Sending and Receiving Information Using Bluetooth
You can use Bluetooth to transfer information between your phone and another Bluetooth-enabled
device such as a phone or laptop computer. You can send the following types of information,
depending on the device you are sending to:
• Images and videos
• Contacts
• Audio files
To send files, your phone must have a microSD card installed.
NOTE The first time you transfer information between your phone and another device, you need to enter or confirm a
security passcode. Your phone and the other device are then paired, and you will not need to exchange
passcodes to transfer information in the future.
1. On your phone, open the application that contains the item you want to send.
2. Follow the steps for the type of the application, select Send File or Send in the menu. Then
select Bluetooth.
3. If you are prompted to turn on Bluetooth, tap Turn on.
4. Tap the name of the receiving device.
5. On the receiving device, accept the file.
Receiving information from another device
Your device is capable of receiving a wide variety of file types with Bluetooth, including photos,
music tracks, and documents such as PDFs.
To receive files from another device, your phone must have a microSD card installed.
1. From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings.
2. Tap Wireless & networks >Bluetooth settings.
3. If Bluetooth isn’t turned on, check Bluetooth to turn it on.
4. Tap the Discoverable check box.
5. On the sending device, send one or more files to your phone.
6. If a Bluetooth authorization request is displayed on your phone, enter the same passcode on
both your phone and the other device, or confirm the auto-generated passcode.
7. When your phone receives a file transfer request notification, slide down the notifications panel,
and then tap Accept.
8. When the transfer is complete, a notification is displayed. To open the file immediately, slide
down the notifications panel, and tap the notification.
