Hi Richard,

On the basis that you're using KDE (??) this was my solution:

Take the following information:

00:1D:28:CE:6E::02

Open Konqueror and enter the following information in the URL window like so:

obex://[00:1D:28:CE:6E::02]:8/

this part:

:8/

represents the channel for your mobile.

Now, in a terminal, if you run:

sdptool browse 00:1D:28:CE:6E::02

and scan down, you'll find something like:

Service Name: OBEX Object Push
Service Description: OBEX Object Push
Service Provider: <name of your device>
Service RecHandle: some numbers
Service Class ID List:
  "OBEX Object Push" other numbers and things
Protocol Descriptor List:
  "L2CAP" (<other numbers and things>)
  "RFCOMM" (<other numbers and things>)

THIS is what you're looking for:

Channel: 8
  "OBEX" (0x0008)

The number here is what you want to add for the channel number.



Once you've entered that bit in Konqueror, treat it like a URL and hit 'GO' :)

This should connect you to your mobile.

If it does anything like mine, I get three icons (depending on the view you're using):

Audio
Picture
Video.

Then select 'tree' view for this window and click on the icons. It should show you the relevant bits on your phone and if you open up another window, you should be able to copy too and from the phone.

Additionally I use KmobileTools to synch addresses etc. I'm using Dapper and the newer version of KmobileTools looks like it works much better.

All of the above is based on you having the following installed and using KDE:

libobexftp1 <none> (no description available) ii libopenobex-1.0-0 1.0.0-rel-3 OBEX protocol library un libopenobex1 <none> (no description available) ii obexftp 0.10.7+0.10.8pre9-3 file transfer utility for devices that use the OBEX pr ii obexserver 1.0-3ubuntu1 Receive files with OBEX protocol ii openobex-apps 1.0.0-rel-6 Applications for OpenOBEX ii qobex 0.99+1.0beta1-6ubun Swiss army knife for the OBject EXchange (obex) protoc

I *think* this is all installed using:

sudo apt-get install bluez-utils

I *hope* this is of some help.

Get back to me if you need more help...or if this doesn't work at all :))

Regards,

Patrick


[SLUG] Connecting bluetooth under Ubuntu

Dear list,

I am trying to connect a phone to my box. I can scan and identify both the phone and computer but it looks like I need to create a 'shared secret' for the wireless connection similar to a wifi link.


sudo hciconfig hci0
Type: USB
BD Address 11:11:11:11:11 ACL MTU 678:8 SCO MTU 48:10
UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN
RX bytes:3666 acl:30 sco:0 events:171 errors:0
TX bytes:1564 acl:30 sco:0 commands:80 errors:0

sudo hcitool scan
Scanning...
00:1D:28:CE:6E::02    KAWAI@
Searching ....


1. How do either enable 'promiscuous' mode so I do not have any passcodes?

2. How do I configure the passcode?

regards,
