hey i have only used BT with 1 fone be4, my T68i. That phone was easy to use BT.

everytime i use my X70 BT, and i try to pair, it asks for a passkey. What is a passkey?

thanks

you never used psskey before?
basically when you pair 2 bt things, they need a security code entered for each one.

for example if you were using your computer to pair up by discovering your x70, and you try to pair, your comp will ask for a passkey and you just make one up. then your x70 will ask that and you enter the same code to pair. if you did it the other way by using your x70 to discover your comp, you would make up a passkey on your x70 and reenter it through your comp.
hope that helped.

That happend with me when i tried to pair a Plantronics M3000 headset to my X70, try using 0000 as a passkey, that's all i did with mine and its worked great ever since.

If you make your X70 device "not discoverabe," then you cannot be bluejacked.

glad to help as always
i tried bluejacking myself but it didn't work haha
and you do have to be discoverable to get jacked, but i still couldn't do it to myself

After trying myself, i found out it is possible to bluejack off the X70, but you cant be. All you need to do is search for a device that has bluetooth enabled and you can bluejack them. Goto www.bluejackq.com for information on bluejacking.
