Bug Description
I paired my desktop (Ubuntu 14.04 64 bits) and my Nexus 4 Android phone a long time ago, but I can't exchange files between them. When I send files from the desktop, I get "transfer failed (0x4b)" or a time out error message from openobex. If I try to send files from mobile phone to desktop, it reports a connection failure and nothing happens in the desktop.
In bluetooth settings, after selecting my mobile phone device, it says "Paired Yes, Type Phone", but the connection is always off. Both bluetooth and visibility are on.

I was able to send files to Ubuntu after going to Personal File Sharing and enabling "Receive Files over Bluetooth". Unfortunately, there is a gap between bluetooth errors and Personal File Sharing. I had no clues besides searching the Internet, and it was not a fast search. It would be better if the user is pointed to Personal FIle Sharing from bluetooth errors.
