Epic 4g, Bluetooth, and Win7 x64

dja2k · #1 (**permalink**) 03-08-2011, 09:59 PM

I can't seem to send files from my Epic 4g to Win7 x64 PC. It doesn't complete the transfer and says that the operation can not be honored. I've had a BT 2.1 dongle and now a BT 3.0 and the same thing. Both are paired and connected to each other but just can't get the file transfer to work. Any ideas?

I have wp7 x64 and bt works fine as well..did you configure permissions for file transfer? I think obex is its name...if you did and still dont work try deleting the device and repairing them.

Also what rom are you on?

Thanks for the replies. I am running midNIGHT ROM v4.1 just like my sig states. I am able to transfer normally on my other Win7 computer, but can't seem to get it working on my Win7 x64. Haven't heard of obex, but I didn't configure anything on my other computer and it worked fine.

Try deleting the device and re-pairing them..also can you go the other way around and pc->epic rather then epic->pc?

I've unpaired them several times and can't transfer any files either way, epic=>pc nor pc=>epic. They do connect normally though.

I mean delete the device completely...not just unpair..

Also take a screenshot of the Services tab in win7, when device is connected.

I've already tried all that and have also went investigating my services. I am not a newbie at this stuff; it's just one of those odd problems I can't figure out.

I did have an issue similar at one point when transfering from my device to my pc..I downloaded Astro file manager plus the bluetooth plugin and that worked for me..try that.

Hmmm I have those installed already, let me try that. Still think the problem is not my phone, its my x64 PC.
