Edgy can't send/receive files to/from my Nokia via Bluetooth any more

I am facing many bluetooth problems for last 1 day. This is one of them. In my opinion this might be related to kernel upgrade.

I have same bug too please you can merge my report with this: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/62594

I installed Kubuntu Edgy a few days ago and Bluetooth seems to work just fine. I haven't tried GNOME again though.

Please let me know if command 'gnome-obex-send -d <btaddr> <filename>' (without quotes, replace <btaddr> with bluetooth address of your device).

I suspect that this is nautilus-sendto issue.

Yes Onkar with that command it works

Marking it as 'nautilus-sendto' issue because,
'gnome-obex-send -d <btaddr> <filename>' works but,
sending file from context menu of file -> Send to... ->Bluetooth (OBEX) doesn't work.

Make attention that If I try to send a file from my Nokia cell to PC it says that it cannot find any bluetooth device.
Before Edgy upgrade I was able to send file to my pc via BT. That is an issue I think isnt related to nautilus-sendto.
Thank you

@michelem,

The issue you mentioned is separate and there is bug for it. See bug 59222

I will update the description of this bug accordingly.

Hi

I cannot send files using nautilus-send-to or gnome-obex-send; the bluetooth device(Nokia phone) doesnt show up in the window.

But using the command line options i can send files to my Nokia phone.

Receiving of files works fine.

I am running:

1. gnome-bluetooth (0.8.0-0ubuntu1) edgy
2. nautilus-sendto (0.7.2ubuntu6)

Hi Mandar,

This bug is marked as 'Fix Released'. Please open a new bug for your problems.

Also if possible go through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth/TestPlan before filing a bug.

i know this bug is marked as fixed but i think the bug-report should be reopened because the fix don't work.

i have edgy eft, the necessary bluetooth-stuff installed.

if i run gnome-obex-send, the gui pop up, but i cannot see my telephone.

as mentioned above,
'gnome-obex-send -d <btaddr> <filename>' works and the file is sent then.

a little more info:

'hcitool scan' shows: user@user-laptop:~$ hcitool scan
Scanning ...
        00:11:9x:xx:xx:xx Nokia 6230

'gnome-obex-send' shows nothing, you can take a look here (or see attachment):

sometimes gnome-obex-send seems to find the telephone, and sometimes not, but it never shows up in the gui.

in dapper it did, also it works under windows, so the phone is def. not defect
