Bug Description

Using Kubuntu 7.10, Obexpushd 0.5.

Early in Kubuntu 6.10 It was easier (well, functional) to transfer files through Bluetooth from a Sony Ericsson Z530i, just discover the PC bluetooth adapter, enter a pin and then all was fine, KBluetooth automatically notified me when a file arrived through obex push.

When I upgraded to 7.04 I noticed that this functionality was no longer available, I did a clean install of 7.04 to see if that solved the problem, but it did not.

I waited for Kubuntu 7.10 hoping this issue were fixed, but noticed that -in this matter- Edgy Eft was better, I still can not transfer anything from my phone again.

btw, I installed Kubuntu Edgy Eft to see if it was a phone miss configuration, but it worked flawless again :).

I do not know which logs are helpful, but I wish to help you fixing this regression :)

Forgot to say that current behaviour is:

1. Phone discover PC
2. I try to send a file to PC
3. KBluetooth icon turns blue colored (from gray colored state).
4. Immediately phone complains about "Transfer Error" and disconnect.
5. KBluetooth icon turns gray colored again.

I can state that in Kubuntu 9.04 I can send files via bluetooth from the laptop (Dell Inspiron) to the phone, but not from the phone to the laptop. When attempting to send files from the phone to the laptop I encounter a connection error on the phone. The phone and laptop have been paired, the laptop is set to discoverable, and the obex server is active.
