Okay, I know I'm a newbie at this, but I saw a guy with a 3650. Tried to send a phone contact via
I see his phone on the list. I press send.
Connecting forever. And fails.
What am I missing?

A phone?

I have had no success bluejacking 3650's either and others here report a similar failure. not sure why though

I've read in the forum that post notes only work from
to . while phone contacts work for Nokia. Blah. A customer came in to my store to buy a phone and he owns a 3650. Thought my first bluejack would be right to his face.
Guess gotta wait till next time. He left now. Thanks guys.

with 3650 it says "recieve contact via bluetooth from

I see that's why. If it fails, does he still recieve the msg? or he must accept?

this happened to me a few times yesterday while bluejackin but i thought it was because they went out of range, as each time this happened, after it said failed i did another scan and the phone had gone. i thought they only accepted adding it to their contacts not viewing it, otherwise all bluejacking attempts would fail because hardly anyone accepts it to be added into their contacts when it is made up (unless they want it).
Edit: grammer

Once i tried to bluejack my frnd who owns 3650 AND ALSO HE IS IN MY B.T. List,, i sent him notes and my t610 said the note was sent.. But i didnt ask him if he recieved it
Posted by DragAzn
I'm totally lost.
So if I sent a contact via
to another person besides a 3650 it will automatically be sent to him? or does he have to accept it?
All this confusion makes me wanna
Posted by JohnM
I believe they have to accept contacts too. I've had similar problems attempting to bluejack 3650s
Posted by DragAzn
Is there a way around this? maybe something else I could send? notes only work on
phones. 3650 needs to be accepted. then what phones can actually be bluejacked?
Posted by vinnieza
i'm not totally sure, but i thought you send then contact then your phone says contact sent, then on the other phone it says contact recieved do you want to add [name of contact e.g. u've been bluejacked] to your contacts list? this is what they accept, but on your phone it'll still say contact sent even thought they don't aggree to but it in their contacts list, however this is different on different types of phones and depending what your sendind i.e a picture ect
Hope this helps

This is the procedure that i've got with 3650 and the new nokia N-Gage
Me:(T610)
Phonebook->Manage Contacts->Send Contact->"Previously saved funny message"->More->Send->Via Bluetooth
The Phone then proceeds to search the surroundings.
Devices found: Nokia N-Gage or maye Nokia3650->SELECT
It then shows the connecting screen with the bar moving and all
MEANWHILE ON THE NOKIA:
The 3650 receives a SILENT alert message box:
"Incoming Contact from Unknown User" [Accept?] [Decline?]
3 Things can happen at this stage
Scenario 1)
The Nokia User doesn't know of the incoming contact (esp. since there is no sound produced from the new alert) and the screen just stays at "Connecting" until my t610 automatically gives up after a while showing:
"Bluetooth Connection Failed" [Retry?]
The Alert then disappears from the N3650 and the Nokia user DOESN'T RECEIVE any Contact and doesn't know that he was just a bluejack target.
Scenrio 2)
Either Me or the targetted nokia phone moves out of the 15m range of Bluetooth,
My T610 will again display "Bluetooth Connection Failed" [Retry?]
Again the Alert just disappears from the N3650 and the Nokia user DOESN'T RECEIVE any Contact and doesn't know that he was just a bluejack target.
Scenario 3)
The Nokia User (who is playing some stupid game on his brick or sms-ing his buds to tell them how Nokia is releasing a cooler brick next week) notices the Alert. Clicks ACCEPT, GAME ON.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Apparently, This asking for permission thing works for everything else bluetooth (i.e pictures, sounds)
But on SE to SE, ONLY CONTACTS sent need not go through any:
accept/decline crap.
I'm going to try if business cards (NOT CONTACTS) need permission from SE to Nokia when i hit the streets tomorrow.
sorry for long post.

The perfect site for you guys... step-by-step guides, tips & tricks etc.
When sending notes, you can only send them to other phones that also have the note function, eg. SE.
ANY device (PDA, laptop, phone) with Bluetooth can be bluejacked.
I just want to point out that if you send a contact to a Nokia it will come up as a business card.

I have Bluejacked a customer of mine a few times, and he has a 3650 -never had a problem. Maybe a setup issue?
I've sent him Rolex pics, middle fingers, the SE logo, a message from "nokiasucks.com", etc. He laughs every time and sends me back all sorts of rubbish like fat nude women and that - what fun it is to live in the future.
Love it, great fun. Try this at Reno/Tahoe Airport and watch the fun! I even got a guy while he was on the phone! His phone made a hellish sound...

I've bluejacked a hell of a lot of phones since discovering how to in this forum - often devices that come up as "unknown" fail but sometimes they don't. I always send a contact, never tried anything else.
I've had t610's, countless bricks, a few n-gages, phones with some very fascinating names ("Eagerbeaver", "GayBoy" and "BigBoy" to cite a few) and I am totally addicted !
As is my bf, who uses a t68i, but I often have more success than he does (I've got a t610).
I always play nice though, I send something friendly. I'm in the uk - and I find shopping centres (particularly Lakeside in Thurrock) to be places *full* of potential hijacks !

rock on my fellow bluejackers

I've got a 3650- tonight I bluejacked about 3 T610's, one Palm PC and 2 7650's. Its awesome!!
I'm pretty sure my 3650 needs to confirm in order to recieve a contact or anything, but SE's obviously dont- so target them!

@hurny
Errr, i think you came to the wrong place.... Most people here won't bluejack their own 'family'.
Posted by hurny
Haha- well, personally, I dont care WHO it is! Its just as much fun either way.

Newbie here. Did it at work today and nearly laughed my arse off.

Me a total newbie. Anyone can direct me to step by step of how you Bluejack?
Posted by masseur
Start with this thread from yesterday which has a reasonably description for beginners... and then go on to this thread
Posted by TheEdge_
Just to say you can also bluejack here in denmark..
Tried it today.. Found to phone's but they went out of range before my SE picture went though
Posted by badrat_rachael
@TheEdge.
Try sending a contact instead. They're usually accepted more often than anything else. And keep trying - it'll happen one day. Shopping centres are good places.
Posted by jellyellie
contacts are also better than pics because some phones may have monochrome screens
Posted by TheEdge_
Thanks... I will try to send a contact... I have to go to copenhagen next week maybe i will get lucky..

Take a walk down Tivoli
Bet you'll find plenty there with the crowds.
