sudo hciconfig hci0 sspmode 0 isn't solution for me as it's (the sspmode) not supported by my Bluetooth chip. I can pair the devices but all file transfers will fail regardless of direction. The connection will just timeout.
The Bluetooth HW is 0a5c:201e Broadcom Corp. IBM Integrated Bluetooth IV on a IBM Thinkpad X41. Tested with Samsung Galaxy S (Android 2.3.7), ZTE Blade (Android 2.2), Huawei Ideos X5 (Android 2.2) and Nokia N82 (S60) - similar results for all. I suspect this is HW specific as file transfer to / from desktop computer with external Bluetooth dongle (ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)) works ok with the same phones.

I can do further tests if instructed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879923 Title: No file transfers possible with cell phones, regression since oneiric alpha To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/879923/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
