I'm developing a simple client server java application (cldc 1.0, midp 1.0) that allows users to 'chat' (exchanging text).

I'm using a 6600 and a 6230 to test on.

Both phones will are capable acting as client and server depending on which initiates the chat session.

The problem is that when the 6230 is the client, it cannot find the server (6600). When the 6600 is the client, it can find the client fine (6230), and operates as expected.

Both phones have the same code (incorporating both client and server) so I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

So does anyone know of any known hardware problems or quirks about why the same piece of code would work on the 6600 but not the 6230?

Thanx in advance!

Checklist:
1. Is Bluetooth initially switched on on Nokia 6600?
2. Do you use RFCOMM (SPP) or L2CAP protocol?
3. Have you tried the MIDP examples BtSppEcho, Btl2capEcho, DiscoverConnect? The echo-examples can be found inside of the 'Introduction to Developing Networked MIDlets...' document, the latter one in 'Games Over Bluetooth: recommendations to game developers' document.
4. Do you use LIAC (limited inquiry)? In that case, make sure that the server is in limited-discoverable mode and the client side is using LIAC in discovery.

You can find these documents in the Documents section in Forum Nokia www.forum.nokia.com.
