    Default Help with Bluetooth (receiving files)

    Hi all, just need some help with my bluetooth settings. I was trying to recieve an mp3 file from my friend the other day.
    We were transferring the file from her phone to mine via bluetooth but my phone kept on trying to save the file in the phones internal memory.
    I looked high and low in the phone's setup but can't seem to find anything that can change the settings to save files directly to my memory card.
    Is there any way to change this or is this another flaw in the Ming's software design?

    All help would be greatly appreciated!!

    Cheers

    It seems to be a flaw, anything sent over bluetooth is first stored on the phones memory, then you can choose to save it to the card. The problem is if the file your receiving is larger than your phones memory your SOL regardless of the free space on your card.

    Hopefully this will get fixed with a later version of firmware.

    Thanks Valkur... that was my problem, someone was trying to send me something but I had no room for it in my phone's internal memory.

    Does anyone know if 46p will correct this stupid flaw?

    It has about 11.5mb's but since the user database and system take about 4 your left with roughly 7-8mb's

    Now I got it, I always thought my A1200 only have 8M because 8M memory was what mentioned on the brochure, but when I check the phone it says 11.5M

    Regarding the file transfer problem, supposedly the CM 53P firmware resolve the problem allowing you to save direct to memory card.
