V525 Bluetooth FAQ

setting things up. Hope it's useful to someone.
*** GETTING CONNECTED ***
To connect you will need a USB Bluetooth Dongle.
Go to www.kelkoo.co.uk and search for USB Bluetooth Dongle, which should
cost you no more than £20
Plug in your dongle and install the software that comes with it. Don't
expect much from the software, it's the dongle drivers that are of the most
importance.
Head over to www.motclub.com (Spanish website) and download the Motorola
Phone Tools. Download both versions 1.23 and 2.16 as the latter is an
upgrade to the previous. After installing this you can do a live update to
the current version. All for FREE, which is good news.
In most cases I would suggest that you steer clear of "OBEX File Transfer"
as it will crash Explorer, with little reason.
*** FINDING & UPLOADING RINGTONES ***
For ringtones I suggest that you search on google for the following,
replacing the artists and title as you see fit. The artist/title in quotes
means that you want that exact phrase (so make sure you spell it right) and
the addition of the -ringtone and -polyphonic will exclude a majority of the
ring tone websites that will charge for the service.
midi "Queen We Will Rock You" -ringtone -polyphonic
Go through a few of the links and find a suitable MIDI file (have a listen
to them) and upload to your phone with the Motorola Phone Tools
*** UPLOADING GAMES ***
There are a bundle of games available from www.motclub.com (the games link
is http://www.motclub.com/motomedia/cat....php?cat_id=12 and for your
benefit "Juegos" means "Games" in English) which you can download. You will
be expecting to find a JAR file. Open up "My Bluetooth Places" and search
through for "OBEX Object Push" ... drag'n'drop the JAR file on here and your
phone should pipe up and ask if you want the connection and then to install
the file.
Be aware that not all games will work ... and that even when they do, some
aren't worth the effort. I have downloaded about 20 games and only kept
about 6 of them. Installed games can only (as far as I can see) be deleted
from the phone itself.
*** PICTURES ***
The same as ring tones really. Download them and send to the phone ... keep
them small (suitable for your phone display). No point in putting a 500Kb
JPEG on your phone when it displays a tiny picture. Something around 300 x
300 pixels mark will do you nicely, and will only be around 30Kb at most.
Guys (and ladies too, if you're interested), if you want a naughty picture
for your wallpaper that will catch the attention of anyone that sees it, may
I suggest finding photographs taken by "Rankin and Bailey" (should be plenty
on the net). These two guys specialise in erotic art taken in a perspective
that is supposed to make it look interactive with the camera. You'll see
what I mean.
Anyhow,
Have fun with your phone.
You're welcome to reply if you wish and I will post this ... along with any
new findings as I go along. Just like to try and help out where I can.
Cheers.
