Browsing your Android Phone through Bluetooth

My Android phone was sucessfully paired with my KDE desktop without any issues. While browsing the device through bluetooth, only folder names were visible. I couldn’t create new folders too. However, When i’d drag my data/music into it, the files would get transfered and is visible from the phone.

I opened the the Android file manager, went to the SD card directory, properties then Bluetooth Visibility.

Then the files which are to be made visible have to be checked ONE BY ONE!

This really sucks. Is there a way to make a whole directory visible to bluetooth by default? Please let me know in the comment section 😉

My Device: Samsung Galaxy Pocket S5300

Kubuntu 12.04 released. Upgrade or Install afresh?

I am very impatient to test the new Kubuntu 12.04 which is a Long Term Release version i.e. it will be supported for 5 years. It is supposed to be hyper stable 🙂

However, i haven’t taken the decision whether to upgrade my current Kubuntu or to wipe my partition and install afresh. Unfortunately, to my knowledge, we can’t download the .iso file and upgrade from it offline as it tried when upgrading to Kubuntu 11.10. They really need to add this option in Kubuntu installation (or maybe they did it already in this version?).

Anyways, i am very busy this week as i have exams starting soon. I don’t think i’ll be able to afford to wipe my current installation and reconfigure it as awesome as it is now:-

I think i’ll upgrade to Kubuntu 12.04 from the software center for now and later when my exams finish, i’ll do a fresh install.

Problem solved ^_^
