Android phone problem receiving files from pc via bluetooth

[Guest linspinho]

I have a problem sending files from linux pc to Android phone through bluetooth.  I have search a lot and find some answers.

 

One says that google prevents android of receiving  files from pc or others android phone, because they are worried about of people exchanging app.

 

I dont know if that is true, I know that i'm not able to tranfer file from my linux mageia 3 to my rooted moto G and the one I had before, but I am able to send file from phone to mageia 3.  If this is true, is there a way to make this connection always enabled?

Es file explorer can do it through your WiFi or Bluetooth. I use WiFi and it works very well. I haven't tried it with BT.

If your trying to send an apk, changing the file extension usually works, i.e. myapp.apk-->myapp.txt.  Just change it back again after the transfer.

Zipping/Raring the file also works (or it did last time i tried).
