ObexFTP project enables you to access the memory of your mobile device.

ObexFTP is a library bundling the needed parts and exposing them by an simple interface. Currently there are language bindings to C, PERL, PYTHON and TCL. There is a sample command line application included called “obexftp”. Besides FTP the ObexFTP library exposes access to the PUSH, GOEP and SYNCH services.

Files and folders are accessed via OBEX FTP standard. That standard is defined in the Object Exchange protocol (OBEX) section (K12.5) of the File Transfer Profile (FTP) in the Bluetooth V1.1 Profile Specifications. See this K12 overview. It’s also possible to use other services like PUSH, GOEP (see K10 overview) and SYNCH (e.g. to retrieve the telecom/devinfo.txt).

The common usage for ObexFTP is to access your mobile phones memory to store and retrieve e.g. your phonebook, logos, ringtones, music, pictures and alike.
