Turning Bluetooth on and making your phone visible
Turn Bluetooth on and make your phone visible (discoverable) when
you want other Bluetooth-enabled devices to detect and connect with
your phone.
On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab, and then tap Menu
> Wireless controls > Bluetooth.
When prompted to turn on Bluetooth, tap Yes.
Tap the Settings tab ( ), and then tap Not Discoverable.
Tap the drop-down menu and then select Always Visible.
Note If you select Visible for 60 seconds, Bluetooth visibility will turn off
automatically when the time elapses and your phone has not yet
connected to another Bluetooth device.
Tap Done. The icon then appears in the title bar to indicate
that your phone is in visible mode.
Tip To easily switch Bluetooth off or back on, tap Wireless controls on the
Home Screen’s Settings tab to open the Comm Manager and then tap
Bluetooth’s Off/On switch.
Your phone remembers whether visible mode was previously enabled or
disabled. If you did not disable visible mode, switching Bluetooth on in
the Comm Manager also puts your phone in visible mode automatically.
For more information about using the Comm Manager, see Chapter 14.
