-- Partially solved --

I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 13.10 to Sony Vaio. I had bluetooth file
transfer (both ways) working nicely before that in 12.04. Now I faced
this problem.

I managed to partially fix the problem of transferring files from phone to computer by doing the following:
1. I installed the package "gnome-user-share"
2. Started "Personal File Sharing" from Ubuntu menu
3. Added ticks to following boxes
- Share public files over Bluetooth
- Require remote devices to bond with this computer
- Receive files in Downloads folder over Bluetooth
- Notify about received files

This solved the problem with receiving files from mobile device (Android
in my case) to computer. Which is the most important part for me.

But I still can't send files from computer to the mobile through
Bluetooth. If I try this, I get the error message: "GDBus.
Error:org.openobex.Error.Failed: Unable to request session"
