darksnowman Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Who knows Bluetooth? Eh? Well this is where I need your aid and expertise. In short, I have a Samsung mobile phone (not sure which model number) and my sister has a Samsung laptop. Right, on my USB data pen I have a ringtone saved. How to I send it to my mobile? Do I need a cable or anything? I would've thought that sending it wirelessly would have been pretty straight forward, but as usual, things dont seem as smooth as one might hope. Anyone got any solutions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 To state the obvious, are you sure both the laptop and phone have bluetooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I've found out that bluetooth is the only kind of wireless system where that works perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 Yeah they do. Ive tried searching for devices and they don't pick each other up. Bit of a weird one and theres nothing extensive in the instruction books. Any other ideas guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ten10 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 You need to use the samsung phone software, if there was one included. Under connect you have options for bluetooth usb and something else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePigMarcher Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Have you made sure that both the phone and laptop are set as discoverable. Some models of mobiles (not sure about Samsung) only stay discoverable for a limited time to avoid the chance of 'bluejacking'. May also be worth checking to see if the laptop is set to discoverable too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
