Recently I got a Samsung W531 for my birthday and have had difficulties getting the bluetooth on it working. I have tried with 3 different bluetooth items 2 other phones and a PDA. It always comes up with "Try Connect from master phone" or something and I cannot send/recieve anything. It will search and find other bluetooth items easily and connect with a PIN but then I don't know how to do anything past there. Anyone help??

Were you trying to connect it to a bluetooth car-kit/handsfree or another mobile phone (for instance)?

The bluetooth only supports connecting to handsfree devices I believe.

I dont think you can transfer 'items' between handsets or a PC.

Oh ok thanks. Thats pretty useless then because then I'll have to buy a bluetooth headset or something but they are a bit dear.
