Bluetooth Issue? Or I'm likely just a 'tard...

[wolf howl]

So I've literally never used my bluetooth feature on my phone for anything. However, I'm going on a business trip and would like to get a few of my movies over to my HTC Flyer tablet. Now, the easy thing would have been to transfer them direct from my computer to the tablet but naturally I've lost that cord. Sigh.

So, my next thought was to get them to my phone and then transfer them to my tablet via Bluetooth. I'm able to discover the tablet/phone and get them paired. I go find the file on the phone, long press, find the share menu and then select bluetooth. It sends the Acceptance request to my tablet and then pops up a screen on my phone that says, "File does not exist" and just gives me an OK button to press.

Also, when I'm looking at the Bluetooth settings they both say "Paired but not connected". I've toggled it to be in FTP mode and get the same results.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this or ideas on how to get the movie over to the tablet otherwise? haha

Won't the tbolt cord work with the flyer or is HTC using some weird port of the tablet

Cord won't work, I tried and cussed.

Try the app called bump. I don't even think you have to pair them.

Bump is working! Thanks for that suggestion!

Just glad I could contribute instead of asking for once. Glad it works!

LOL - sorry, it wasn't actually Bump that worked, BUT the comments in the review section led me to a app called Bluetooth File Transfer that did the trick! You still get the assist dms! haha

For a more direct route you may want to try this app - I use it all the time. WiFi File Explorer PRO: http://market.android.com/details?id=com.dooblou.WiFiFileExplorerPRO
