 Hopefully this isn't too stupid a question! How do I send a file via BT?
Can't see any obvious facility to do this, in File Explorer the only option
is 'Beam' which is rather useless on my S620 which has no iR port!

 Hi Darren,

Beam is misleading - it includes IR and Bluetooth. I think my phone is
older than yours, but for me, the process is as follows:
1. Select file in explorer
2. Choose "Menu:Send:Beam" - a screen appears called "Send Data", and
after a short delay, a list of nearby Bluetooth devices. On my phone,
there is also an IR entry on the list.
3. Choose the device to send to, and off goes the file.

The list might only show paired devices.

Hope this helps.

-Simon

Thanks Simon, that's what I was looking for but didn't investigate 'Beam' as
I wrongly assumed it was an iR type beam!
