I have a USB bluetooth dongle, mobile is SonyEricsson K608i, distro is Mandriva 2006.
First time I connected it worked fine - well, I had to launch gnome-phone-manager, select settings -> apply, and the phone worked fine as a bluetooth-modem.
Next bootup it doesn't work. I believe there's a problem with rfcomm, the channel is closed and refuses to connect.
In short, here's what I get:
Code:
[root@edgar ~]# rfcomm show
rfcomm0: 00:16:20:0A:72:C7 channel 1 closed (adress=phone)
[root@edgar ~]# rfcomm connect 0
Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused
[root@edgar ~]# hciconfig scan

A little longer explanation: First time: I didn't change any hcid/rfcomm config-file. Just put in the dongle, used gnome-phone-manager and then dialup with kppp. Closing connection with kppp and /dev/rfcomm0 was deleted, had to use gnome-phone-manager again as above.
When next time it didn't work, I searched the 'net for info and changed my config-files (see bottom): Phone connects, request for PIN in phone and computer. Phone adds computer ok. Using kppp, phone says: "edgar wants to connect to Internet. Accept?"
Yes -> phone says ok, computer says "connection refused".
When issuing "rfcomm connect 0 ", the phone asks for permission to access, I press "Yes", phone says "connection refused by the other unit". Terminal output:
"Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused "
The PIN in /etc/bluetooth/pin is correct (four digits only).
My config files:
Code:
# RFCOMM configuration file.
rfcomm0 {
bind yes;
device 00:16:20:0A:72:C7;
# channel 1;
comment "Sony Ericsson k608i"; }
# HCI daemon configuration file.
options {
autoinit yes;
security user;
pairing multi;
pin_helper /bin/bluepin;
dbus_pin_helper; }
device {
name "Sony %h-%d";
class 0x3e0100;
iscan enable; pscan enable;
lm accept;
lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park; }
And please forgive me for not googling more before asking - it
is a bit difficult without a working internet connection...
