Re: bluetooth

 

Hello!

 

See this KB:

  • KB05409 Transfer a file using Bluetooth technology between two BlackBerry smartphones

 

Substitute, in the KB, the appropriate instructions for your other device in place of the KB section for the sending (or receiving) device. Do not skip the "Receive Using BT" step on the receiving BB...nothing will transfer if you do.

 

Good luck and let us know!

Re: bluetooth

Tried and failed.

It is just not connecting to another phone. If someone tries to send me anything it says connection failed.

I'm at a bit of a loss.
