Public bug reported:

If I click "Send files to device", it gives me a file chooser.  I select
a file and it gives me a device selection dialog.  These should probably
be reversed.  I press Connect, and it gives a "File Transfer" window,
with an error.  "org.openobex.Error.ConnectionAttemptFailed".  It does
not have a retry button; only "Cancel".

When clicking "Browse files on device", it gave me a selection screen
which showed my phone.  When I clicked Connect, it disappeared and
nothing happened.  It should show an error if it can't connect.

After enabling file sharing in the phone, I tried again.  This time,
after pressing Connect, it opens a Nautilus window with an error.  Now
if I try to create a file, it gives an error.  "Error while creating
file new file.  There was an error creating the directory in
obex://[00:12:37:82:DB:47]/. Show more details: Operation not supported
by backend".

So my experience is that Bluetooth is totally broken in Ubuntu.
