    I'm trying to transfer files from my old cell phone to my new BB and it won't detect my BB--neither do other devices--I have not tried a headset. I've set just about every setting that I believe is available on both devices and nothing.
    • They're both discoverable.
    • Both are trusted
    • Encryption is Disabled (not sure if this matters but I disabled it because I thought this might be a problem.
    • In "MANAGE CONNECTION ON THE BB, Bluetooth is checked, ON.
    • Everything is enabled on the other device as well
    • I paired one and then the other, vice versa.
    • No other devices (wife's cell phone, others...) will detect my BB--just returns with "connection failed" or "Device not available".


    The mystery is that both devices pair up and everything appears as though it's going to work--key codes are accepted by both! But they fail when you try to "use" the connection. Weird huh?


    Are there incompatiblae types of Bluetooth protocols? I'm thinking like USB and USB2? What gives? Thanks.
