    Wondering what my issue is that I am having. Have an V6J, trying to connect my bluetooth RAZR phone to it to transfer pictures. I am using the ASUS bluetooth manager, and it's not working right. I can't see anything on the phone. Do users use the microsoft bluetooth manager or the asus one?

    i connect my razr through the w5f with just the stock bt manager..... i used it with the v6va for a while and the w3v before that... it all works about the same, but it can be a pain to set up.. after that it's easy. You've got to get your phone to put out a signal (turn bt on and allow it to recieve).

    I have it set up on the phone. Problem is when I go into bluetooth manager, and hit connect, it wants to dial on the phone like a modem. Odd

    Do you use Verizon? If so it is because Verizon blocks that feature.
