Unbelievable.
Now, after 2 years and a half waiting for this to be fixed, and without hearing a thing from any developer, it TURNS OUT THERE'S A SETTING for this... IN THE WRONG PLACE, which you would never find unless you google for it.

In Personal File Sharing there's a checkbox "Receive files over
bluetooth". All you need is to enable that.

- this setting should be under Bluetooth Settings instead of (or in addition to) under Personal File Sharing.
- it should be accessible from the notification icon on the top-right corner of the screen

Title:
  bluetooth suddenly rejects all transfers (worked yesterday)

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I often send image files via bluetooth from my android phone to my
  ubuntu PC.

  It worked fine until yesterday, but now I systematically get "the
  remote bluetooth device rejected the request".

  Nothing has changed in the way I transfer files and I'm trying from
  the very same phone.
