I have the same problem and would it rephrase that - "A fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS doesn't offer any possibility to accept an OBEX Push from an Bluetooth device."
Information which setting has to be applied or which package has to be installed additionally can not be found. 'sdptool browse local' shows no OBEX or FTP. In this case no device will send a file to the ubuntu computer. I think OBEX Push should work 'out of the box' in both directions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1358134 Title: Bluetooth unable to receive files from phone Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 64-bit: Bluetooth will not receive photos or files from HTC Rezound running Android 4.0.3 OEM.

I also occasionally see an input/output error message. Bluetooth can send files to the phone.
