Bluetooth connection can be used to send images, videos,
text, business cards, calendar notes, or to connect wirelessly
to devices that use Bluetooth technology.
Since devices using Bluetooth technology communicate
using radio waves, your device and the other devices do not
need to be in direct line-of-sight. The two devices only need
to be within a maximum of 10 metres of each other, although
the connection can be subject to interference from
obstructions such as walls or other electronic devices.
Several Bluetooth connections can be active at a time. For
example, if your device is connected to a headset, you can
also transfer files to another compatible device at the same
time.
Features using Bluetooth technology increase the demand on
battery power and reduce the battery life.
Send and receive data with
Bluetooth
1. When you activate Bluetooth for the first time, you are
asked to give a name to your device. Give your device a
unique name to make it easy to recognise if there are
several Bluetooth devices in the vicinity.
2. Select Bluetooth > On.
3. Select My phone's visibility > Shown to all or Define
period. If you select Define period, you need to define
the time during which your device is visible to others. Your
device and the name you entered can now be seen by
other users with devices using Bluetooth technology.
4. Open the application where the item you want to send is
stored.
5. Select the item, and select Options > Send > Via
Bluetooth. The device searches for other devices using
Bluetooth technology within range and lists them.
Tip: If you have sent data using Bluetooth before,
a list of the previous search results is displayed. To
search for more Bluetooth devices, select More
devices.
6. Select the device with which you want to connect. If the
other device requires pairing before data can be
transmitted, you are asked to enter a passcode.
When the connection has been established, Sending data is
shown.
The Sent folder in the Messaging application does not store
messages sent using Bluetooth connectivity.
To receive data using Bluetooth, select Bluetooth > On and
My phone's visibility > Shown to all to receive data from
a non-paired device or Hidden to receive data from a paired
device only. When you receive data through Bluetooth, a tone
sounds, and you are asked if you want to accept the message
in which the data is included. If you accept, the message is
placed in the Inbox folder in the Messaging application.
Tip: You can access the files in the device or on the
memory card using a compatible accessory that
supports the File Transfer Profile Client service (for
example, a laptop computer).
A Bluetooth connection is disconnected automatically after
sending or receiving data. Only Nokia PC Suite and some
