reboot a bluetooth devices wirelessly!

yeah i tryed it

it works great
but the one i use is " 1 "
thats 5 spaces in-between

yes thats correct.. u need 5 spaces in b/w the 1 and the speech marks!

I've moved this here as Symbian have asked for it to be taken down. Thoughts?

Can't see that it does much harm to be honest, it's just a bug/glitch in the software, I don't have a S60 to try it on but it seems from re-naming the phone in a certain way somehow sends a command to the phone trying to connect to shutdown/turn off.

Obviously this will be in next weeks S60 virus if it gets all over the net, which is probably why Symbian asked for it to be removed?

I dread to think who was that bored that they sat there trying combinations to find out what would happen.

Or it was just "leaked" by someone from Symbian or Nokia or who-ever

Aye either way it seems harmless and it strikes of M$ telling people not to let people know there's holes in their software as they are too lazy to patch until a year or two after it was found. Lets face it it's only really gonna be used by some guy down the pub saying "watch this". I can't see any exploit where this would cause a problem, as it's the connecting phone that gets turned off, and it's simple enough to say "don't send anything to anyone's name is " 1 " as it'll turn your phone off".

I'd say its harmless too, but I can't see any point in having it public either.
