Ubuntu 16.04 Bluetooth issues. Tired of fixing.

talksick · 2018-10-27 21:38:50

I have been dealing with a lot of issues with Bluetooth on my Lenovo Y510P. I have tried many things which fix it temporarily but can't really get to the bottom of the issue why it keeps occurring again. Not able to connect anything to Bluetooth on my laptop sad

Here is some information to get started with:

# rfkill list all
0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no
1: ideapad_bluetooth: Bluetooth
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no

 # hcitool dev

 # bluetoothctl 
[bluetooth]# power on

[bluetooth]# list
[bluetooth]#

Wrong forum for Ubuntu 16.04. My bad. Please feel free to delete it.

Sorry for doing this, but this is not a BunsenLabs Basic Help & Support issue, so I'm moving it to "Help & Support (Other)".

We don't care what distro you use, we just care that you use Linux, hence this sub-forum.

Leaving the topic open, hopefully you'll get some useful feedback.

Have you tried BL yet?

What is the Bluetooth device as it may need firmware.
