To send file from 770 2 PC:
Turn on PC, BT ready, right click BT, tap receive a File (waiting...)
Turn on 770, Tap and hold on to the file, send>Via BT (searching....), highlight the receiving PC..........transfer done.

To receive file, similar steps. Post if questions.

I tap on a file and I only see a send via email. not a BT. Do I need anything here? anything to install maybe?

If I want to send a file from pc to 770 how can I make the 770 receive the file? my pc says that the receiving device did not respont (I didn't get any message on my 770 to accept it)

The above works for 2007HE. For 2006 OS (standard) use these steps:
1. Connect to PC
1a. Ensure BT on PC is running properly and in discover mode.
1b. On 770, tap Tools->Control Panel->Phone and select your PC as the phone.
1c. Exit.

2. Transfer files (from 770 to PC).
2a. Start filemanager, scroll the directory list on left side of FM, select a 770 directory.
2b. Select a file on 770 on the right side of the FM.
2c. Select Edit->Copy.
2d. Scroll to bottom of directory list on left side of FM, select your BT device name (the PC).
2e. Select Edit->Paste.

2. Transfer files (from PC to 770).
2a. Start filemanager, scroll to bottom of directory list on left side of FM, select your BT device name (the PC).
2b. Select a file from the file list on the right side of the FM.
2c. Select Edit->Copy.
2d. Scroll the directory list on left side of FM, select a 770 directory.
2d. Select Edit->Paste.

770 BT will never be in discover mode using 2006 OS (are there scripts or hacks to change this? I'm not sure.) So you must initiate everything through the 770. See my other post about BT file transfers.

For the 2007HE OS, things are easier and the 770 bluetooth is discoverable.

BT is on and in discover mode on my pc. I am pairing from my 770 with PC and I enter the passcode. now the 770 says "Selected phone does not have services that can be used. Select another phone" :confused: :confused:

Re: send files with bluetooth
 

On your PC: What BT device are you using? And what BT device driver? Is there some software app with your BT that lets you select which services to provide?

And on the subsequent post, you mention that the 770 cannot be made discoverable. Well, it is different on a 2007He, mine is easily discovered by the PC, as a matter of fact, when tapping the BT icon on my 770 running 2007He, on the tool bar on top of the screen, it allows one to toggle discover on or off. this is when running 2007He. while on the 2006OS the bt icon turns on GPS/keyboard selection. Interesting, I have not try to use copy/paste for file transfer, I will try next time. I used to use USB cable to do file transfer. Not any more, getting lazy, I just use the BT and works fine with me.:) and the BT send/receive can be initiated from either the PC or the 770.

Humbly disagree. it can be initiated from either ends, the PC or the 770/2007He. I am doing it many times everyday. I carried my 770 in my pocket and update files as the day goes on. and at the beginning of the days, i dl/ul with PC at home and before leaving work at the end of the days, i dl/ul with PC at work. PC at works is NOT the same PC at home. both PC are win XP Home using a BT USB adapter.:)

You need to have DUN or something like that on your PC in order for the 770 to pair it as a phone.

Go maemo.org/downloads/communication/bT xfer, I do not know how to make it work. It does install on 770/2006OS without problems.
