    FWIW, I am a KDE Desktop user.

    I have "kde connect" installed on my Samsung phones. 
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kde.kdeconnect_tp 
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kde.kdeconnect_tp>

    This doesn't use bluetooth, but does add extra features/abilities. And it 
transfers files
    without problem.  For me, I find this a better solution since not all my 
desktop systems
    have bluetooth.


Yes but that does not solve the problem. All it does is work around it.

Which is why I said "FWIW".


I mean if I need to transfer files from a another device which does not have or 
supports KDE Connect, I am back in the same bind.



I suppose I could test it for you.  But have you tried installing an app such 
as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bluetoothx.filetransfer.become 
?
