Why can't I connect to other devices via bluetooth on my blackberry pearl?

Question

I have a blackberry pearl 8130 and I have been trying to connect to other devices (phones, computer, etc.). I can pair with them, but then it doesn't give me the option to connect with them. I checked the help page and it said that you click on a paired device then click "connect" but the connect option isn't there. At one point it was and I remember I was able to connect, but other than that one time it hasn't come up again. It only gives me the "delete device," "device properties," and "transfer address book" options. Is there some setting I need to change? My phone's set to discoverable, bluetooth is enabled on both devices, they're both within range and already paired up, so why won't they connect and stay connected?

Answer 1

from  what  i remember  i think  both devices must be in pairing mode  and the  passcode must be entered.  most devices its 0000  try deleting the device and pairing again.  good luck
