I boot my thinkpad, and the bluetooth chip is recognized. My phone has bluetooth turned on. I see my phone when I scan, but I can't seem to connect with it:

Is there something else I should be doing?

Seems that your PIN exchange doesn't work. What is your "security" setting in hcid.conf? Does appear a pin windows on the mobile display?

security auto;

Nicholas> Does appear a pin windows on the mobile display?

No, there was no change on my 6310i display.
But on my laptop display I got a dialog asking for the PIN. Where do I get this mysterious PIN?
I tried making one up. Then it worked!

Is this PIN stored somewhere? I see a file

/etc/bluetooth/pin

but it doesn't contain the PIN that I typed into the laptop dialog and the phone dialog.

No, the PIN is only needed for Pairing bluetooth devices. The /etc/bluetooth/pin specifies a lasting key you take for every connection. It is taken instead of the key you insert in the dialog-box for incoming connections.
The PIN you insert is stored nowhere, but the devices generate a link-key from the pin and other data, this stored in the /etc/bluetooth/link_key.
