Bluetooth rpi4 dead after update/upgrade
-
@mitu no, I even try to enable it and the service fails with "service bluetooth start" resulting in the skipped message.
The return from rfkill list:
0: phy0: wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: noAnd only that.
Tks
-
What does
systemctl status hciuartsays ?
The Bluetooth phy is not showing up in therfkilllisting, so it looks like the Bluetooth is not enabled. -

Code=exited, status=1/FAILURE

Can you post the entire output from the
systemctlcommand ? -
@mitu here it is:

@rogeriol said in Bluetooth rpi4 dead after update/upgrade:
systemctl status hciuart
I was referring to the output from the command above.

I don't see any other reports (here or in the RPI forums) about a Bluetooth issue. I don't think the Bluetooth related packages have any issues, they haven't been updated in a long time.
Can you post your/boot/config.txt? -
hi @mitu , config.txt below

@rogeriol Please use an external pastebin service or wrap logs in three backticks ``` (the forum uses markdown - https://www.markdownguide.org/)
I edited your posts to fix this
-
@mitu
nothing much relevant in config.txt, right?I think I'll give up and create a new image. Should I get the released one or one of the recent builds?
Thanks for your help.
-
The
config.txtis ok, just wanted to check whether BT was inadvertently disabled or some other UART was enabled that may have switched the BT HCI port.Are you using a proper power supply ? Things get wonky with SBCs if the power supply is not providing sufficient power or with a stable voltage/amperage.
Can you check if you're using the latest versions for the Bluetooth packages ? Run
dpkg -l | grep -e bluetooth -e bluezand post the output.
-
@mitu
my power supply seems ok, never shown the bolt icon and I even hooked an external HD to copy games with no problems.
Just to be sure I booted the RPI4 with a Samsung Fastcharge USBC, but no changes in BT status.Below the result from dpkg command:
ii bluetooth 5.50-1.2~deb10u2+rpt1 all Bluetooth support (metapackage) ii bluez 5.50-1.2~deb10u2+rpt1 armhf Bluetooth tools and daemons ii bluez-firmware 1.2-4+rpt8 all Firmware for Bluetooth devices ii bluez-tools 2.0~20170911.0.7cb788c-2 armhf Set of tools to manage Bluetooth devices for linux ii pi-bluetooth 0.1.18 all Raspberry Pi 3 bluetooth -
Looking at the
dpkgoutput, looks like you have the latest versions for the Bluetooth related packages - so no issue here.
