Transfer Files To Phones Using Bluetooth

Transfer Files to Phones Using Bluetooth


Many modern cellular phones come with a feature called Bluetooth which allows the wireless transfer of files to and from other phones or even a Bluetooth-enabled computer. With an active Bluetooth connection, you can share ring tones, music or photos with your friends' cell phones.


Instructions


Phone to Phone


1. Check the manual that came with your cellular phone and read the section on Bluetooth capabilities to see if your phone has a Bluetooth password. Note down the password.


2. Power on your cellular phone and access the "Settings" option in the main menu. Choose the "Bluetooth" option if it is immediately available, or choose "Connections" and then "Bluetooth."


3. Press the option for "Activate Bluetooth." Enter in the Bluetooth code that you noted down before if your phone prompts you for one, or instead enter the standard code of "1111" if you don't have your manual and aren't sure what the password is.


4. Repeat the process on the second phone. Navigate to the folder on your phone that holds the file you want to transfer. Choose the file and then choose the option to "Send." Press the option to "Send to Phone" and then press the button to send to a connected Bluetooth phone. Enter in the phone number of the other phone if your cell does not prompt you to send to an activated Bluetooth phone in range.
