"retail" config question OT???

[ken]

I signed up for this list, not because I'm a bluetooth developer, but 
for help configuring my system.  Reading all the messages on development 
passing here the past week or so, I'm thinking I might have the wrong 
list.  If so, please ignore my query below (or respond if you care to) 
and direct me to the appropriate list.

For several weeks I've been trying to use bluetooth to connect my 
Android phone (running BlueTerm) to a terminal on a Raspberry Pi.  I've 
somehow gotten them paired and connected and have transferred a file 
from the Pi to the phone.  But when attempting to connect from BlueTerm, 
it says "Connected" just for a second, then a second message appears 
saying, "Device connection was lost".

"grep -i blue /var/log/*" yields a lot, among which is:

I haven't been able to get blueTerm to output any logs.

Perhaps helpful:

Running "rfcomm -a" returns nothing at all.  Not knowing or finding 
anywhere what to put in any of the /etc/bluetooth/* files, that may not 
be surprising.

TIA for any help you can provide.
