[Bug 1535030] [NEW] Can't recieve files from phone over Bluetooth

 

Public bug reported:

When I try to send files from my Android phone to my computer over
Bluetooth, the phone connects successfully but then refuses to send the
file with the error message "Transfer forbidden by target device".

The following ends up in my /var/log/syslog:

Jan 16 22:54:07 eristic obexd[2234]: CONNECT(0x0), (null)(0xffffffff)
Jan 16 22:54:07 eristic obexd[2234]: CONNECT(0x0), (null)(0x0)

Strangely, the expected file is create in my Downloads folder, but the
file is empty:

$ ls -l ~/Downloads/
total 0
