SOLVED Disabling Bluetooth

[danielrs]

Is there a way to disable the bluetooth service? I tried turning it off under settings battery. That didn't work. Tried multiple Systemctl commands and they didn't work. Did that under sudo and sudo su. I'd use the kill switch but need the wifi. Anyone else had this issue or know a way around it. Just trying the save power.

@danielrs What device will help, is it PinePhone.

sudo service bluetooth stop
Conversely
sudo service bluetooth start is the easiest way with the Pinephone for me.

[danielrs]

yes pinephone with ubuntu touch.

Tried service, didn't seem to work.

Did you try with setting Bluetooth

AutoEnable=false

in:

/etc/bluetooth/main.conf

?

@magdesign This is a very old thread, and in the interim this issue has long been solved on the PinePhone.

I am marking this as solved and locking the thread.
