[Bluez-users] A couple of bluetooth & Samsung D500 problems

[Bluez-users] A couple of bluetooth & Samsung D500 problems

[Florian Lindner]

Hello,
I've a Dell Inspiron 8600 with a builtin bluetooth module. I'm using a Linux 
2.6.11.5 on Gentoo.

First problem: I have a special key for switching WLAN and Bluetooth on/off. 
This key is on upon boot. But I need to swich it on and off before I can use 
bluetooth.

horus florian # modprobe bluetooth

syslog:

[ ok ]

syslog:

horus florian # hcitool scan
Device is not available: Success

switching bluetooth on and off again, syslog:


Jun 26 14:08:24 horus usb 2-2: USB disconnect, address 2

Jun 26 14:08:27 horus usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and

Jun 26 14:08:27 horus hcid[16296]: Starting security manager 0

now it works:

horus florian # hcitool scan

(Handy is a cellphone in German). The cellphone is a Samsung D-500

binding works too: (I've udev)

horus florian # rfcomm bind 0 00:12:47:39:41:84
[chmod to make it world readable and writeable]
horus / # ll /dev/rfcomm0
crw-rw-rw-  1 root root 216, 0  5. Jul 22:19 /dev/rfcomm0

When echoing ATZ on the bluetooth channel:

horus florian # echo "ATZ" > /dev/rfcomm0

My cellphone asks if I should make a Audio connection with the Laptop. If I 
say yes, nothing happens. Other commands like "ATDT06126500492" (my home 
number) gives the same result.

Now I try to use kmobiletools the cellphone asks for audio connection too. 
kmobiltools is not able to retrieve any data and on the konsole it displays:

>>>AT+CBC
<<<
ERROR
(returning error)
>>>AT+CPMS="MT"
<<<
ERROR
(returning error)
>>>AT+CPMS=MT
<<<
ERROR
(returning error)

all the time (the AT commands change).

I don't know where the problem is so I ask here as well.

If the problem is at kmobiletolls side: anyone know a good app to read out and 
send SMS via bluetooth?

Thanks for help,

Florian
