Sending large files through bluetooth pc suite problem

[bogu]

I have no problems installing apps or games on my Nokia 3650 but whenever I try to send a larger file like a movie or an mp3 it seems to send until it reaches about 2 mb and then it just stops and I get a message "Unable to copy, unexpected error occured" . Is it a problem with my Bluetooth device? A buddy of mine had the same thing with the same Bluetooth connector so I know it's not the phone... Any help appreciated

well, i nv tried sending movies... take way too long... maybe the connection cant last that long.

best if u get a mmc card reader, then u can transfer big files fast and easy.

tzeonn's right, i dont think bluetooth and specially irda can send large files! based on my experience... (in ir not bluetooth) i always send movies through ir but when the transfer is halfway (most of the time), it would just hang! and i have to restart my pc. and sometimes when im sucessful in transferring, it takes me about 4 hours for a 60 mb or somthing file! imagine that! :-o good thing i bought a card reader and the 4 hour transfer only takes 1min and 45 secs in the average! (i know i timed it! LOL) :D .

if u use pc suite... it will drop the connection after a while
if u use epoc pc file manager... it will also drop the connection
if u goto my bluetooth places - devices in range - ur phone - inbox... it will last alot longer but it will drop after a while here too (around 10mb++ , dont remember)
if u goto public folder instead of inbox... it WONT drop the connection. i think right click -> send to bluetooth is the same thing.

ive never ever lost the connection with the public folder send method. and ive send file over 60mb

hope that cleared out a few things
