10.2 Bluetooth Partnerships
A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your
phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to exchange
information in a secure manner.
Creating a Bluetooth partnership
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab, and then tap
Wireless controls > Bluetooth. Your phone then starts searching
for other Bluetooth devices.
2. Tap a Bluetooth device to connect with.
3. Specify a passcode, which can be 1 up to 16 characters, to
establish a secure connection, and then tap OK.
Note Your phone uses Bluetooth 2.1 with Secure Simple Pairing feature. If the
other Bluetooth device you are pairing with also supports the same
feature, the passcode will be automatically created and displayed on
both your phone and the other Bluetooth device. Both you and other
party simply need to verify that the passcode is the same and tap Yes
to establish the partnership.
4. After the receiving party accepts the partnership, the Bluetooth
device name is shown on your screen, including all Bluetooth
services that you can use with it. Select the check boxes of the
Bluetooth services you want to use, and then tap Done.
5. If you selected to use the Bluetooth Serial Port service of the
paired device, select a local serial port to assign for the paired
device, and then tap Continue.
When you tap Menu > All Settings > Bluetooth on the Home screen’s
Settings tab, you will see the connected Bluetooth device listed in the
Devices tab ( ).
Tip Tap Properties to change the paired device name. Tap Menu > Update
to update the list of services that you can use with the paired device.
