[Bug 1148033] Re: GDBus.Error:org.openobex:Error.Failed: Unable to request session

[Juha Jeronen]

Ubuntu 13.04, affects me too. Running on an ASUS EeePC 1005PE. Tried to
transfer files between the PC and a smartphone running Android 4.1.

Tried installing blueman on the PC and using it instead of the default
bluetooth applet, didn't help. Sometimes blueman could transfer small
(30kB) files from the PC to the phone correctly, but large files (3MB)
would randomly hang the transfer. When sending any file from the phone
to the PC, the transfer would hang at the "connecting" stage.

However, while blueman is installed and running, it seems that the
default bluetooth applet (but not blueman) can transfer files correctly.
Such behaviour has also been reported by others.

So, as a temporary workaround, I followed the instructions here:

http://krazyabouttechnology.blogspot.fi/2013/05/solution-bluetooth-not-
working-after_3.html

to have just one bluetooth icon even though both the default bluetooth
applet and blueman are running at the same time. Now the transfer seems
to work in both directions.

Would appreciate if this was fixed properly :)
