Here i am determining few free command line tools that you can use for nokia and various other phones (technically phones supporting object push). And all this can be done on any system.. (without requiring such live CD). I own a nokia 3230, all of this work on my Debian etch.. but i hope this will work on any phone and any distribution, provided the phone is connected in PC-Suit mode. You need... bluez packages hcitool, sdptool etc // almost there in all the distros obexftp obexfs etc// needs to be installed, depends on openobex gnome-bluetooth etc // this is also usually present /* All commands at # prompt */ $hcitool dev # shows the MAC address of the device attached with the system $hcitool scan # discovers the devices in range.

Re: [ilugd] ubuntu feisty linux to nokia E61i bluetooth
dear shamail, thanks for such a comprehensive and fantastic response. read through your blog as well. $sdptool browse my_ph # shows the list of services available on the remote device. Here note down the channel number of the services you want to use. On my phone 2 is for Dial up networking and 12 is for obex object exchange. i don't have anything specifically called 'obex object exchange' but i do have obex file transfer, which is what i assume you mean. this is at channel 11. pair the device.. the easiest way is to start # bluetooth-applet and initiate pairing from the phone. Set the PC as authorized(just a personal opinion) in the phone. This way you dont need to use bluez-pin for pairing, neither you need to edit /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf damn! this is the part that just does not work. same problem. i start the pairing from the phone, type in the PIN, and the pc rejects it. :-( /* The reason of the halting of transfer with kbluetooth may be that it is trying to send the file using object push, and not object exchange (rem they are both available at different channels, so use it correctly, object push doesn't support transfer directly in memory card, file will go to the phones inbox. However no harm to phone will get caused if you will use the wrong channel. This is the reason of most of your problems. well am using object push rather than object exchange, as the latter demands i have a paired device. you are right, with object push i get the files in my inbox, which i have managed to install without errors. i still don't understand why it halts at a random point with object push. it had worked earlier. anyways, i did find a quick-fix solution for the moment, but i still want the proper bluetooth-enabled full pcmobile experience. my quick-fix solution: the Nokia E61i ships with a usb cable. i connect using the data-transfer mode, so on my ubuntu desktop the phone appears as a hard-disk for the microSD card. a) transferred all *.jar, *.sis, and other apps and data files to personal folders on the card. b) unmount from the pc, and the phone goes back online. c) using the standard 'File Manager' program under Nokia's symbian S60, just browse to the folder in the microSD, and installed the apps and stored the data files in the relevant places. how do i backup my contacts, sync with the pc, send and receive sms etc., is still eluding me on my desktop gnulinux. by the way, found a few interesting GPL and LGPL apps, ironically written in FlashLite, for the mobile platform. those interested may hunt for them at flash-mini.com :-) niyam bhushan ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22/23, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
