To copy files from and to your phone, you can use the program obexftp
. To use
a bluetooth connection, invoke the program like this:
obexftp -b {BD address of the phone}
Then you can append more options like -l
to list the contents of a folder on
the phone, -c
to change to a folder, -p
to put a file into a folder or -g
to fetch a file from a folder on the phone.
Here are a few examples: To change to the directory MMC and put the file
test.mp3
there you would invoke obexftp with
obexftp -b {BDADDR} -c MMC -p test.mp3
To copy the file back from the phone to the PC, accordingly
obexftp -b {BDADDR} -c MMC -g test.mp3
and to delete it use
obexftp -b {BDADDR} -c MMC -d test.mp3
For more information on obexftp use its manual page (man obexftp
).
If you do not like the command line interface, you can use the KDE Bluetooth
Utilities. In debian there is the package kdebluetooth
. This package installs
the KDE Bluetooth OBEX Client (kbtobexclient
) with a graphical user interface
to manage files on your mobile phone.
