hcsecd(8) will NOT actively connect to your phone. all hcsecd(8) does is 
answers hci pin code/link key request events.

one of the devices (either phone or pc) has to request authentication. 
many devices (such as phones) only ask for authentication when remote 
device is trying to use service.

first, make sure that hcsecd(8) is running

then do

# hccontrol -n ubt0hci write_authentication_enable 1

now try to do

% sdpcontrol -a MarkCell browse

you should get request for pin code in hcsecd(8). after the link key was 
  generated it will be stored in /var/db/hcsecd.keys file. next time the 
phone will request authentication this key will be used. note that you 
MUST run hcsecd(8) at all times.

now you can turn authentication off

# hccontrol -n ubt0hci write_authentication_enable 0

thanks,
max
