Trying to revive 'ubtd' (Bluetooth file transfer)
-
Well, if my calculation is correct that means about 2Mbits/s, it seems quite decent for Bluetooth.
Agreed.

Make Ratatoskr recognize various extensions?
I just wanted to give a quick feedback on this request. I initially thought it would be a simple matter of registering the BT SharePlugin for all file types. It turns out it's not as easy as that: as currently written, the ContentHub component of UT doesn't allow that (although it allows it for "destinations", e.g. when using FileManager to "download" a file). To make a long story short, if I register the BT SharePlugin for all file types, it no longer appears for any file type.
I tried another approach, which was to report unknown file types as Documents. This sort of works, but it has two shortcomings:
- it only works from inside Ratatoskr, i.e. you could re-share arbitrary files that are already sitting in the app cache, but you could still not use FileManager to share them directly.
- now, when sharing a raw binary file from Ratatoskr, the "share with" dialog also offers unsuitable apps like the editor.
Considering this, I'm rather reluctant to implement this "half-baked" workaround. There is already an enhancement request on the ContentHub's Gitlab to "cover all file types for the Share functionality", but it's open since 2021 and doesn't seem to be getting much traction.

FYI, on 24.04.2 and 26.04 obexd is now auto started

you said in the GH issue (sorry for posting it here, I'm too lazy to login to the MS thingy):
' For files with unrecognized extensions (which map to ContentType.Unknown) 'it's possible to add to the file viewer new relationships between extension and contenttype, see this MR
Don't know if this quite fits your problem, but it never hurts to spread information

@domubpkm
I guess you know but for larger files than few MB, and/or for largersbandwich, plus all files support, you have wifi transfert. -

WOW another "autocorrection" that passed my vigilance

I have just switched my phone back to 24.04-1.3 and obex is definitely started automatically.
