[Bug 1400079] Re: Bluetooth not working on Asus X751LA

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1237296 ***

** Description changed:

- This bug is associated with launchpad's question #257206. Since the
- question did not receive any useful answer, I thought to scale up the
- issue.
+ The default bluetooth app is not able to activate the bluetooth. I installed blueman, and through it I could switch on the bluetooth (at least it says it is on). However when I do a search it cannot detect any remote device. Although I set the device as visible, it doesn't show up when scanning with another bluetooth device. Hcitool seems to detect the local device:
+ hcitool dev
+ Devices:
+  hci0	54:27:1E:51:63:DE
  
- In order to be 100% sure, since I made several tests for another problem
- I have with the touchpad, I reinstalled entirely the whole system, so
- now I'm running a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 on the mentioned
- notebook.
- 
- The Notebook is equipped with a Qualcomm Atheros, the wifi is working fine - at least so it appears to me.
- The bluetooth app is not able to activate the bluetooth.
- I installed blueman, and through it I could switch on the bluetooth (at least it says it is on); however when I do a search. it cannot detect any remote device. Moreover, although I set the device as visible, it does not show up on other devices scanner.
- Hcitool seems to detect the local device:
- 
- $ hcitool dev
- Devices:
- 	hci0	54:27:1E:51:63:DE
- 
- However it does not detect remote devices:
- 
- $ sudo hcitool scan
+ However, it does not detect remote devices (this was after I set my phone as discoverable):
+ sudo hcitool scan
  Scanning ...
