I am using Ubuntu Natty. I want to transfer files to and from my samsung galaxy which is running froyo. But every time I try to transfer a file from my Samsung Galaxy phone to Ubuntu natty I get the message
Remote device rejected your request
on my phone. I don't know what to do about it. Can someone please help me or point me in the right direction?
Had the same problem with SGS2, solved by going (on pc) into Bluetooth Preferences -> Receive Files and switching "Receive files into Download folder over bluetooth" back and forth
Well I did have this problem and I just figured this out. Make sure your computer has "Allow Bluetooth Devices To Find This Computer" selected. Then follow this:
Start -> search -> Bluetooth File Transfer
Click this then click "Receive Files". Now you are ready to receive files from any other devices!
I think it works brilliantly but I am using Windows 7. It might be different for Windows XP. But I am sorry, I don't know. Hope this helped!
Based on the error you have received, I would suggest you to install something like "blueman" since it have better options and I bet this will solve your issue because I too have the same issue with my sony ericsson.
Installation is pretty simple, just search blueman in synaptic/software center.
Click on the Bluetooth applet > Properties > Enable receive files, then try it again.
s6102 setting > Application > Running Services > Bluetooth share > Stop
Finish, then go for new transfer.
Click on the Bluetooth applet > Properties > join a personal area network
