[Bluez-users] ISSC Bluetooth dongle + GPS receiver problem

Hello All,

I am testing the ISSC Bluetooth dongle on my ARM platform. I am using Linux 2.6.16 kernel and bluez-utils 3.9. I can connect to a Bluetooth headphone. However, if I connect the USB dongle to a Bluetooth GPS receiver, the connection is broken sometimes. I performed the below steps:

1. Insert the ISSC USB dongle to USB port
2. run command "hciconfig hci0 up"
3. run command "hcitool scan"
4. the dongle find the GPS receiver and output the below message: 
Scanning ...
        00:0B:0D:76:14:FE       BT-GPS
5. run command "rfcomm bind rfcomm0 00:0B:0D:76:14:FE"
6. run command "cat /dev/rfcomm0"

I can get the gps information like that: 
$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,*1E

$GPRMC,034415.781,V,,,,,,,160407,,,N*40

$GPGGA,034416.769,,,,,0,00,,,M,0.0,M,,0000*5A

$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,*1E

However, the connection is broken after a random time. If I run the hcidump -x command on another terminal, the error message is:

It seems that the ISSC BT dongle is incompatible with BlueZ, anyone encounters the same issue?

Thanks !

actually the ISSC dongle is broken and from my experience a really badly
implemented Bluetooth chip. You are really better of if you get yourself
a CSR BlueCore4 based dongle.
