  Broadcom bluetooth chips require a tool called patchram uploader [1]

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Ian Mackinnon]

I have a Dell/Broadcom 413c:8143 device and the patchram is apparently
still not being applied for me in Ubuntu 20.04, kernel
`5.4.0-70-generic`.

I see that the following struct was added in early 2017:

/* Dell Computer - Broadcom based  */
{ USB_VENDOR_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(0x413c, 0xff, 0x01, 0x01),
  .driver_info = BTUSB_BCM_PATCHRAM },

Commit diffs:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/fdfddc601713d4ed564b0bd25b29415bd622020a

https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-
zesty.git/diff/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c?h=Ubuntu-4.10.0-14.16=9f8d1a6f221b33b294032c15e4739a8a9076aaec

However, an earlier struct some ten items above appears to be blocking
the addition from taking effect:

{ USB_DEVICE(0x413c, 0x8197) },

With the stock Ubuntu module HSP/HFP does not work for me, but if I
remove the `USB_DEVICE` item, leaving the
`USB_VENDOR_AND_INTERFACE_INFO` item, and recompile, the patchram is
applied and HSP/HFP works.

Might it be necessary to remove the previous `USB_DEVICE` item from the
module source?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Jesse Sung]

@xnor:

Naming rule of the firmware has been changed for some historical
reasons...

* In 14.04, it is "/lib/firmware/brcm/fw-_.hcd". ( 
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/trusty/tree/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c#n1410
 )
* In 16.04, it is "/lib/firmware/brcm/.hcd". ( 
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/xenial/tree/drivers/bluetooth/btbcm.c#n323
 )
* In 18.04, it is either "/lib/firmware/brcm/.hcd" or 
"/lib/firmware/brcm/--.hcd". ( 
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/bionic/tree/drivers/bluetooth/btbcm.c#n478
 and 
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/bionic/tree/drivers/bluetooth/btbcm.c#n499
 )

Unfortunately because of its incompatible license, we're not able to
include the firmware in linux-firmware package. Even in the linux-
firmware upstream, there are only a very small amount of such bluebooth
firmware files and those should already be included in 18.04 linux-
firmware package. (
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-
firmware.git/tree/brcm )

If it used to work on 14.04 but stops working after upgrade, you may
already have "/lib/firmware/brcm/fw-_.hcd" in your 14.04
installation (maybe either from a preload Ubuntu system or it was
downloaded from somewhere). Filename of the firmware needs to be changed
after upgrade so that driver can find it. In this case:

$ sudo mv /lib/firmware/brcm/fw-0a5c_21e6.hcd
/lib/firmware/brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e6.hcd

If you wiped the whole system before installing 18.04, you have to find
the file elsewhere though.

If you are not sure what the correct hcd filename is, please check the
output of dmesg and you'll see the driver complaining about missing
firmware.

$ dmesg

-

For converting the hex formatted firmware to hcd, hex2hcd is included in
newer bluez. In 18.04, simply install bluez then you'll have the tool:

$ sudo apt-get install bluez

Still you can use dmesg to determine the hcd filename to use:

$ dmesg

You'll have to find the hex firmware in Windows driver provided by
laptop vendors, then convert it and place the output to the right place.
For example:

$ sudo hex2hcd -o /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e6.hcd



Hope this helps.

[You-Sheng Yang]

@xor, there is no such file in linux-firmware/trusty:
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-
firmware/tree/brcm?h=trusty . Could you have a check where does that
file come from?

  $ dpkg -S /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM20702A1*

This has to be executed on a trusty installation.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[xor]

Can an admin please flag this as affecting Ubuntu version Bionic as
well?

My kernel indeed complains "Patch brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e6.hcd not
found" on Bionic.

Also, Bluetooth USED TO work on this machine on 14.04, 18.04 (Bionic) broke it.
So if 14.04 shipped the file apparently then why can't 18.04 just do the same?

[Alecz20]

UPDATE: MY FIX

After some digging, I decided to download the latest Bluetooth Driver
from Lenovo and extracted the firmware from it.

