- Signal details are being reported by Blueman-Manager. I have tried
it with the version of Windows XP that came with the laptop and I can connect to the 'phone and send a file to it. During this process a window pops up on the 'phone asking if I want to recieve the file. I get no such response when using Debian/Blueman so I assume the 'phone isn't recieving a request it can understand or not recieving the request at all.
As far as performance being impacted as I can't do anything with it yet there is no performance. :-)) To avoid any misunderstanding -
it's an Android 'phone not an iPhone.
Surely both Android and Debian should have good debugging tools available. Off-list, someone suggested I might have been thinking of bluez-hcidump for debian: http://packages.debian.org/bluez-hcidump
I don't know Android enough to suggest a tool for that.
One could install the Android SDK and then use "[installdir]/android-sdk/tools/adb logcat" to get an extensively verbose dump of everything the device is up to. As it happens, BlueTooth seems particularly verbose: here's a few lines from several hundred lines of debugging generated by turning BT on:

If you're going to get any useful clues, this is probably where to find them :-)

Installing the Android SDK seems a little extreme. :-))
I think I'll give up on this for the time being. I was trying to do it simply because my 'phone and laptop both have Bluetooth support and I thought that it might be useful but I don't have a need for it.
Thanks to both of you for your suggestions.
