For audio, file transfer or both?

Both.

Hey, as you have file transfer and say Janky is broken, I'll ask if you installed any additional BT software?

Does Janky open?

If not, have you followed 666philbs`advice to reinstall it?

If successful, how is it you're looking to relay audio?

In other words, which two devices are involved?

[Blackfish]

I jad some success with Janky Bluetooth after trying again. I got everything connected. But when I tried to send files from the phone to the computer, the computer automatically disconnected every time. I'm getting closer.

[Semme]

Is your cable OEM or aftermarket? The latter are hokey @ best. What about my preference, CamPhoneTab?

[rcrsn51]

Of all the ways to download files off your phone, Bluetooth is the WORST. If MTP is working for you, don't bother with BT.

hi Blackfish,

Janky_BT is only for streaming music to a bluetooth speaker/headset and also using your phones network connection. as rcrsn51 says above, bluetooth is a terrible way to transfer files, use the inbuilt MTP connect or rcrsn51's CamPhoneTab

semmes wifi transfer is probably the fastest option

[666philb]

if you really want to send files over bluetooth, first off install obexftp from the PPM
then pair your phone in Janky_BT.
next get a list of directories

Code: Select all

obexftp -b DC:F0:90:2F:01:C5 -c / -l

i get ...... <folder name="PHONE_MEMORY"/><folder name="EXTERNAL_MEMORY"/>

then list folder contents example

Code: Select all

obexftp -b DC:F0:90:2F:01:C5 -c EXTERNAL_MEMORY -l

this next lists my pictures

Code: Select all

 obexftp -b DC:F0:90:2F:01:C5 -c EXTERNAL_MEMORY DCIM Camera -l

this transfers a picture off my phone to the computer

Code: Select all

obexftp -b DC:F0:90:2F:01:C5 -c EXTERNAL_MEMORY DCIM Camera -g IMG_20190128_114626.jpg

this transfers a picture from the computer to the phones camera folder

Code: Select all

obexftp -b DC:F0:90:2F:01:C5 -c EXTERNAL_MEMORY DCIM Camera -p /root/battery.png

transfer rate is very slow .... much slower than MTP

wifi not an option for me, as it turns out. Networking is required. I do a lot of work in the field, where there is no Internet connection. [...] Another cool way to transfer files is to get the cable which connects a USB flash drive to the phone.

Hi BlackF! I honestly think you will find here a solution to your problem. Though it's written for Debian's users, it can work perfectly in any pup.

Good luck!
