This is probably a dumb question, but since I don't know for sure, I'm going to ask. Is it possible to connect two phones directly to each other via bluetooth to transfer ringtones, photos, etc?
Yes. I have transferred a ringtone I composed using MPT from my V505 to a friend's V600 via Bluetooth.
Thanks for the reply. I was able to figure it out and got all my ringtones/photos transfered. I just got the RAZR and don't have the data cable for it. Thank God for Bluetooth.
I tried doing this from my 710 to a v551 and it would not work. When I tried to go the other direction the v551 seemed to want to do it but the 710 would not pick it up. I am thinking that this is something that the 710 does not do.
That's because VZW cripples their Bluetooth including that in the 710. VZW wants you to use their GIN services for all the pics and ringtones. Lots of people have complained, but I think it obviously all fell on deaf ears at VZW.
That's how i transfered all my downloaded ringtones, wallpapers, and pictures from my silver Razr to my black one.
I would suggest you not buy any branded cable. Since the RAZR is a USB connection, any computer cable that you use to connect a digital camera will work fine - that's what I do (when I'm not using the Bluetooth ). Nothing beats free. -CLG
the only problem sometimes with using bluetooth phones from non gsm carriers is that they have a tendency to only work with other bluetooth devices that the carrier offers. Most Sprint bluetooth devices only work with other Sprint bluetooth. I never tried a Verizon cdma to a gsm though.
Since I just got my new V3 I am going to be losing alot of information from my old phone if I can't transfer all my files. The replies said that you could transfer the data. I am needing help in actually doing so. If you would send me the information on how you did the transfer I would appreciate it.
You will need Mobile Phone Tools and a usb cable. Here's a guide you can read through....welcome to WA
