[Bug 1368365] Re: Bluetooth pairing not working on all devices

 

I am no longer using Nexus 4. I have switched to a Pro 5. The problem
there is the noise that comes with using the phone with a bluetooth
headset or in-car system, according to this bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1590844.

Title:
  Bluetooth pairing not working on all devices

Status in indicator-bluetooth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Nexus 4 with MultiROM, utopic r235

  There ar, a few bluetooth devices that still don't work together with
  Ubuntu Touch. These devices work perfectly well when booting the phone
  as Android. The devices that fails to connect for me are BlueAnt
  Supertooth 3
  (http://www.myblueant.com/shop/us/products/st3.php#related) and My
  Volvo car bluetooth system, both with Bluetooth version 2.0
  specifications.

  With BlueAnt Ubuntu can discover the unit and attempts to connect,
  opening a pairing dialogue with the digits "0000". Confirming the pin
  code (which is correct) doesn't do anything, my Ubuntu phone is not
  recognized by BlueAnt and won't show as a connected device in the
  phone's bluetooth settings, but shows up under "Connect other device
  followed by ..." The bluetooth indicator, however, shows as connected.

  With My Volvo Car, pairing works differently. The bluetooth system in
  the car searches for devices and shows "Nexus 4" and then prompts me
  to connect with a 4-digit pin code, but the Ubuntu phone doesn't react
  at all and after a while the car system says that it failed to
  connect.

  Oh, adding to that, the indicator remains "lit" even after turning
  BlueAnt off and toggling Bluetooth off/on in the phone settings.
