Motorola E815 / E816 Hollywood
Did Verizon "cripple" the E815's BT?
p.s. the E815 is approved for OBEX and the V710 was not so it'll just be a few more months before we'll know for sure but I highly doubt you will see any Verizon Bluetooth phones with OBEX

I could not find this answer in the forum. I had read where customers brought a class action suite against VZ because of what they did to the V710's BT capabilities. So I was wondering if VZ let the E815 alone? Anybody know? Thanks.
The E815 is Qualified for Generic Object Exchange, whereas the V710 was not.
That does not mean that Verizon will enable the profile, but if the E815 is shipped all over the world, count on some foreign carriers leaving the profiles alone.
That would be good news.

in other words verizon is going to cripple the bt, it is already a given. The phone is going to be get it now enabled which means there is no way in hell that verizon is going to chance losing revenue because of the bt loophole. If a phone is going to have bt and get it now on it, it is always going to be bt crippled, if it is on the verizon network, get used to it, that will never change.
How does GIN lose money for VZW because of Bluetooth?
You download the application, and you can't put it on another phone, not even the same model. There is no way to do it with the TransFlash card, or even the data cable.
Bluetooth has no magical file transfer ability that does not already exist.
