Hi Everyone,
I'm having an issue configuring a USB Bluetooth dongle. I've got a 3.0.4 kernel and I'm using Bluez-utils.
My current state is I can see the dongle if I run a hciconfig, giving the output:
Code:

I can also use commands such as sdptool to browse the services offered by my phone, so it appears to be working ok.
The problem occurs when I try to change any parameters in the conf file (found in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf). For example I have tried to change the name and the passcode and then performed a stop and start to restart the service (using init.d/bluetooth stop/start) but no change occurs at all, it still has all the values as above. I've had a search to try and find where the default values are stored (using the default name as the search parameter) but can't find anything.
Does anybody have any ideas how to change parameters such as passkey/name?
Thanks for the help
p.s. I've been using
