In that case you probably want: bt-obex -s -y But still it's just a workaround for the original problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1911456 Title: Can't receive files over bluetooth unless settings dialog is open Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-user-share package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On 18.04 I could send files from my phone to my laptop at any time.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1911456] Re: Can't receive files over bluetooth unless settings dialog is open
I tried "bluetoothctl". That's a neat tool that I didn't know about, but I couldn't find a command that would let me send stuff from my phone without interaction. I installed bt-obex and tried "bt-obex -s", which allowed file transfer but I still had to acknowledge each one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1911456 Title: Can't receive files over bluetooth unless settings dialog is open Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-user-share package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On 18.04 I could send files from my phone to my laptop at any time.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a security feature. You might be able to keep it enabled in the 'bluetoothctl' tool. Or try something like 'bt-obex -s'. ** Also affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1911456 Title: Can't receive files over bluetooth unless settings dialog is open Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On 18.04 I could send files from my phone to my laptop at any time.
