Please any one help me, where I get wrong.

Thanks in advance,

Try using the gui to get bluetooth working. Also, KDE has some good bluetooth apps in its desktop. See if Kubuntu is practical for you or if you can add KDE as a desktop. It is not unusual for one desktop to do what another can't.

Thank you very much for your great support.
Actually I want to study the system called and BlueZ api's used in file transfer via Bluetooth.
That's why I am using CLI mode, it's easy to debug the source of command.

Still, try using kbluetooth to get your device working. You may not even need to install KDE to use it, likely just a few extra dependencies. Use your package updater for this one. If it 'just works", there is no need to do any advanced debugging. Many of the desktops have bluetooth utilities. The best way to solve the problem is to go ahead, install a few of them and see if they work. kbluetooth is one of the better ones.
