 Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2005 6:45 pm Post subject: bluetooth problems, connection timed out [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I have a Nokia 6230 mobile phone with bluetooth and wanted to get it to work with my gentoo desktop, syncing address books and transfering files and so on so I started to fix it all up.
I'm using the "CNet" USB dongle, it's found by hciconfig and all that:
| Code: |
> hciconfig -a
hci0: Type: USB
BD Address: 00:11:F6:03:A8:57 ACL MTU: 120:20 SCO MTU: 64:0
UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN AUTH ENCRYPT
RX bytes:13119 acl:1 sco:0 events:779 errors:0
TX bytes:6321 acl:36 sco:0 commands:366 errors:0
Features: 0xff 0xff 0x05 0x38 0x18 0x18 0x00 0x00
Packet type: DM1 DM3 DM5 DH1 DH3 DH5 HV1 HV2 HV3
Link policy: RSWITCH HOLD SNIFF PARK
Link mode: SLAVE ACCEPT
Name: 'zion'
Class: 0x3e0100
Service Classes: Networking, Rendering, Capturing, Object Transfer, Audio
Device Class: Computer, Uncategorized
HCI Ver: 1.2 (0x2) HCI Rev: 0x0 LMP Ver: 1.2 (0x2) LMP Subver: 0x757
Manufacturer: Silicon Wave (11)
|
So I activate Bluetooth on the phone, and try to find it with my computer:
| Code: |
> hcitool dev
Devices:
hci0 00:11:F6:03:A8:57
> hcitool inq
Inquiring ...
00:12:62:CA:1F:ED clock offset: 0x24fe class: 0x520204
> hcitool scan
Scanning ...
00:12:62:CA:1F:ED Jo
|
Woho, everything seems to be fine, my phone "Jo" seems to be found and I'm still happy.
Next thing I want to do is browse my phone:
| Code: |
> sdptool browse 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED
|
I dialog asking me to enter a PIN code pops up, I enter the pin code and click on the "Accept" button.
Now my phone asks me to accept the pairing and asks for a code too, I enter the same number and it says "Paired with zion!".
But in my terminal nothing happens, but until after some seconds i get the error message | Code: | | Failed to connect to SDP server on 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED: Connection timed out |
.
I've also tried to use the kdebluetooth pin tool (setting in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf) with no luck.
And I've tried browsing in konqueror, it finds my phone in bluetooth:/ but it doesn't find any items.
Kernel version: 2.6.13-gentoo-r3 and I'm running AMD64.
Does anyone have any idea what can be wrong?

| Can you post your hcid.conf? Looks like you are using security mode 3 (both auth and encypt enabled). If this is the case the both devices must be running in this mode and I doubt your phone is. Comment the two lines in your hcid.conf and restart bluetooth. |

The difference between having both of them commented, uncommented, partly commented:
All inactive: No pin code questions, just timed out
Both active: Pin code questions, successfully pairing (atleast my phone tells me that), but timed out.
Auth active: same as both
Encrypt active: same again
Here comes my hcid.conf:
| Code: | #
# HCI daemon configuration file.
#
# $Id: hcid.conf,v 1.7 2004/12/13 14:16:03 holtmann Exp $

}

Hey there,
In your hcid.conf, try this:
| Code: |
# Local device class
#class 0x3e0100;
class 0x100100;
|
I got that from these forums. I use bluetooth logitech kb/mouse and a nokia cell.
regards,
scoon

Hey there,
Any info in dmesg ? Have you tried strace ? What about bluez.org. Maybe you need those patches for it to work. In fact, that maybe something to look into. I have the same phone as you and can send files back and forth with no problems.
regards,
scoon

Dmesg and trace doesn't give any answers I'm afraid, but I will try new kernel and patches.
Thanks for the tips everyone, I'll get back with more comments when I've tried the patches.. |

I can browse and transfer files now, yipiee! Thanks for the help!
I can't tell if it was the kernel upgrade or the patch from bluez.org, but after booting 2.6.14+the patch it works fairly good.
Still some problems though, it doesn't seem to remember being paired for more than one "session", like this:
| Code: | > rfcomm connect 0 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED
Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Permission denied
> rfcomm connect 0 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED
Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Too many levels of symbolic links
> rfcomm connect 0 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED
Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Too many levels of symbolic links
> rfcomm connect 0 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED
Connected /dev/rfcomm0 to 00:12:62:CA:1F:ED on channel 1
Press CTRL-C for hangup |
And it asks for pin codes and stuff before "Connected /dev....". These commands are executed within seconds and the pairing is still active on the phone, but this is not a big problem for now. |

Hey there,
Glad you got it this far. I don't have an rfcomm0 device so maybe it has something to do w/ hotplug or dbus ?
regards,
scoon

| /dev/rfcomm0 is created when "rfcomm connect 0 [address]" is run, and removed when terminated, like a temporary connection to the phone through the device. |
