Description Radu Capitanu (reporter) 2010-01-13 14:45:06 UTC

SOFTWARE VERSION:
1.2009.44-1

EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM: 
1.Now (I Hope :))the basic firmware don't let me send via bluetooth other files
than Pictures (and those only trough Photos Viewer)
2.It will be more than grate if you implement this function in File Manager! 
3.I paid for my phone over 500 euro but I can send an mp3 file via bluetooth!
Come On!!!
4.It's not normal to install a third part application to do this (Petrovich).
Maybe you contact him to tell you the secret! I was mean! Sorry!

EXPECTED OUTCOME:

To be functional!

ACTUAL OUTCOME:

Sadly it isn't!

REPRODUCIBILITY:
(always)

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:
Petrovich

OTHER COMMENTS:

I know you can do it! It's basic in every decent phone! But N900 it more than
one! So...

We know we can do it too. In fact, this feature was already present in file
manager before the sales release but for various reasons it got removed at one
point. We're looking into the possibility of reintroducing it but it's not just
a technical issue since it constitutes (strictly speaking, following the
Bluetooth SIG rules) adding a new feature to the Object Push profile which in
turn causes a whole lot of paperwork and the potential need for a new listing
at bluetooth.org.

Please don't touch the severity and priority fields. enhancement severity is
correct since this is essentially a feature request. The priority field is
something used internally by the project and developers to prioritize the
processing of bugs. Also, the Hardware field of the bug report already says
"N900" so it is redundant to have that in the summary.

Sorry! I'm new around here! I putted N900 on the tittle to be easily found for
all the N900 users!

Just noticed that there's already another much older bug report for this.
