Title:
  can't pair bluetooth keyboard, phone doesn't show code.

Status in indicator-bluetooth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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.
