I'm trying to "KDE connect" my Fedora-20/KDE laptop and my Samsung Galaxy S2 phone (Android version 4.1.2). I've followed the instructions in http://xmodulo.com/2014/01/integrate-android-kde-linux-desktop.html meticulously. Every thing works fine, but at the final step (Pairing) ------------------------------- Launch KDE Connect on Android. You should see the hostname of your KDE desktop listed under "Not paired devices". ------------------------------- I do not see my desktop, or anything else, listed.
Wireshark shows that the phone sends an identifying packet, but I don't see any evidence that the laptop sends anything.
I wonder if anyone has had better luck?

Typically you have to do none of that.
On a recent system, I did following.
yum install kde-connect systemctl disable firewalld
You might want to stop firewalld and see if it works and if it does it is your choice to judicially disable it or open the ports for kde-connect.

Thanks for your suggestion.
I'm actually running shorewall. As far as I can see, with my settings any communication between hosts on my local WiFi network should be allowed. But in any case I tried "sudo shorewall clear", and this did not help.
Incidentally, after saying "kbuildsycoca4 -noincremental" I got the following warnings ------------------------------- [tim@rose Android]$ kbuildsycoca4 -noincremental kbuildsycoca4 running... kbuildsycoca4(20981)/kdecore (services) KServicePrivate::init: The desktop entry file "/usr/share/applications/LabPlot.desktop" has Type= "Application" but also has a X-KDE-Library key. This works for now, but makes user-preference handling difficult, so support for this might be removed at some point. Consider splitting it into two desktop files. kbuildsycoca4(20981) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry: List entry Keywords in "/usr/share/applications/kde/kresources.desktop" is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon). kbuildsycoca4(20981)/kdecore (services) KServicePrivate::init: The desktop entry file "/usr/share/applications/kde/kresources.desktop" has Type= "Application" but also has a X-KDE-Library key.
