Plugable USB-BT4LE Bluetooth 4.0 USB Adapter

Post by promeneur »

my bluetooth dongle is used off !

i replace it by mark : Plugable , model : USB-BT4LE Bluetooth 4.0 USB Adapter , 15 €

http://www.amazon.fr/Plugable-Adaptateu ... s=plugable


features : Bt 4.0 , class 2 (10 m) , chipset ID 0a5c:21e8 Broadcom Corp. , Broadcom BCM20702

it claims that it is compliant with linux see http://plugable.com/products/usb-bt4le

my experiment :

mandriva 2010.3 i686 , kernel 3.5.7 , kde 4.8.4 , bluedevil 1.3 , bluez 4.101 , obex-data-server 0.46 , openobex 1.6

during boot the dongle is activated <=> the light is switched on

during kde session the dongle is not detected

i must as root execute "bluetoothd stop" then bluedevil detects it

with other system if "bluetooth stop" has no effect try "hciconfig hci0 down" then "hciconfig hci0 up"

when i unactive bluetooth with bluedevil then the dongle stays active

i check
with my pc with bluez 401 compliant to bt 2
with smartphone with android 4.2.2 , bt 3.0 and "astro bluetooth module" app to get obex-ftp

- pairing : ok
- send file to pc : ok
- send file to smartphone fail : it's an old pb due to soft bluedevil , bluez , other ?
- with dolphin explore , delete file , copy from pc and from smartphone : ok

hélas android 4.2.2 does not get bluetooth syncml

is there anybody knowing android 4.3 bluetooth features ? google claims it is compliant with bluetooth 4.0 but with what features ?
