hey guys it's Brandon minimun from pocketnow.com and in this video I'm going to show you how to beam files with over Bluetooth so you can send pictures and contacts and ringtones and that sort of thing from one device to the next and I'm using an Xperia x10 and a touch pro on the left but you can also do this from a windows mobile device to a standard dumb phone as long as it has the obex standard built in alright so let's take a look I want to turn on bluetooth first on both devices and turn it on there and turn it on there okay so now I'm going to go into the settings for Bluetooth on the device that I'm sending to and I want to make sure if I go into mode that make this device visible to other devices is checked so that I can get them connected to each other so I'm going to go over to the Xperia this is the device that I will be sending from and I'm gonna click add new device cool so touch pro comes up and I tap on that click Next it asks for the passcode which was just usually defaulted to 1 2 3 4 and then on the touch pro it says or you want to connect to the x1 I and I'm gonna say yes and it will also put in the passcode on the touch Pro and click Next and there we're connected it says your Pocket PC has connected with the touch pro and this is connected with the x1 it's funny they still call it Pocket PC Microsoft stop calling it that a long time ago anyhow so I'm gonna go into file explorer and go into my storage card and well here I am already and I'm going to so I'm in my storage card and I'm gonna select one of these pictures they're all about 1 megabyte so I'm gonna see how long it takes to transfer so I tap and hold on any picture here or file and I do beam file and then it's going to search for devices that I can beam to and touch pros gonna come up in a second and it says unknown device but we know that that's the touch pro so I clack click on that to send and I'm going to get something on the touch pro screen you are receiving data to stop receiving press cancel so right now it's sending one megabyte and let's time this and after it's done transferring that was about 23 seconds for 1 megabyte it says you want to save the picture to your device and I'm gonna click and by default it goes to my document so if I go up to file explorer and here we are in my documents and look on the bottom here is the file which is actually like I said a picture so about 23 seconds for 1 megabyte which is pretty fast again sending over Bluetooth is a really quick and easy way to send pictures and contacts and ringtones and other files while you're out and about and you don't have syncing cables and that sort of thing so that's it for now
