bluetooth connection to cell phone

I have a Motorola cell phone with Bluetooth. Is it possible for me to connect my x50v to the phone so that I can transfer photos that I have taken with the phone to my axim?

Yes, it's possible. Go to the BT Function of your phone and select "Find Me". Then turn on BT on your Axim and in your BT Manager, tap on "Explore a BT device". It should be able to detect your phone. Follow the steps for pairing them when prompted. You want to set up "OBEX File Transfer".

OBEX is disabled on some Motorola phones. If you have the Verizon V710, you can't do this without applying some kind of hack to the phone's ROM. However, if you have a GSM Motorola phone (European provider, Cingular, Tmobile), it can be done.

OK. Everything worked according to your direction until the phone and the axim asked me for a Bluetooth passkey. How do I get that?

Just enter any combination of four numbers you want. When you are prompted again on the other device, just enter the same numbers.
