How to Use Bluetooth to Send a Picture from a Treo Smartphone

The Treo Smartphone is one of the best phones on the market for taking pictures because of its high-definition camera. You may take a lot of pictures with your camera, but what good are they unless you can share them? Rather than spending a fortune sending your pictures as MMS messages, which are like text message but much more expensive, you can share photos using your Smartphone's built-in Bluetooth technology. Follow these steps to use Bluetooth to send a picture from a Treo Smartphone.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Another phone
• Treo Smartphone
• Pictures

1. Navigate through the menus and open the Photo Album. The Photo Album should show all of the photos that you have taken. If not, navigate to the folder where you have stored your pictures.

2. Select the picture you want to send via Bluetooth.

3. Open the menu and select "Send."

4. Select Bluetooth to allow your phone to start the process. Your phone will search for all available Bluetooth devices in range and display them on a list.

5. Select the device where you want to send your picture.

6. Press "OK" and wait for the other phone to receive your picture.

Tips & Warnings

• If you cannot find any phones in range, make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on the other phone and that the phone is visible. If Bluetooth is not enabled or the phone is not visible, it will not be listed on your phone.
• Some providers disable Bluetooth for receiving pictures so that you'll have to use their network. You can work around this situation by creating a photo album containing the photos you want to send. When you try to send the photo album, you will be presented with the Bluetooth option.
• If you want to email the picture instead of using Bluetooth, then select your email account at Step 4 and continue with the usual steps to email with your Treo Smartphone.
• Be careful of Blue Jacking, which is hacking into a phone using the Bluetooth protocol.
