Pairing Bluetooth Devices
The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish trusted
connections between your device and another Bluetooth device.
When you pair devices, they share a passkey, allowing for fast,
secure connections while bypassing the discovery and
authentication process.
To pair your device with another Bluetooth device:
1. From a Home screen, touch
Applications
➔
Settings
➔
Wireless and networks
➔
Bluetooth settings
.
2. Touch
Bluetooth
to turn on Bluetooth.
3. Enable the target device’s discoverable or visible mode.
4. Touch
Scan devices
.
5. From the list of scanned devices, touch the target device,
then follow the prompts to complete the pairing:
•
If the target device requires a PIN, enter a PIN for the target device
and touch
OK
. When prompted, enter the PIN on the target device.
•
If the device allows automatic or smart pairing, your device
attempts to pair with the device automatically. Follow the prompts
on your device and the target device to complete the pairing.
Note:
Due to different specifications and features of other Bluetooth-
compatible devices, display and operations may be different, and
functions such as transfer or exchange may not be possible with all
Bluetooth compatible devices.
Note:
Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time process. Once a
pairing has been created, the devices continue to recognize their
partnership and exchange information without having to re-enter a
passcode again.
To disconnect a paired device:
Disconnecting a paired device breaks the connection between
the device and your phone, but retains the knowledge of the
pairing. At a later point when you want to reconnect the device,
there is no need to setup the connection information again.
1. Verify your Bluetooth is active.
2. From the Bluetooth settings page, touch and hold the
previously paired device (from the bottom of the page).
3. Touch
Unpair
to confirm disconnection.
Note:
Disconnections are manually done but often occur automatically if the
paired device goes out of range of your phone or it is powered off.
