10.4: Enable fax send/receive via Bluetooth
Authored by: Interactive on Jul 22, '05 09:55:03PM
I own Sony-Ericsson T637 and T68i. So, I decided to try out the original hint. It did not work, but the results were not the same.

T637
On the Mac side, the Bluetooth-Modem launches but gets stuck with the message Waiting for modem to become available. On the phone side, Bluetooth connection is never established. Hence, no dialing.

T68i
On the Mac side, the Bluetooth-Modem launches and shows the message Dialing. But, it prematurely goes into a holding mode. On the phone side, Bluetooth connection is established and the phone dials the fax number specified in the Fax window on the Mac. But, since the Mac side prematurely goes into the holding mode, the phone terminates the dialing as well.

I have read somewhere that T68i has build-in support for fax, whereas T637 does not. This makes sense, because the T68i Manual has a page on faxing, whereas the T637 manual does not.

One earlier poster states that he was successful with T610. Since T637 is so similar to it, it is a bit odd that the hint does not work with it.
