How to send files via Bluetooth using obex in IMX7 platform?

[gopinathsriniva]

Hi All,

I am working on IMX7 Linux platform and below are the more details. 

Processor : IMX7 Dual 

OS : Linux from Yocto project (Morty)

Kernel version : 4.1.15 

BlueZ version : 5.41

I have enabled Bluetooth and I am able to successfully scan the Bluetooth devices. I want to test Bluetooth file transfer. I used bluetoothctl and was able to pair with the device. But when I try to connect via obexctl I am facing "Client Proxy Not available" error. Could any one guide me on the steps to test file transfer via Bluetooth ?

Hello Gopinath Srinivasan,

Are you still experiencing issues with this?

There are many variables but seems that the driver is working correctly. There are some forums with more information on obexctl as the documentation for it on the i.MX side is very limited, but I’ve seen users report that sometimes helps to run:

systemctl --user start obex

sudo systemctl --global enable obex

But I have no way to test it myself.

Please let us know of your findings!

Regards,
