Description of problem: I'm trying to "see"/syncronize a Motorola L6 mobile phone with my Linux box (stock FC6), over a Belkin F8T012 Bluetooth USB adapter (Broadcom chipset). Using hcitool, I can "see" the phone, connect, authenticate and browse its features. However, it seems there is neither obexftp included in distro (to exchange ictures and sound with the PC), nor a graphical frontend like Openobex-Tk to automate connection, browse phones's features, etc. xgnokii seems to work only with Nokia Phones. gnome-phone-manager doesn't "see" the Belkin Bluetooth adapter in its graphical interface. No PIM or other application I could identify seems to be able to exchange contacts (numbers, adreses, e-mail-addreses, etc.) with the Motorola phone. I consider this a serious bug/missing feature, given the big number of mobile devices on the market today. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openobex-apps-1.3-3.1 gnome-phone-manager-0.8-3.fc6 xgnokii-0.6.14-2.fc6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: I can't establish an useable Bluetooth connection with the Motorola phone. Expected results: FC6 should provide all necessary pieces to establish such a connection and to syncronize with mobile phones, given a supported Bluetooth adapter. FC6 should provide all necessary pieces to participate in a PicoNet. Additional info:

If you file a package review bug for Extras, this would be included. However I'm not going to do that work for you.
Hello, I will do that work with great pleasure, but can someone please point me to the exact procedure about meeting the formal requirements for inclusion in Extras ? Unfortunately, I'm neither a programmer nor an experienced contributor nor the author of ObexFTP ;-) Regards, Razvan
