How to send picture or video over bluetooth?

Question

I didn't find any way to send taken picture to my friend via bluetooth. Is it even possible on my device - Samsung Omnia 7? Or on other devices?

This is unforgiveable that this feature is not available on windows phone. I always thought this phone was aimed at business users/professionals. — user1003, Jan 21 '13 at 23:54

No, transferring files over bluetooth is not possible. This is requested for as a feature for newer releases of the OS.

If you have an unlocked phone, you can use the DFT BT File Transfer utility to send files over bluetooth.

One more question: does this mean the transfer is not possible either way - from AND to the phone? – jumbo Apr 25 '12 at 8:00
Yup it means that. I would suggest you use an app like Whatsapp to send files over a data connection since the bluetooth option does not exist. – Thomas Apr 25 '12 at 8:03

No you can not send image if you do not have an app (which is only avaliable for DEVELOPER unlocked phones, i believe)

I was afraid of this answer... Is this true for every device running on Mango? Can you provide link to the app you are mentioning? – jumbo Apr 25 '12 at 7:08
Can you also explain how phones get developer unlocked? – Tamara Wijsman Apr 28 '12 at 10:58
