I have been trying to transfer files from my cellphone to my computer
over bluetooth quickly. Both are bluetooth 2.0 and I noticed under
linux that they do not transfer at much slower speed then under
windows. After some investigation I have to assume that they are
transfering using bluetooth 1.2 speeds & not bluetooth 2.0 speeds. My
cell phone is a Nokia N73 & usb dongle is belkin bluetooth 2.0 class1
usb dongle. I have tried this with Ubuntu Edgy & Fedora Core 6 using
the gnome file sharing applet on the computer to get the files.

After reading the source code I see the the VHCI is has a decleration
"define VERSION 1.2". Looking at the kernel code & bluez tools it does
not look like bluetooth 2.0 is supported. But I can't find a
definative answer anywhere.  Does anyone have any idea ?

Here is info on my bluetooth dongle:

I also went out and got a Bluetake 700sx and still do not get 2.0
speeds..what is going on. It looks like Bluez does not have Bluetooth
2.0 implimented.
