Exclamation unable to connect bluetooth dongle to phone


hi all,

i have connected a bluetooth dongle to my laptop (with debian etch). the gnome BT manager is detecting it and working fine.
$dmesg
gives out the following:

Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized
Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.8
[drm] Initialized drm 1.0.1 20051102
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:02.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
[drm] Initialized i915 1.5.0 20060119 on minor 0
[drm] Initialized i915 1.5.0 20060119 on minor 1
usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Bluetooth: HCI USB driver ver 2.9
usbcore: registered new driver hci_usb

i am also able to pair the dongle with my phone (nokia ngage)

but, when i try to connect it with my phone, the connection is refused.
error:

bluetooth handsfree profile not supported..!

can anyone throw some light on wat could be the reason...?

Check what profile you are using in your phone.
