[solved] unable to send files via bluetooth - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have the following issue:
I’m not able to send files (like photos or documents) via Bluetooth to a win7 or win10 PC.
Every time I get a send-error with no detail information.
If I try to send a file from the pc to my phone via Bluetooth, this works fine ….
What could I do?

You obviously know that you have to right-click the bluetooth icon on your taskbar and select receive a file. Don't you?

is there any software or anything that can be downloaded to make the bluetooth have more options on the xda mini or wizard??? i would like to be able to transfer files between phones/laptops/computers etc from my xda wizard via bluetooth????? please help..
many thanks
I don't know about phone-to-phone, but you can already do phone-to-laptop or phone-to-desktop via the bluetooth. You can set up activesync to work over the bluetooth connection (I believe there are threads on this forum; if not do a Yahoo search). Once that is set up, you can transfer files between the PC and the phone over bluetooth.

1. ActiveSync and a file browser
2. OBEX does work
3. if you need the File Transfer Profile (see http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1065&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 for an explanation of the difference between it and OBEX - or, for that matter, ALL these file transfer issues), AKU3 will contain it too

USB Transfer Problem. Help!

Hi all, can anyone sort this -
When i connect via usb i choose 'disk drive' to transfer files/music etc to the phone. Everty time i try to transfer anything it says on the PC (windows xp) 'cannot copy xxxx - the path is too deep'
Has anyone else had any problems or does anyone have any ideas? Thanks
My first reaction is to say that wherever you're trying to copy from or too has a long pathname. Are you trying to copy individual files or whole folders, and where are you trying to copy from/to (e.g. My Documents)?

It doesn't matter how long the filename is it still says it. I've tries individual files and full folders but still the same. And i've tried copying from/to all sorts of different places but still no joy???
Hmmm. Maybe the way that Windows is transferring files is malfunctioning. This is definitely an advanced problem, which requires an expert.
*Waits for expert*
First of all, try another USB port. If that doesn't work, try this, in order. stop after the diamond works:
1- uninstall/reinstall activesync, then try accessing files with it.
2- Stop the Diamond usb drive by clicking the safely remove device icon. Then plug it again.
3- Uninstall all USB Root hub in your windows device manager, then reboot computer.
4- Hard Reset device.
5- Reinstall Windows
6- Return Device.
Can you try moving a file name with 8 chacters or less from your c:\ to the phone? Eg c:\song.mp3 to your phone
Also, what OS are you using? What file system does the phone 'disk' show up as in windows?

It shows as fat32. ?
this simply means the files are under a folder tree with too deep or too long with characters. such as:
C:\My Documents and Settings\Andrew Loh\Documents\my structural folders\andrew loh\scanning\pdf\finanacial documents\banking stuff\hong kong bank\bank statement\date 2008-06-09\page 1\200806091211224412.pdf
Simpliest thing first.....take your diamond to another computer.....confirm if it's computer problem or diamond problem

It seems related to FAT system I guess.
Could you try to format the disk from PC when connected as DISK mode and try to copy file or folder again?
This might be helpful.

Right - i've tried to transfer files from a different pc via 'disk mode' and it worked fine.
I can transfer stuff from mine via active sync but it takes ages transferring albums etc. It must be some setting on my computer causing the problem, although i don't have problems transferring things to sd cards etc. Any ideas?
For the love of God...
Hi All,
This seems like a very old problem but as far as I can tell, was never resolved or someone didn't share their solutions with the rest of us lovely newbies!
Unfortunately for me I am now having the same problem and after searching the forums it led me to this thread (along with two others that didn't have any difinitive answers either). When trying to copy anything that is within a folder from my comp (be it from a partitioned drive or the desktop of the root C: drive) I get the error "Cannot Copy ****ath is too deep".
After much trawling on the internet I found some third party software that should have solved the problem. No such luck , when using that I get a "semaphore timeout error". Next I try to direct extract from a .rar file to the internal memory and it tells me the reason it can't complete is that "the disk may be full".
As it stands now; I've formatted my phone's internal storage (and then had to transfer all programs one by one back over from my comp), enabled DMA transfer from the Device Manager in Windows XP and still no luck at all.
Could someone please shed some light on this as (as you could probably tell by the long winded post) I'm at my wit's end with this despite loving the phone in general!
Cheers in advance,
Night
I also have the same problem,
When i use activesync, big files like movies can only be put on the device itself, not the internal memory of 4g.
When i use the diskdrive option, the computer sees it als an usb storage, but files cannot be transferred, because of the "path is too deep" error.
in dutch it is called "pad is te lang", any options?
Also does someone know where to buy the official extended battery in Holland, because bol.com cannot deliver and other sites are way expensive.
Ok, just fixed it.
I turned off the activesync software in windows.
Connected the device to my usbconnector on the back of the pc (a 2.0 usbdrive)
Then it worked! Now 755 mb of .mp4 movie on the device...
i dont know if someone still got such a problem. I got it today and solved it with flashing an other rom on it from the Ruu.

activesync problems..

