Disable Bluetooth on your Sony Ericsson Phone

You should disable bluetooth on your Sony Ericsson Mobile Phone when not being used to prevent your cell phone from being Bluejacked!

While Bluejacking your Sony Ericsson cannot usually harm your phone, it can be upsetting to the unwary individual who gets these unsolicited messages, even if they are only playing a prank. Bluetooth is useful for sending small files, contacts between phones and is very popular among young phone users for exchanging pictures and the latest mp3 downloads including ringtones, so if you are in a public place it is not un-usual to find a lot of phones including Sony Ericssons appear as visible devices to anyone doing a bluetooth scan.

There have been reports of people trying to crash strangers phones by sending malware via bluetooth, so you need to be aware of that as well, so if you have a Sony Ericsson phone, disable bluetooth once you finish using it rather than setting yourself invisible.
