Hi,

I'm using SE W800i. Recently i bought a Microsoft bluetooth keyboard (http://www.microsoft.com/products/info/product.aspx?view=22&type=ovr&pcid=76e91501-ff1c-44cf-947f-003f3fe25a8c) but have no idea how to set it up to work with my phone, so that i can transfer files to pc.

anyone using the same bluetooth keyboard like me? can you guys advise me how to set it up please? thanks!

You pair your phone to the computer and send files using bluetooth.

You can also use programs like myphoneexplorer (by using the bluetooth com port), which allows you to browse folders on the phone and upload or download files to and from the computer.

If you use the bluetooth software that came with the keyboard, there should be a "browse bluetooth neighbourhood". Here you can use obex file transfer to browse the phones contents.

Do you use Windows XP service pack 2? If so you should have a bluetooth applet in control panel. In there you can check your phone's com port. That is the port you use in my phone explorer.

Also, if you right click on a file (say an image or ringtone) then you should have the option "copy to bluetooth" OR in the 'send to' menu there should be an option "bluetooth device".

if you want to browse the phone then yes. The xp sp2 native bluetooth support doesn't provide the means to browse the files on connected bt devices. Using thirdparty software is the only way. Some adapters come with widcomm, a package that has "bluetooth neighbourhood" and uses obex file transfer to browse the phone. If microsoft haven't provided similar software to widcomm for their adapter, then you need to look at a third party option.

MyPhoneExplorer is the best option in that category. It is fast, has contacts and calander sync, you can browse both memory stick and phone contents, change profiles, save call lists and sms messages on the computer etc etc. It's agreat package, takes up stuff all space and you won't regret installing it
