[Bluez-users] Connection times out after a while

[Bluez-users] Connection times out after a while

[Jan Schermer]

Hi,

I can pair the devices fine, RFCOMM opens connection and I can issue AT
commands to my mobile phone via minicom. However at some point (few
seconds from the opening of connection) the communication just hangs and
I have to reconnect the device and reload hci_usb driver for another
connection to be initiated (otherwise, all connections time out (I see
the bt communication icon on my phone though).

I am using Billionton USB dongle and SonyEricsson T610, I also tried
with XDA2 but the same problem occurs.

If I use the dongle and phone under VMWARE, everything works fine - so
it must be something in the driver or my setup, but I have used it in
the past and I'm almost sure that my setup is fine.

I have tried kernels 2.6.5, 2.6.5-love[1-3], 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 without
success. I even patched the third bluetooth patch in the kernel with no
effect.

Any way I can debug this? Has anyone had the same problems like me?

Thx a lot

Jan

what shows "hciconfig -a"?

Is this Windows or Linux in your VMware session?

We need a binary (use -w as root) hcidump of the connection.
