OBEX

This section explains how to use the OBEX (object exchange) application to trade business cards, contacts or files with another
Bluetooth device that supports OBEX.

Bluetooth OBEX application supports five operations:

Exchange Business Cards

Send a Contact

Send a File

Browse Remote Device

Receive Contact or File

Enable File Sharing

The first four operations - exchange business cards, send a contact, send a file, and browse remote device - are client-oriented.
They involve initiating an object exchange.

The last two operations - receive contact or file and enable file sharing - are server-oriented. They involve accepting objects in
an exchange initiated by another Bluetooth device.

Exchange Business Cards

1. Make sure both Bluetooth devices have a business card assigned to them.

If each device does not have a business card assigned to it, you cannot exchange business cards.

To assign a business card to your device, do the following:

Tap on the Bluetooth icon. In the pop-up menu, tap Advanced Features > My Bluetooth Device.

Tap on the Object Sharing tab. Under My business card, tap Assign

In the next screen, select your business card and tap OK. If your business card is not listed, tap Contacts to create one.

When you return to the Object Sharing screen, tap OK.

2. Make sure the other Bluetooth device is set up to receive a contact. The device must support the OBEX Object Push profile.

Note: If the other device is also using the Bluetooth Connection Kit, you can set it up to receive a contact by tapping the Bluetooth

icon. In the pop-up menu, tap Transfer via Bluetooth > Receive Contact or File.
