How can I use Bluetooth on my iPhone to discover other phones?

I recently tried turning on Bluetooth on my iPhone to try to discover my wife's phone. My wife has a Samsung Eternity phone. Her phone was in discoverable mode and my iPhone never could discover it. I also tried this with my friend who has an iPhone and it still did not work. Is the Bluetooth on an iPhone not supposed to be used to connect two phones? I thought it was supposed to be used to connect to other phones, especially iPhones for gaming purposes. Please help me learn to use my Bluetooth correctly or inform me if the iPhone is not supposes to connect with other phones through Bluetooth.

If you check the iTunes Apps store and seem to recall that there is a program that will allow you to transfer Photo's between iPhones using Bluetooth. I stand to be corrected but is this not a feature of the new iPhone 3GS Ant..

    The bluetooth functionality on the iPhone is limited. It's basically limited to audio devices (headsets, for instance), although certain apps allow greater functionality. Search the app store for "bluetooth share"

  • HT4976 how can I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS????

    how can  I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS In wts app nd version ov this is 5.1.1(9B206)????????

    Once the keyboard is connected, it should work with any app that uses the standard keyboard interface, so it will work with iWork.
    br121: iWork was released for iPad quite some time ago, and updated for iPhone 4 recently.

  • How can I use bluetooth on my Satellite C850-B906

    Please help me. How can I use bluetooth on my C850-B906 Satellite. I can't find it on the search bottom and even in PC Device, bluetooth is not there. This laptop has bluetooth according to its specs. (Bluetooth / W-LAN (802.11B/G/N).
    Any good answer will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi
    First of all: you are right: the Satellite C850-B906 supports Bluetooth
    http://www.toshibamea.com/CSPDF/Satellite_C850-B906-52424.pdf?ran=4qmi69d8z1
    But the notebook was not preinstalled with an Windows system and therefore I guess you installed the Windows OS (which one?) at you own hand.
    Probably you did not install the essential software / drivers which would allow you to use the BT
    The Realtek WLan module supports BT and therefore you have to install the Bluetooth Filter Driver Package a well as the BT stack from Toshiba driver page.
    After that you have to use the function key combination to enable the BT.

    Do you mean how can you use Find my iPhone?  To be able to turn it on, on an iPhone, go to settings-iCloud-then sign in to your apple account if you haven't already-then select find my iPhone.  Then go to privacy-location services-then turn on find my iPhone.  You can then view your devices location by downloading an apple app called find my iPhone on the App Store.  From a computer, you can log into iCloud.com and select find my iPhone in which you can locate your device. 

  • How can I use voicemail on my iphone 4s? Here it says "Cannot connect to voicemail". What should I do? I'm from philippines. Is there any code or something that I should do first?

    How can I use voicemail on my iphone 4s? Here it says "Cannot connect to voicemail". What should I do? I'm from philippines. Is there any code or something that I should do first?

    I think I worked out a solution given my equipment.  I was looking around on other forums and I found the following post concerning the ability for iPhone 4S to be on 3G and wifi simultaneously.
    "I know this thread is old and op may have discovered the answer already. However, I am posting this just in case someone else might be looking for a solution.
    The solution does not require any additional software nor require a jailbreak.
    All you need to accomplish this is already built into every iPhone and iPad with 3G.
    Connect to your wifi and write down the IP address your router assigned you. Then, select static tab instead of DHCP and fill in the IP address your DHCP server assigned to your iPad. Next, fill in the subnet mask but leave the rest of the fields empty.
    You now have access to your wifi as well as 3G.
    I ran into this issue when I wanted to use live traffic using 3G for my iPad's GPS and still connect to my GoFlex Satellite using wifi. It works extremely well."
    AFter configuring my phone to the router, as mentioned above, I connected my Apple TV to the same router.  Using the mirroring option I was able to airplay Netflix, You Tube and Flixster flawlessly from my phone to the big screen.  Direct TV and HBO GO did not work however. 
    I Then tried to access items directly from Apple TV thinking that it could use the data from my phone.  I was wrong.  So all in all I'm able to stream about half of my movie entertainment applications given my situation.  I'm pleased.

    Whatsapp requires iOS 4.3 or later which will not run on an iPhone 3G. If you want to run Whatsapp or any of the increasingly-more-common apps that also require iOS 4.3 at minimum, you'll need a newer iPhone.

    how can i use my iphone 4 in malaysia. it is currently locked to 02 uk

    If your iPhone 4 is locked to 02, then you'll need to use the international roaming method to be able to use the phone in Malaysia and that is an add on to your 02 contract.
    Other than that, then you need to contract 02 directly and get them to unlock your phone for you.  Only 02 can do this as your contract is with them.
