I would like to open this bug again, running regularily updated intrepid.

I can confirm that I was able to copy files from the phone (LG KU990) and to the phone with bluez utils 3.x, however, the recent update to version 4.12 of bluez utils breaks the direction phone to PC.

*With bluez-utils 4.12 my LG KU990 displays the message Failed to send to ... when sending a file to the PC (Asus eeepc 990 as well as HP NC 4010)
*Sending from the PC to the phone works fine
*Opening the phone via Browse device from the Bluetooth applet shows an empty Nautilus window. *Coping files from the PC into this window fails - message: Operation not supported by backend.

I do not want to rain on anybody's parade, but it do not understand the reasoning behind replacing working versions with unstable software at this point in time? I mean, it is not so much time to go until the release of 8.10 LTS, no?

Anyway, should there be a solution, please let me know, also, if you need any debugging information (hcidump etc.), gimmie a shout.
cheers
