bluetooth file transfer stopped working

[#1]

i installed the bluetooth file transfer app from the market and it worked fine for a couple of goes, then my 6 yr old got hold of my phone and i am not sure if he altered some sort of setting and it is now not sending out files (it says on the recieving phone, - connection dropped- ) it is also now not connecting to other phones.  Is there anyway of finding out what had changed so i can fix it, would a reset work if so how to do it.  please help as it is now driving me crazy!

You could try deleting the app and reinstalling it. Might force it back in to behaving itself!

i tried that - still no good...  , when transfering it almost instantly says transfer completed but on the recieving phone it says connection dropped, i have tried it with two different phones..so frustrating!

Hmmm, curious.  So have you removed the phones from your paired list and tried re-pairing with them. You can do this in BTFT app and long press on the particular device and then select remove.  Then try and pair them again.

I don't know what else to suggest! As long as your bluetooth is switched on then the app should do all the work for you.

ok, that doesn't work either.. have just tried to connect the devices and the message i get is:

Load Error

Can't load file data of target device.

Reason: Can't get folder -listing of remote device.

Reason: Negative "response"code from Server : INTERNAL SERVER ERROR (0xD0)

i'm hoping that this might be a bit more helpful in getting to the root of the problem....?

Oooooh, that doesn't look good.  Not seen that before.  I wonder if you need to repair the phones software entirely... it will wipe your phone back to factory settings but could sort out the software and let you clean install everything again.  Make sure you save / sync your contacts somewhere first tho.

I truly don't know what else to suggest.

Once you get this message, try to connect again immediately. If you are using a PC then make sure that the bluetooth exchange folder on the PC is not a drive. Make it such that the exchange folder is a separate folder with in a drive.
