Hey all, I recently purchased a Samsung SGH-C417 mobile phone and everything is going great with it, except for the fact that I can't seem to find or connect to any other bluetooth cell phones or devices. Every time I search for headsets it returns the message of "No Bluetooth Device Found, Try Again? Yes/No". I can't find my friends cell phones which have bluetooth running even though they can see one another and I can't find my Bluetooth USB Adapter PC tool either, so I can't upload/download pictures and such from my computer. I've searched everywhere to find an answer but I can't seem to find one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Later.

We just purchased four of these phones yesterday. Will probably end up returning them because of the limited the Bluetooth functionality.
It only supports the "headset" and "hand-free" profiles. You cannot transfer data (photos) to/from the phone and your computer with Bluetooth. Also, a data cable does not appear to be an option (not available for this phone on the Samsung Web site). Therefore the only way to transfer photos off of the phone is by emailing from the camera (at a cost of 25 cents each). It appears that they (Cingular / Samsung) have intentionally limited the file transfer functionality so you must use the network to get your photos. Other phones allow file transfers at this price point...don't buy this phone if you take a lot of photos. This is a major disappointment and ripoff. kvkk Last edited by kvkk : 10-02-2006 at 04:36 PM. |
