jaafar | Anyone send files to your system via Bluetooth from Android? | 05:20 |
jaafar | It's been years but it never seems to work | 05:21 |
DarinMiller | jaafar: bluetooth files transfer works fine here (kubuntu 17.10...) | 05:29 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: thanks so much for responding... Can you walk me through it? Android displays a PIN, kubuntu does not and seems to think it is connected. Android shows failure message. | 05:31 |
jaafar | I'm also 17.10 | 05:31 |
DarinMiller | Clickon the bt icon near the clock. | 05:32 |
jaafar | okay | 05:32 |
DarinMiller | Then click on settings icon in the upper right of the popup window... | 05:32 |
jaafar | okay, I've seen that one a lot lately :) | 05:33 |
jaafar | it's up | 05:33 |
jaafar | My Android will appear here as "connected" | 05:33 |
jaafar | though Android itself thinks it failed | 05:33 |
DarinMiller | sry if I am repeating what you have tried many times... but just covering the bases... | 05:33 |
jaafar | at the moment, not present. What's next? | 05:33 |
jaafar | no worries at all, makes sense | 05:34 |
DarinMiller | On the Adapters tab, ensure the Powered box is checked and set visibility to Always Visible (for now). | 05:35 |
DarinMiller | On the Advanced Setting tab, ensure Enable Bluetooth integration is checked. | 05:35 |
jaafar | all as specified | 05:36 |
DarinMiller | Ok, back on the Devices tab, click the plus [+] button. | 05:37 |
* DarinMiller funny, I can see my neighbors soundbar.... I should play some holiday music for him.... | 05:38 | |
jaafar | :) | 05:38 |
jaafar | OK my Android device is visible | 05:38 |
DarinMiller | on your phone, tap and hold the bt icon to bring up the bt connections | 05:39 |
DarinMiller | On the PC screen, select your phone and click the next button. | 05:39 |
jaafar | hm, I have the "bluetooth settings" open, if that's what you mean | 05:39 |
jaafar | on Android | 05:40 |
jaafar | And on my PC I have a "Connect" but no "Next" | 05:40 |
DarinMiller | Does the phone show the spinning search option somewhere on the screen? | 05:40 |
jaafar | spinning search option... no | 05:41 |
jaafar | it does list my PC though | 05:41 |
jaafar | This is the "bluetooth settings" menu, I guess, which does list visible bt devices | 05:41 |
DarinMiller | Find the bt screen on the phone where you have the scan option for paring devices... | 05:41 |
jaafar | I know if I click on my PC name it will attempt to connect | 05:41 |
jaafar | which fails | 05:41 |
jaafar | DarinMiller this screen does scan when I first bring it up | 05:42 |
jaafar | Is it enough that it shows my PC name or should I look for some other menu? | 05:42 |
DarinMiller | I only iniate connect from the PC side, and confirm on the phone side. | 05:42 |
jaafar | because it's there | 05:42 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: shall I try to initiate from the PC side now? | 05:42 |
jaafar | by clicking "Connect" | 05:42 |
DarinMiller | yes. | 05:42 |
jaafar | OK that causes my Android to display a PIN | 05:43 |
jaafar | shall I click "pair" on Android? | 05:43 |
DarinMiller | yes, accept on the phone... | 05:43 |
jaafar | Android displays "pairing" | 05:43 |
DarinMiller | then confirm on the pc side. | 05:44 |
jaafar | when you say "confirm" on the PC side, I'm not sure what you mean | 05:44 |
jaafar | it seems to think it is connected | 05:44 |
jaafar | no PIN was displayed on the PC | 05:44 |
DarinMiller | On mine, I confirm the code on the phone, then the PC wizard want confimation that the pin was correct. | 05:45 |
jaafar | OK now Android says "Couldn't pair with xxx because of an incorrect PIN or passkey" | 05:45 |
jaafar | which is what usually happens | 05:45 |
jaafar | I will try the process again without pausing | 05:45 |
DarinMiller | Ensure to delete your device from the list and try again. | 05:45 |
jaafar | OK will try that | 05:46 |
DarinMiller | Yes, time windows are very small. Do not let your phone screen blank out or you may miss the window. | 05:46 |
jaafar | OK I have removed Android from the list of known devices and will try again | 05:46 |
DarinMiller | very good. | 05:46 |
jaafar | Same problem | 05:47 |
jaafar | Android displays PIN, I say connect, long pause, error message from Android | 05:47 |
DarinMiller | OK, I have the following BT packages installed: | 05:48 |
jaafar | maybe I need dpkg-reconfigure :) | 05:48 |
DarinMiller | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26161809/ | 05:48 |
DarinMiller | check your list with this command: apt list *blue* | grep installed | 05:49 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: I checked it by attempting to install all of those :) no changes made | 05:51 |
jaafar | so I think they must be there | 05:51 |
jaafar | actually I have a lot more bluez modules than you do | 05:52 |
DarinMiller | Have you connected any other bt devices such as a speaker? | 05:52 |
jaafar | I believe so | 05:52 |
jaafar | btw this is a problem I've seen for years | 05:53 |
DarinMiller | How many device connection options are listed on the PC? | 05:53 |
jaafar | something like 20+ | 05:53 |
jaafar | including somebody's MacBook Pro | 05:53 |
mozammel | https://pastebin.com/Ef1kjWxP Kmail keep crahing, any idea how to fix it ? | 05:53 |
jaafar | and a bunch of MAC addresses | 05:53 |
DarinMiller | I have had BT issues with my PC's over the years, but in the last year, most of the BT issues have been fixed.. | 05:53 |
jaafar | I haven't had any luck sending files from my Android devices... several generations of them, and many versions of kubuntu | 05:54 |
DarinMiller | What verion of Android? | 05:54 |
jaafar | I just assumed it doesn't work | 05:54 |
jaafar | 7.1.2 | 05:55 |
jaafar | but this has been true for some time | 05:55 |
jaafar | starting with a Samsung Infuse maybe 3, 4 years ago | 05:55 |
DarinMiller | I am running 7.0 here. | 05:55 |
DarinMiller | S7. | 05:55 |
jaafar | what could explain Kubuntu failing to display the PIN dialog? | 05:55 |
jaafar | that's what it's supposed to do, right? | 05:56 |
DarinMiller | mozammel: Sry, I don't use kmail, so I can't help much. | 05:56 |
DarinMiller | just a sec, I will delete mine again, and let you know.. | 05:56 |
DarinMiller | OK the pin popped up on the PC screen and on the phone at the same time. I confirmed on the phone 1st, then on the PC and everything worked fine. | 05:58 |
DarinMiller | Testing on 2nd PC.... | 05:58 |
DarinMiller | 2nd PC connected and paired just fine. By chance is your phone paired to a set of headphones another device in the house? | 05:59 |
jaafar | nope | 06:00 |
DarinMiller | If so, disconnect that device and start the connection process again. Current BT devices can only connect to one device at a time. | 06:00 |
jaafar | I am going to test with a bluetooth speaker now | 06:01 |
DarinMiller | run this command: sudo lshw > t.txt && kate t.txt & | 06:02 |
DarinMiller | then in kate search for "blue" | 06:02 |
DarinMiller | what brand of BT adapter is listed? | 06:03 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: sorry should I try the speaker or no... | 06:03 |
jaafar | you had asked previously | 06:03 |
DarinMiller | yes, try the speaker | 06:04 |
DarinMiller | also break up the previous command: sudo lshw > t.txt | 06:04 |
DarinMiller | then: kate t.txt | 06:04 |
DarinMiller | Does the speaker work with either PC or the phone? | 06:08 |
jaafar | OK speaker works with PC | 06:09 |
jaafar | sorry that took a bit of audio configuration | 06:09 |
DarinMiller | np. :) | 06:09 |
jaafar | it is paired and can output audio from Spotify | 06:09 |
jaafar | I will switch to your other question now | 06:09 |
DarinMiller | very good. | 06:10 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: I assume this is the one that interests you: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26161874/ | 06:11 |
jaafar | Android can pair with the speaker too | 06:13 |
DarinMiller | that adapter is exactly what I have in the 2nd PC I tested. | 06:15 |
jaafar | I presume some software issue | 06:16 |
jaafar | It's like some part of the negotiation is busted | 06:17 |
DarinMiller | On the PC side, try clearning all BT devices from the list. on the phone side, clear the PC if its listed. Then try again. | 06:17 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: what do you think about me removing and reinstalling some packages | 06:17 |
jaafar | or some other kind of reconfiguration? | 06:17 |
jaafar | or deleting files out of my ~/.config or ~/.kde | 06:17 |
jaafar | etc. | 06:17 |
jaafar | I have been upgrading for a long time instead of clean installing | 06:18 |
DarinMiller | you could use the sudo apt purge <package> | 06:18 |
DarinMiller | then reinstall. | 06:18 |
DarinMiller | purge should clear any of the config files. | 06:18 |
jaafar | Here's the weird thing: the PC side thinks it is connected | 06:20 |
jaafar | despite never displaying the PIN or whatever | 06:20 |
jaafar | it's the Android side that thinks it failed | 06:20 |
jaafar | blowing away all packages matching *blue* :) | 06:21 |
jaafar | A system restart is necessary | 06:21 |
jaafar | wish me luck | 06:22 |
DarinMiller | my desktop system has been upgraded several times (I think since 15.04 days, but not exactly sure). My desktop has Asus BT card and until this last year, I was having similar problems as yours. | 06:23 |
DarinMiller | But now, all my BT devices are working great. I connect to speakers, receiver and phones | 06:23 |
jaafar | oh wow, with the PIN issue? | 06:24 |
jaafar | I mean, did Android pause and then fail with a PIN-related error? | 06:25 |
DarinMiller | yes, seems the hookup would almost work then fail at the last step. | 06:25 |
jaafar | Well, hopefully the master purge will work :) | 06:26 |
jaafar | back in 5 | 06:26 |
DarinMiller | Ensure pulseaudio-module-bluetooth is re-installed as my intel system would not connect to speakers without it (even on 17.10) | 06:26 |
DarinMiller | cu in 5 | 06:27 |
DarinMiller | jaafar: your back! whew...! | 06:28 |
DarinMiller | you're^ | 06:29 |
jaafar | BOOYAH | 06:31 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: yeah the grand purge did it | 06:31 |
jaafar | All working as you described now | 06:32 |
DarinMiller | good to know! | 06:32 |
jaafar | Perhaps the "Next" vs "Connect" should have been a sign | 06:32 |
jaafar | Now I have "Next" where before I had "Connect" | 06:32 |
DarinMiller | yes, I was confused by the "connect" button as mine said next. | 06:33 |
DarinMiller | Did you send a file? It should work now. | 06:33 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: very much appreciate your help | 06:33 |
jaafar | yep, it worked :) | 06:33 |
DarinMiller | awesome. You actually solved the problem. I was just the rubber ducky... :) | 06:34 |
=== himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf | ||
jaafar | that has been an irritant for so long | 06:34 |
jaafar | DarinMiller: but I would not have known that it "should" work without your information | 06:34 |
jaafar | I had assumed it was just broken and nobody had time to fix it | 06:34 |
jaafar | Or was aware, etc. | 06:34 |
jaafar | OK one more for you but very trivial! | 06:35 |
DarinMiller | glad I could help. | 06:35 |
jaafar | I have to select "reboot" (or powerdown, etc.) twice every time | 06:35 |
DarinMiller | Ok, its getting late... | 06:35 |
jaafar | do you observe that? | 06:35 |
jaafar | there is a fine workaround, I am just curious | 06:35 |
jaafar | K menu, Leave, Reboot | 06:36 |
jaafar | nothing happens | 06:36 |
jaafar | K menu, Leave, Reboot | 06:36 |
jaafar | it reboots | 06:36 |
DarinMiller | oh, I am aware of the issue, but I do not know the fix. I suspect it's possibly a package like your bluetooth, but I have not clue. | 06:36 |
jaafar | haha so it is known :) | 06:36 |
jaafar | thanks DarinMiller enjoy your well-deserved rest and thanks for helping out in the channel | 06:37 |
DarinMiller | in sys setting, do you have the restart prompt enabled? (checking sys settting location, just a sec...) | 06:37 |
jaafar | oh man, listen, don't stay up on my account I was just wondering about that | 06:38 |
DarinMiller | it just take a sec... sys setting -> Startup and Shutdown | 06:39 |
DarinMiller | Desktop session tab, turn off Confirm logout and see if that fixed the issue. | 06:39 |
jaafar | OK | 06:40 |
jaafar | that will cause me to vanish | 06:40 |
jaafar | so I will try it later :) | 06:40 |
DarinMiller | yes. | 06:40 |
jaafar | appreciate the tip | 06:40 |
DarinMiller | ok, gn | 06:40 |
jaafar | gn to you too | 06:40 |
hateball | jaafar: do you have Steam running? | 06:45 |
hateball | As that will halt shutdowns | 06:45 |
hateball | There are other apps as well | 06:45 |
IrcsomeBot | <Max> (Photo, 1280x1135) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/IOEHcmoB/file_3797.jpg | 06:56 |
jaafar | hateball: nope. Anyway it does work, the second time... | 06:57 |
* jaafar should install Steam | 06:57 | |

[Relic] | Thinking of installing 17.04(usb already made) and then dist upgrading to 17.10. Any forseeable problems with that or should I make a new 17.10 and just install that? | 16:51 |
bings[m] | The latter, every time. Regardless of what you're doing, less chance of problems just to install what version you want. | 17:00 |
