FWIW, I am a KDE Desktop user. I have "kde connect" installed on my Samsung phones. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kde.kdeconnect_tp <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kde.kdeconnect_tp> This doesn't use bluetooth, but does add extra features/abilities. And it transfers files without problem. For me, I find this a better solution since not all my desktop systems have bluetooth. Yes but that does not solve the problem. All it does is work around it.
Which is why I said "FWIW".
I mean if I need to transfer files from a another device which does not have or supports KDE Connect, I am back in the same bind.
I suppose I could test it for you. But have you tried installing an app such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bluetoothx.filetransfer.become ? -- --- The key to getting good answers is to ask good questions. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
