Software version: >*<<*<* for service menu, where <> is direction of joystick and * is the star button.

It is a fantastic phone, go to connections, bluetooth then settings and set device to un-discoverable or something like that.

I think BT range is about... i'm not sure. more than 10 metres. [addsig]

The site is ok for getting to know about bluejacking, but on the forum you get banned for having an opinion.

Btw, nobody seemed to answer your question.

Your phone is up to date. AFAIK there are no security problems with Bluetooth v2.0 that the K750i has.

In fact, of all the older phones that are at risk, only a small portion of them are vulnerable, and theres an even smaller portion of people who have the knowledge and software to bluesnarf phones.

Dont worry about leaving Bluetooth discoverable or not. Theres virtually no risk of your phone being hacked, and unless you want to recieve messages or files from other people theres no reason to make your phone undiscoverable.
