Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Services 138
When the discoverable mode is active, a message displays when
another device attempts to establish a bond or connect with your
phone. You must accept the incoming beam to exchange data or
information with other compatible Bluetooth wireless technology
enabled devices.
Making your Omnia Discoverable
To set your phone to be discoverable by other devices, follow
these steps:
1.
From the
Today
screen, drag and drop the
Wireless
Manager
widget onto the Today screen.
2.
Tap the
Bluetooth Settings
icon
➔
Mode
tab.
3.
Place a checkmark in the “
Turn on Bluetooth
” check box
by tapping the screen.
4.
Place a checkmark in the “
Make this device
discoverable to other devices
” check box.
Other common devices can now detect your device and
attempt to beam information to it, establish a connection,
or use a Bluetooth service.
5.
Tap
to save your changes and return to the previous
screen.
Note:
If you do not want your Omnia to be discoverable, clear the “Make this
device discoverable to other devices” check box.
Bluetooth Bonds
A bond is a relationship that you create between your Omnia and
another Bluetooth wireless technology enabled device to
exchange information in a secure manner. Creating a bond
involves entering the same Passkey on the two devices sharing a
bond. Once a bond is created between devices, the devices do
not have to be discoverable to exchange information; however,
each device must have its Bluetooth radio on.
Bonds are created only once between devices. Once a bond is
created, devices can exchange information as soon the bond is
recognized, eliminating the need to discover one another or to
enter security features like a common Passkey.
Creating Bluetooth Bonds
You can create a bond between your device and another device
that has Bluetooth wireless technology. Once you do this,
Bluetooth doesn't need to be in discoverable mode in order for
you to beam information between the two devices; the Bluetooth
radio only needs to be turned on.
Note:
Make sure that the two devices are within range of one another and
that Bluetooth discoverable mode is enabled on both devices.