I forked Winterheart's repository and patched the firmware and it works for me.
Here is the link if anyone needs:

UPDATE:

If I remove the /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21f3.hcd and I reboot
I get the "flaky" Bluetooth back. Sometimes I need to suspend/resume to
get it back.

Was hoping this firmware would fix the issue, but instead it makes it
worse.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Alecz20]

I have same issue as @painterengr

I had the problem where the Bluetooth mouse would work at first, but
then suddenly: "Bluetooh Disabled".

I checked dmesg and found this:

Bluetooth: hci0: Broadcom Bluetooth Device
[5.279438] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM20702A1 (001.002.014) build 1761
[5.281325] bluetooth hci0: Direct firmware load for 
brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21f3.hcd failed with error -2
[5.281333] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: Patch brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21f3.hcd not 
found

Which led me to this bug reports and and I quickly found this:
https://github.com/winterheart/broadcom-bt-firmware/blob/master/brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21f3.hcd
Which I copied over to /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21f3.hcd

After I rebooted the machine, the Bluetooh icon was completely gone from
the GUI and in settings it says "Bluetooh disabled"

So using that firmware completely botched Bluetooth on my system.

@hanasaki-ubuntu Looks like Broadcom is retiring from this chipset
business. I´ve seen a bug in Redhat that they are talking about this
kind of problems (on a Dell xps 13 that has a Broadcom chipset):

[hanasaki]

What is the license issue?  Is there a URL to the actual license?  Some
way to contact who put the license in place to request a change allowing
resolution of this?

BTW, I tried the manual download.  It finds my device now however will
not pair.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[rich painter]

no secure boot.
the lenovo t530 is configured for UEFI booting and it works fine.

i dont use unity I hate it. I have always used gnome classic (3).
before the attempt to fix the bluetooth yesterday the bluetooth menu from
the wifi icon on the upper right task bar on Ubuntu 14 gnome 3 at least
showed bluetooth.

i could also start the applications->systems settings-> bluetooth and get
the gnome app and it would at least say there were previous pairing listed
on the left (even tho they would not allow data to be exchanged).

now in that left list it just says "bluetooth is disabled".

I go thru the usual rfkill stuff and all seems OK. the "new driver from
github" reports it is good now in dmesg.

but I cant find any way to "enable"

any ideas?

thanks
rich

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[rich painter]

I did this morning. unfortunately some strange side effect has completely
disabled the bluetooth. I dont even see the Ubuntu bluetooth item on the
wifi drop down menu at the upper right on the Gnome desktop. I have tried
everything to "enable" bluetooth but to no avail.

it seems the problem is now worse.

any ideas?

thanks
rich

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[rich painter]

Unfortunately this is a linux system and not a windows system. The
references to the procedures to "obtain the windows version file and
convert it to linux" does not work and the links are no good.

I don't understand your reply for a "413c" or "x/y/z". The chip the T530
has is 20702A1. I followed your link to 1166113 but could not find any
link to a firmware file.

How does this help us?

I have filed a report with Lenovo forums here
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Linux-Discussion/T530-Ubuntu-14-04-3-LTS-
Broadcom-Bluetooth-BCM20702A1-doesn-t/td-p/3662951

but history has shown Lenovo has not been responsive...

Thanks for trying but not any help.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Jesse Sung]

@painterengr, it's a firmware issue instead of a driver one. The driver
tried to load /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e6.hcd and it failed
to find the file. The .hcd/.hex file can't be included in a distribution
due to license issue (it cannot be re-distributed). One way to make it
work is to copy the firmware from windows driver. The other is to boot
to windows, let windows driver load the firmware, and then reboot to
linux.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[rich painter]

My Lenovo T530 Bluetooth does not work like so many others that have been 
reported. I am running
Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS 64 bits,
kernel 4.4.0-75-generic,
Broadcom Bluetooth BCM20702A1 (001.002.014) build ,
Latest BIOS: LENOVO 2359CTO/2359CTO, BIOS G4ETA7WW (2.67 ) 08/24/2016

My dmesg error is:
bluetooth hci0: Direct firmware load for brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e6.hcd failed 
with error -2
Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: Patch brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e6.hcd not found

My list of files in /lib/firmware/brcm is:
bcm4329-fullmac-4.bin brcmfmac43242a.bin  brcmfmac4350-pcie.bin
bcm43xx-0.fw  brcmfmac4329-sdio.bin   brcmfmac4354-sdio.bin

brcmfmac43241b5-sdio.bin  brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin  brcmfmac4371-pcie.bin

Notice there is no *.hcd file... or anything for a 20702*

Note that I do NOT have blueman installed.

