I am able to send files to another devices but I cannot receive any type of files (pix, music...etc) from the devices. For example, my friend tried to send me a file using the bluetooth....we are paired up but the file transferring failed....can anyone help? Thanx!!!! ๐Ÿ˜•

Verizon restricts thier phones to not accept files via bluetooth so you have to pay them for ringtones, ect.

It's a different story for me. My wife had an unlocked Moto L7 and was able to send me a ringtone via bluetooth to my phone (LG VX9400), however, my phone recognized it as a 'sound' and does not let me use 'sounds' as ringtones. That's how VZW disabled my phone.

You can't Bluteooth ringtones of Music from phone-to-phone.

Only Vcard, My Pictures, My Sounds, My Vidios. You can't reasign My Sounds as My Ringtones.
