Hi,
Although English is not my first language, I’ll try to explain what happens to my N900. A week ago, when I paired my N900 using Bluetooth to other S60 phone (N70), the N900 was correctly detected by N70 as a phone device. The same happened when I paired my N900 using Bluetooth with my Windows 7 laptop, the N900 was detected as a “phone” device (synchronization via Bluetooth using PC-Suite was possible, because the N900 was correctly detected as a “Phone” device). However, three days ago, when I tried to switch on the Bluetooth of my N900, the device name was not “Nokia N900” as usual but some kind of long system message (sorry, I cannot give you the exact text because I deleted it to write “Nokia N900” again). I did not pay much attention to this fact. However, when I sent a file from Windows 7 to N900 via Bluetooth, I noticed that the device type in Windows was not a “Phone” but “Other”. The file was correctly sent, but the PC-Suite was not able to detect the phone using the Bluetooth connection. I tried to pair again the phone to the S60 device, and it was not detected as a Phone (the icon in the Bluetooth configuration of N70 phone was not a phone but a generic Bluetooth device). I have tried to delete the device in Windows, also delete the link in N70 and re-pair again, nothing worked, the N900 is always detected as a generic Bluetooth device.
I have only installed two apps that make use of the Bluetooth: FMRadio and Petrovich. I guess that a bug in FMRadio has corrupted my Bluetooth configuration, because this app is quite buggy at this time (sometimes a restart of the device is required so the FMRadio can work again).
I’m not a linux expert and I don’t know where it stores the Bluetooth device name, type, etc. I suppose that there must be a file which is corrupted. I do not want to reflash my device because this seems a minor problem. Could somebody help me?
Best regards,
Iker.