I am unable to pair with a mobile phone. The dmesg log repeats the
firmware loading error every time I attempt to use the Gnome Bluetooth
desktop utility.

I have spent a lot of time chasing posts on related Broadcom bluetooth
errors here and elsewhere without success. My bluetooth has not be
operational for a VERY long time!

When will we get a fix for this?

[Brinstar]

This may seem like a bizarre fix but I read about someone else trying it
and so having run into the issue with no Bluetooth device appearing, I
gave it a try. TL;DR version, you need to install Windows 7 (or any
other recent version), install the official Dell Bluetooth drivers, the
adapter should switch on and become available in Windows. Once it does,
reboot and install Ubuntu and the device should become available in
Ubuntu.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[groby]

I'm not a ubuntu geek, so please be considerate of me!!! I just can say, that I 
had to download and had to install the btusb-driver separately and additionally 
to my system, to get bluetooth working. I use ubuntu-studio. Is it possible 
that there is no btusb-driver implemented in this distribution?? When I checked 
all the btusb.c-files, I had installed on my system meanwhile, it seems that 
they have all different contents Sorry, but that's all confusing me!
Regards.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[groby]

Bluetooth seems to work now on my computer. I made a mistake by installing 
btusb. I got the driver from a dropbox-folder somewhere in the internet, and 
additionally I had to install a dkms-package. It's a little bit strange for me 
that I coudn't find the btusb-driver linked on any Ubuntu-Distribution Site or 
in the Softwarecentre. You find only some different dkms-packeges, which I 
tried beforer, to get bluetooth working (without any result of course!). 
I think it would be helpful, to upload the btusb-driver on the 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/ Site! 
If it's already on it, please send me a link.

Thanks!

The btusb driver is built into the kernel. There is no separate package.

What's weird is the file names it's looking for keep changing. For mine
it used to look for "BCM920702 Bluetooth 4.0-0a5c-21e8.hcd". Then at
some point it started looking for "BCM20702A0-0a5c-21e8.hcd". Now it's
looking for "BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e8.hcd". I don't know why these keep
changing.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[groby]

Hi,

I've got the same problem as Khunphil after a reinstall of Ubuntu(-Studio) on 
my Lenovo Ideapad G500. Firmware is in the brcm-folder with the correct name, 
but hci0 is not patched/loaded. 
btusb, bluetooth-touch, bcmwl-kernel-source is installed. Not installed is 
broadcom-sta-dkms. Tried to install it, but fails (see Bug #1504975). I don't 
know, if broadcom-sta-dkms is needed?? It's Ubuntu-Version 15.10.
Is there anything I missed? Is it the broadcom-sta-dkms?

Thanks!

Hi,
here

 there is a solutions for properly reading the firmware module for Broadcom

In my case it works well. Let me know if this solve the problem.

Bug description:
  Broadcom bluetooth chips require a tool called patchram uploader [1]
  to load firmware. This applies to at least BCM20702 and BCM43142.
  Although some of the devices have an OTPROM that contains required
  firmware, but it is found that these devices would not have HFP/HSP
  support unless a upgraded firmware is loaded via patchram uploader.

  This tool requires hci device to do the firmware loading, but this may
  cause some race condition between patchram tool and bluetoothd or
  something that also works on hci interface.

  Also it needs some hooks to make firmware loads after bootup, s3,  s4,
  rfkill, and device hotplug events. Implement this loader in kernel
  module would make things more easier.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[zebul666]

this does not work anymore in ubuntu 15.04 beta.
the firmware is not loaded and the kernel does not even attempt to do so. At 
least I see nothing in the logs.

buetooth is not working here. no device detected :-(

It was working in 14.10

Hello Jesse

I have put the file fwhcd in the lib/firmware/brcm because it seems
that this is the new place.

