Send data using a Bluetooth connection

There can be only one active Bluetooth connection at a time.

1Open an application where the item you wish to send is stored. For example, to send an image to another compatible device, open Gallery.

2Select the item, for example, an image, and select Options > Send > Via Bluetooth.

Tip! When searching for devices, some devices may show only the unique addresses (device addresses). To find the unique address of your phone, enter the code *#2820# in the standby mode.

The phone starts to search for devices within range. Devices with Bluetooth technology that are within range start to appear on the display one by one. You can see a device icon, the name of the device, the device type, or a short name.

Tip! If you have searched for devices earlier, a list of the devices that were found previously is shown first. To start a new search, select More devices. If you switch off the phone, the list is cleared.

To interrupt the search, press Stop. The device list freezes, and you can start to form a connection to one of the devices already found.

3Select the device with which you want to connect.

4If the other device requires pairing before data can be transmitted, a tone sounds and you are asked to enter a passcode.

Create your own passcode (1—16 digits), and agree with the owner of the other device to use the same code. The passcode is used only once.

Tip! To send text using a Bluetooth connection (instead of text messages), go to Notes, write the text, and select Options > Send > Via Bluetooth.

After pairing, the device is saved to the paired devices view.

Glossary: Pairing means authentication. The users of the devices with Bluetooth technology should agree what the passcode is and use the same passcode for both devices in order to pair them. Devices that do not have a user interface have a factory-set passcode.

When the connection has been established, the note Sending data is shown.

The Drafts folder in Messaging does not store messages sent using a Bluetooth connection.

Icons for different devices:
