Needing help about bluetooth
-
@keneda Thanks any way.

@yadi What exactly happens when you try to connect to your BT devices? As mentioned, BT compatibility can be hit and miss and depends on the combination of the BT device and the UT device. For example, my JBL Go speaker makes the system unstable on my Nexus 5, IIRC, but works fine with my other UT devices. Also, avoid using BLE connection. Some devices can appear in BLE and normal (3.0,4.0,etc) connections, choose the latter.
Lastly, you can try forgetting the device on the bluetooth page and try to connect again and you can also try toggling off and on BT in UT.

@kugiigi Thanks for your reply. When I push the Connect botten nothing happens at all. I borrowed today even a Jbl Go2 speaker and tried, no success! Strange since it is mentioned in the forum as a compatible device.
By the way, I have no idea how to change between BLE and other alternatives.Viva linux

@yadi That's really weird. I would think at least one will connect successfully. Have you tried rebooting?
As for BLE, you don't usually need to do anything, both connections should be detected. -
@yadi Last time I tried mine persistent attempts where needed to connect to my Bose speaker and others it works straight away. I have mine running the halium dev channel but have not tried Bluetooth yet as it is not my daily driver. Why not try that, it's in System Settings with the others update channels.

@lakotaubp I have tried rebooting and even turning bluetooth on and off, no effect on the outcome.
If I do not get any better clue to solution I will go för the development version. Thanks. -
@yadi JFI Halium dev makes my OPO run better in general so worth trying anyway and there is the Firmware update too just incase you missed it. Anyway good luck with it and the wonders of Bluetooth on UT.
-
I have gone over now to Halium and unfotunately no success. Rebooting and turning on and off of BT does not help either.
-
@yadi My remaining question is how to update the firmware. Thanks

@yadi Read all the thread as there are in fact two files Firmware update and Radio that you need https://forums.ubports.com/topic/6193/article-needed-for-firmware-upgrade/10

@yadi Just as proof of the Bluetooth issues my OPO on halium dev with latest updates took 10 secs to find and connect with my Bose Soundlink mini. It's also picked up the TV from the other room. Go figure and I have yet to do Firmware update. Sorry.
-
@lakotaubp My PC does not recognise the OPO now. I get this message that there is no device or emulator. I remember even during the installation - in the begenning of that I had to choose the phone manually. I will give a try again during the coming days.
-
@lakotaubp After connecting my phone to the PC, I issued the command "adb reboot bootloader" . I get something like, There is not such a device.
Therefore I put the the phone in flashboot by holding volume down and on/off button. And then connected the phone to my PC.
I could now complete the first part of instructions that covers flashing the firmware update. But I am not able to do the same to the second file, Radio.
I have opened a terminal on the file Radio and issued the command "sudo fastboot flash static_nvbk.bin". -
@yadi I would ask in the original thread, there is the same question being asked. Not sure why it's not working.
-
@lakotaubp I get this "can not determine image filename for "static_nvbk.bin".
-
@yadi I have not tried yet so have no idea but if you open the terminal in the file holding the Radio file and adb into the device and reboot to bootloader and your command above does not work I am stuck @PhoenixLandPirat did the original instruction set maybe they can help.
-
@lakotaubp I tried it with the same result, unfortunately. I get this again - cannot determine image filename for 'static_nvbk.bin'
-
@lakotaubp To be more detailed, it says: unknown partition 'static_nvbk.bin'
error: cannot determine image filename for 'static_nvbk.bin'
