Just bought a bluetooth device (billionton) and it works great... I can transfer themes, pictures and so on. But how do i get my applications or games to work? All I can do is to transfer them to phone, but i can't move them to the games folder or program folder in the phone...
i can't even execute them on the phone...just view info or move them....

thanx for the help!

As I recall, you need to use 'Obex Object Push' or something like that. I think you just drag and drop the .jar file onto the object push folder and that's it.

Thanx for the tips!
The files are all in *.jar..... =)
But the OBX Object Push won't work.
It says it couldn't recieve the businesscard. File not found.
That's what happens when i double click the OBX icon.
Maybe some kind of setting??
I've tried everything...

I believe i somehow have to get the apps into the program/game folder to get them to work at all.....
anyone else got any suggestions on how to get the files in thos folders?

Anyone know if FMA can be used over bluetooth? Might be worth a go if you can't get Obex transfer to work.

It can be used with bluetooth although I'm not sure if you can upload games using fma.

don't have sp2, but i don't think that's the problem. Where do u guys put your games? Can you guys put the games directly into the games folder? maybe there is a setting i've missed... making the games/program folder show up in my explorer??

You can certainly upload games using FMA, you just connect the phone, select Action>File>Upload, choose the file, and the phone will give you the choice of storing it it Games or Applications folder.

Suggest you try FMA - free software, very good for synchronisation, ringtones, pictures, etc. Do a search for the download link.

Thank u all for you answers!
FMA really seems like a nice program!
Downloaded it, but i never got it to work. It just kept freezing all the time, seems to be alot of bugs in that program??? I'll download it as soon as they released a new version though..gotta try it again!

I did however solve the problem of not being able to put files in the program o games folder. I just rightclicked the file i wanted to send (send to bluetooth unit). By doing this the phone asked me if i wanted to put it in the program or games folder! yeay!

thanx again!