Here is the message

@goliy:

It's due to 413c:8197 isn't marked as firmware needed in the source
code, thus btusb won't load the firmware you provided. Patch is already
sent to upstream (in #134 and #139).

@khunphil,

dmesg | grep Bluetooth should show something indicating firmware is
loaded or not, just like those in #136. Would you mind to attach the
output of usb-devices of this device and lsusb -t?

Hi

Ubuntu 14.10 / I follow instructions and got my BCM43142A0-0a5c-21d7.hcd
in /lib/firmware/brcm.

dmesg | grep Bluetooth

[   16.456618] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.19
[   16.456641] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
[   16.456648] Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized

So all looks perfect, but bluetooth is still not visible via interface
bluetooth menu. Did I miss something ?

Bluetooth is still disabled (Aspire E5-471G-53C8)

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Nick B.]

Apparently in 14.10 the .hcd file needs to be /lib/firmware/brcm.
Here is the .hcd file for the IOGEAR GBU521 (0a5c:21e8).  Place it in 
/lib/firmware/brcm/BCM920702 Bluetooth 4.0-0a5c-21e8.hcd (Yes including the 
spaces in the file name)

modprobe -r btusb
modprobe btusb

Looks like it is successfully loading the firmware
[513973.825046] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: patching hci_ver=06 hci_rev=153a 
lmp_ver=06 lmp_subver=220e
[513974.598398] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: firmware hci_ver=06 hci_rev=153a 
lmp_ver=06 lmp_subver=220e

If you have a different model you can find what the filename should be from 
syslog 
[513871.502139] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: patch brcm/BCM920702 Bluetooth 
4.0-0a5c-21e8.hcd not found

Note: the attached .hcd only works for the IOGEAR GBU521. You'll have to
find and convert the .hex file for your specific model.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[goliy]

Hi guys!

I have the same bug: a headset doesn't work in HSP/HFP mode
The firmware(BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1315.1410.hex) is successfully converted 
via hex2hcd and placed to /lib/firmware/fw-413c_8197.hcd

any hints?

I see only these errors in the syslogs:

@sisirg, The firmware can't be included in Ubuntu repo due to its
license... The only way to get one is to extract one from the windows
driver, at least for now.

@futurepilot, 0a5c:21e8 is already covered by
USB_VENDOR_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(0x0a5c, 0xff, 0x01, 0x01) in the ID table.

Is there a bug for the missing IDs? AFAIK 0a5c:21e8 still needs to be

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[zebul666]

hi.
from the many previous posts I was able to decipher the procedure to use:
1) find in the windows driver .inf the hex file to use and convert
2) get and compile and use hex2hcd to convert file to firmware
3) place the file in /lib/firmware/bcrm/BCM43142A0-0a5c-21d7.hcd

and get in my /var/log/syslog, the line that says that the firmware is loaded
Nov  9 20:24:19 callisto kernel: [   23.061550] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: firmware 
hci_ver=06 hci_rev=00b0 lmp_ver=06 lmp_subver=210b

until I found out some weeks later than, the firmware is not always
loaded when I boot, I don't know why. there is no error in the log but
the firmware is not loaded.

If I close the lid and reopen it to hibernate and wake-up then the
firmware is finally loaded !

but then I found out the lines

that's kind of confusing. Is it crashing because it tries to reload the

I got that dump stack before installing the firmware, but now the file
is there why does it tells it can't find the file ?

send patches for these missing IDs.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Thilo Cestonaro]

So, I think I now know the problem.

Regarding this code snippet (3.16.7 btusb)
[CODE]
{ USB_VENDOR_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(0x0489, 0xff, 0x01, 0x01) },

/* Broadcom devices with vendor specific id */
{ USB_VENDOR_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(0x0a5c, 0xff, 0x01, 0x01),
  .driver_info = BTUSB_BCM_PATCHRAM },
[/CODE]
the patchram fw load function is only used with devices with VID 0x0a5c. Thats 
not good, as my device is of VID 0x0489 and needs the broadcom fw too.  :(

My device is a BCM 2070 (  0489:e031 Foxconn / Hon Hai ).

