Samsung C6625 - turn bluetooth on and off

[PigzleFly]

Can someone else with this handset share with me a quick and easy way to turn bluetooth on and off - currently it takes me about 10 keystrokes......

There must be an easier way!

Hi John,

Sorry you seem to be having a hard time with this handset! I have found the following in the manual:

Turn on the Bluetooth wireless feature

1.On the Home screen, press <Start> → <All Programs> → Settings → More... → Connections → Bluetooth → General Settings.

2.Press <Menu> → Turn On Bluetooth.

3.To allow other devices to find and connect to your device, press <Menu> → Turn On Visibility

unfortunately, that looks like 9 key strokes so it's probably the way you are doing it already. I will chase this query for you and report back ...

Hi Scott - don't forget the keystrokes to get one back to the home page!

Thanks for your answer, and looking into a solution. I've found that the battery life isn't great with bluetooth enabled and I'm in and out of my car all the time. I'd just like a simple way to disable bluetooth when I don't need it.

All the best,

John

Hi John you may have already found this by now but if you press the power button once quickly you get a quicklist, key 4 select blutooth to turn on or off

Thanks, Andy.

I had discovered that already, and it was remiss of me not to update the forum. Good of you to get back though, and I do appreciate it.

Regards,

John
