Paired bluetooth devices can't transfer files
I have a Alienware laptop with Ubundu 17.01 installed. The problem I am having, is transferring files between the Alienware and my Honor phone.
The bluetooth applet works, and I can connect and pair the phone. I've tried the KDE blutooth manager, GNOME, Blueman and all have the same issue. Pairing is fine, it can see the phone, but file transfers time out.
dmesg and the system log show nothing untoward. How can I troubleshoot this? It seems that there is communication, but file transfer does not proceed. Unfortunately, I can't get anymore information other than a 'timeout' error, and the phone doesn't print anything useful either.
Any help would be appreciated.
