Haven't tried to send a file from my phone, but everything seems to work now. As I suspected it was the kbluetoothd who stopped functioning. Just stop it before you insert the dongle, insert dongle, do a hciconfig hci0 up then restart kbluetoothd. Except for an error messge about device number in hcid.conf, everything seems to work fine

by the way, try out the remote controls in your k700, it now works as mouse input and everything

...works now as it should with k700i here, boot pc, plugin usb bluetooth dongle, enable BT on k700i and I can browse/send files, use kmobiletools and so on...

The last thing what doesn't work is "paring"..

When I browse to my k700i folders I have to allow this on the phone directly on every folder change
Also when I send a file from k700i to the pc it is successfull but shouldn't be there a pin code request?!
And when my friend sends a file to pc he get's this pin request dialog and a popup where he must select the folder where the file should be stored, why does this not work here ?

Thanks

The short story is that you have a dongle that has not been licensed.
The end result is that you should take it back whence it came and get a new one.

The long story is available at http://www.google.com
