Title:
  cell/mobile phone has to be added as an input device to be used as a
  Bluetooth remote control

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I've managed to get my cellular phone (a Sony-Ericsson z520) working as a remote input device, but in order to get it working, I had to:
  Open Bluetooth preferences
  Select the service tab
  Select the input service
  Click the add button under the list of input devices
  Click on the "show all devices checkbox"
  Select my phone to be added

  Once this is done, I can successfully initiate a remote control
  session from the phone's UI. If I remove my phone from the list of
  input devices, then attempt to initiate a session, the phone says it
  is connecting, then that it's "connecting remote control", and then it
  fails there.  It would be better if this worked without needing to add
  the phone to a list of input devices before making an attempt.