Hi all,
Not sure why, but when I connect my diamond to the comp and try and connect w/ active sync, get a message on my phone saying I must install active sync 4.5 or newer on my desktop computer. However, I just did before connecting
If I cant get active sync to work, could somebody please explain how I can install net compact framework via direct file transfer? I intepreted the instructions on the microsoft website as to install the msi file while the phone was connected but nothing's happened and no cab files have appeared on my phone so obviously not doing it correctly.
Thanks in advance!

First Name Last Name Phone Number 1 Mobile Number And nothing ive tried didnt work.
Contacts Are Agian Shown Without Numbers Or Numbers Show In "Notes" And Its Not Possible To Call.
*Ive Tried Also To Mark Only The "Phone Cotacts" And Export It To SD Card, But Its Making Me a File with 1453Contacts (I have only 180 On My Original List, Only 10% Of them has 2Numbers Or More.) (i have on my phone display total of 180contacts and my sim has 330contacts but its not marked.)
And Than When I Reload The File From SD Card To Gmail Trough The Phone, It Gives Me Many DOUBLES, Missing Numbers Etc...
Ive Been Tring To Do That All Day Long And Just Cant Find The Solution.
Can Anyone Help Me?! Please :]
Thank You Very Much Guys
Try this http://www.fjsoft.at/en/ (It's free) and use kies only for rom updating (only thing it can do properly )
Enjoy.
Even I am in need of managing my contacts & wondering what work flow should I adopt so all gets sync with phone & gmail., I tried MyPhoneExplorer its a good software I tried connecting my samsung galaxy I9003 but it doesn't work as yet with this new model, though it supports I9000.
Kies I find useless except the samsung official stuff updating,

MyphoneExplorer should work with your I9003 too, try the uninstall/reinstall process.

uninstall/reinstall the phone/modem driver or MyphoneExplorer?
I wish it connects with I9003, but it says "connection to phone could not be established, no device attached to usb".
I am connecting the phone to LCD monitor usb hub not to the rear usb ports, could that be an issue?

MyphoneExplorer of course ^^ (on your PC), check if the client part is installed on your SGS too.
About the Hub, yes it can be a problem.

didn't understand this part, what does CLIENT mean?

The software work as a client side (app on your sgs) / server side (app on your PC), in order to comunicate and synchronize, so when you install PhoneExplorer on your PC it install an APP on your SGS. Just uninstall/reinstall it on your PC and it'll push it automaticaly on your phone.
Oh I didn't connect the phone while I installed the MyPhoneExplorer that could be the reason.
Let me try this.

Make sure the debug mode is checked too (Settings -> applications -> devlopment -> USB Debuging)
Ok Thanks that finally solved the problem.
(it created few more problems while installing & showed a failed driver) but it took some time over 5-7 mins to initialize the modem & then showed it connected.
My phone explorer is great in terms of feature you can dial via computer receive calls via computer, send & receve sms via computer, edit/add contacts much better to do on computer than on small keyboard.

Make sure kies is not running in background process and try it with the stock USB cable directly connected on the PC (maybe a hub issue).
Ok all problem solved now,
do I need to switch off debugg usb settings again when I need kies, its not connecting with kies now or is that background service of kies (which I killed) is mandatory to connect with kies?

Yes disable the "debug mode" when you need kies again.

Unable to send apk files via bluetooth in ICe Cold 8.0

Hi,
One more query from my end. I am able to user Bluetooth very well with the phone and use it in the gallery. But when I go to File manager and browse through the SD card and when I am trying to send an APK file via Bluetooth, it does not give Bluetooth option under sent. It only gives Gmail and Skype. Am I doing some thing wrong or it is designed to work in this way.
I received all those APK files via Bluetooth and ideally even I should be able to transfer then via bluetooth. Please advise.

use ES Explorer best in my humble opinion
go check this out >>> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&hl=en
Better use ES File explorer as ezio2 suggested where you also can backup your apk through application manager
Hi paarkhi and ezio2 I will surely try ES File explore...Installing it now.
Thanks reversegear, as advised by you I tried Root Explorer and it worked.
