iPhone have bluetooth, but the feature is very limited. It can only be used with bluetooth headsets. I talked about the iBluetooth project long time ago, and the video shows the iPhone bluetooth can do something more. It can be used to send and receive files. The project team makes the bluetooth becomes the real bluetooth.

Finally, it’s here. The team has now released the iBluetooth software in Cydia. You can now install it with 7 days trial. I am unable to test it. It does not work on my iPhone. iBluetooth quits when I try to send or receive files. Not sure what is the main problem. Hope it will work later. Okay. It works now. A new capture is uploaded. I have tested to send and receive files with other bluetooth enabled mobile phones, it works perfectly.

    amazing. have been waiting, good post, though I tried many times it would only give me ‘Unable to start the stack, please try restarting the application. if the problem persist, try rebooting the device.’ error but they’ve had 10,000 downloads of this already!! so server busy but also you must turn on system bluetooth and a good instructions would help, – how did you do it?

    I knew this was too good to be a free app.

    odds,

    I guess the server is too busy to handle so much requests. Not sure whether trying later will fix the problem. I have friends that tried the apps today. It works.

    I just installed on my iphone 3g from cydia, opened fine with 6 days trial period then try with my laptop to send a pict but after trying to send it, it just crash (app close itself) haven’t tried yet using a cellphone i would tried later and post it later!!

    andreschido,

    It happens to me on the MacBook, too. I think iBluetooth may not compatible with all laptop bluetooth. It’s a good program, though

    menhir,

    I have tried with different device. It works perfectly. Some device may not work, but most of them works.

    I’ve tried file transfers from iPhone to other devices and other devices to iPhone. It works when the file is transfered to other devices from iPhone BUT cant make it work other way round?? any help

    I tried different scenarios … turned on the PIN authentication. YES, i would say when file is sent to iPhone from other devices, it does ask for PIN and all sequence of process is done BUT it never sends that file ??

    help required …

    And also where should the files be saved as there is an option to enter the path where user wants to save them … wat is the default one ?
