 64 bit sees the xoom just fine. I can drag a file from either the internal storage, or the sd card onto my computer. But when I try to drag any file from the computer to the xoom, I get an error message saying "The device is either not connected or is not connected". I've looked everywhere and I haven't found anyone with this problem.
HELP! Any ideas?
EDIT to ADD: Weirder still, I tried a Windows system restore. Now I can drag a jpeg or .doc file, but no movie files, regardless of size or format. CRAZY!
