Public bug reported:

1) Device: Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition
     OS: Ubuntu 15.04 (r68) - armhf (20150724-020304)
2) Bluez version 4.101-0ubuntu25
     indicator-bluetooth version 0.0.6+14.10.20141006-0ubuntu1

3) When trying to connect a bluetooth keyboard (SilverCrest SBT 3.0 A1), pairing doesn't follow correct procedure.
On other devices (Android 5.1.1 on Nexus 10; Ubuntu 15.04 on BTO laptop) a 6 digit number is displayed, which needs to be typed on the Bluetooth keyboard, followed by pressing [Enter].

4) On Ubuntu touch, a dialogue appears asking to enter a 4 digit PIN on
the phone. Default is '0000' and at first the phone says the device is
connected, but the phone does not respond to any input from the
keyboard. After some time the phone indicates the device is not
connected.

All of this is similarly described in this askubuntu article:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/625533/how-to-pair-external-bluetooth-
keyboard-to-ubuntu-touch-bq-phone, which has not received any answers as
of yet.

I am willing to follow instructions and report back results. i have adb
shell installed on my laptop, and Terminal app installed on the phone.
Developer mode is on.
