Yes! probably obexftp
Have a look at the filepath Dolphin is using when trying to browse the
phone using bluetooth (you may have to enable display path in Dolphin).
If it's "obexftp://<bluetooth address>" AND
$ dpkg --get-selections obexftp
returns nothing then you'll need to install it.
# apt-get install obexftp
You'll also need to add yourself to the bluetooth group, logout, then
log back in.

You should maybe file a bug report on that if it fixes the problem.
In my case it kind of works - sits at 96%
The phone "remote obexftp directory" shows as blank in Dolphin.
I found that changing to another directory, then changing back - brought
up the phone in Dolphin.
The phone "remote obexftp directory" shows as blank in Dolphin.
The same weirdness happens sometimes when changing to sub-directories,
maybe I'm just not waiting long enough - but it sure seems like
"changing out of, and then back in to, directories" stops the "sit at
96% and show as blank" thing. (If that makes sense).
So something else is not 'quite' right.
I also noticed a segfault from the obex-data server (nothing useful in
logs). Data tranfers works - but slow (compared to USB, which is why I'd
never tried it).
NOTE: I've got a different phone (LG KM900), YMV.
Cheers
