I have reported the problem, but I do not know anything about "hcidump", and frankly it's not my job to do Nokia's quality assurance legwork. Nokia is in the mobile phone business and they certainly should have a Treo available for testing.

Sorry for offtopic.

There is quite a lot of bluetooth IOP testing being done (in context of single companies and also as demanded by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group), some exotic devices (in Nokia's opinion) might slip through the 'net'. Maybe Palm will have a presence in the next bluetooth unplugfest..

The problem is that the BT profile implementations in some phones are lackluster and contain bugs that cannot be remedied on remote end. Then theres the "slight" issue that especially in the US the operators have much power over the hardware vendors and retail market - end result is crippled operator-specific devices (sad, sad).

The bluetooth (user space) functionality in the tablets, bluez-utils, is developed completely in open source and free software (google for BlueZ). Bugs can be also reported in that context, and fixes eventually end up to tablets, too. Kernel space part is synced for the most into linux mainline. The developers are usually not very willing to implement device specific hacks, they rather stick to the standards. If helpful users can provide logs, they still might.

Anyway, I don't try to justify anything, just hopefully providing some insight. I found one bug having word "treo" in summary (here), made a few days ago. If this is your bug, thanks for that.

When I first received my N800, in Jan 2008, I fooled around with it for several days before re-flashing to OS2008. One thing I did was to send some memos from my Palm T|X via bluetooth to the N800. It worked great and was very simple to do. As soon as I re-flashed my N800 to OS2008, I could no longer send data. The two devices see each other and will pair, but no data is transferred. Why? Anyone know?

Wow, thanks for the information in this thread! Explains a great deal of stuff.
Any way for my N810 to have a Bluetooth FTP or SSH server? I want to be able to sync with it via Conduit, but I hate doing so over the network. It, err, isn't cool enough...
Alternatively, is there a way to mount some kind of Obex push file system? (Using Ubuntu on my main computer).
