 Posted: Thu Apr 02, 2015 6:02 am Post subject: Bluetooth fails to connect even when paired successfully |
 |
|
I have my device (a phone) successfully paired in bluetoothctl and trusted.
I have followed the simple steps at: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Bluetooth#BlueZ_5
I finally issue a connect command, connecting to its MAC address, and I get just a simple generic error:
"failed to connect org.bluez.error.failed"
There doesn't appear to be any verbose or debug option for bluetoothctl. Nor is there any information in dmesg or anything else I can use. I have everything related to bluetooth enabled in the kernel and I doubt it is a kernel issue since bluetooth works in other ways (e.g. using blueman I can send a file to my phone). |

I'm having the exact same problem in gentoo (at least the exact same symptoms). Very frustrating. |

| I have the same issue. Is there really no solution, for almost a year? |