How can I get the .driver_info = BTUSB_BCM_PATCHRAM },  into my btusb
module for the 0x0489 devices?

/lib/firmware/brcm/BCM43142A0-vid-pid.hcd instead. Please try 'dmesg
| grep Bluetooth' and see if there's an error message indicating
firmware missing.

[Thilo Cestonaro]

Thx for the answer.
Sadly, there is no indication of a missing firmware :(.


[   29.980043] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.19
[   29.980058] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized
[   29.980064] Bluetooth: HCI socket layer initialized
[   29.980066] Bluetooth: L2CAP socket layer initialized
[   29.980073] Bluetooth: SCO socket layer initialized
[   32.874973] Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized
[   32.874984] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized
[   32.874997] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11
[   33.702638] Bluetooth: BNEP (Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.3
[   33.702641] Bluetooth: BNEP filters: protocol multicast
[   33.702649] Bluetooth: BNEP socket layer initialized
[ 4216.638384] Bluetooth: hci0 urb 8800c5e09600 failed to resubmit (2)


And anyway, in my case it should be a BCM20802A0  
can I place the working firmware at /lib/firmware/brcm/ and hope it will be 
picked? What naming do I need to take care of?
Currently the file is called, BCM20702A0_001.001.024.0156.0204.hex, which I do 
download by bcmfwup.py to make my bluetooth work.

Any hints?

So, the next Ubuntu release is coming and the bug is again there.

Utopic Unicorn kernel doesn't download the correct firmware.

Jesse, could you please fix it again? :)

Thanks a lot!

[Abel Bolanos Martinez]

Hello,
I have an Iogear GBU521  and I'm using Ubuntu 14.04

dmesg | grep -B1 Broadcom
[1.439431] usb 3-1: Product: BCM20702A0
[1.439432] usb 3-1: Manufacturer: Broadcom Corp

A2DP works fine but I have the same issue(HSP/HFP is not working) no mic or 
audio
I downloaded the *.hcd from comment #120 to /lib/firmware and restarted the PC 
but nothing have changed.

Am I missing something to make it works?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[e64462]

I found this page from the archlinux forums in this topic:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=133093p=1

I wrote up the steps I took to get my card partially working in this
post:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1430884#p1430884

I say partially because I've only been able to stream music to some
bluetooth speakers so  far. My phone pairs, but I'm unable to do
anything with it.

I'm having a weird problem though. Using the tool posted in the
archlinux topic I'm able to inject the firmware that I found in the
windows driver, but things aren't working very well as I mentioned
above, and I just noticed that I've done the same thing as the user in
post #101, namely:

usb-devices
-
T:  Bus=03 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=03 Cnt=03 Dev#=  3 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 2.00 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=01 Prot=01 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0b05 ProdID=17cf Rev=01.12
S:  Manufacturer=Broadcom Corp
S:  Product=BCM20702A0
S:  SerialNumber=54271E328D4F
C:  #Ifs= 4 Cfg#= 1 Atr=e0 MxPwr=0mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=btusb
I:  If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=btusb
I:  If#= 2 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=(none)
I:  If#= 3 Alt= 0 #EPs= 0 Cls=fe(app. ) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=(none)
-

So you can see that my chipset is BCM20702A0, but the only hex file
that's mentioned in the windows driver relating to my prodID of 17cf is:

BCM20702A1_001.002.014.1443.1469.hex

As you can see, BCM20702A1 != BCM20702A0, so I'm wondering if anyone can
provide some advice.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Anthony Kamau]

Hi there.

I'm running Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (14.04) 64bit and I'm affected by this
bug.

By following the instructions here (especially comment #101 by Chris
(poser) on 2013-09-15), I was able to get HSP/HFP working on my system.
I realized something was broken when I tried to pair my Laptop with a
PLCM VS500 (Voice Station conference phone) and couldn't.  I was
especially angry when a friend running a MacBook Air (Grrr, don't get me
started...) was able to immediately pair and use the headset.  My anger
brought me here and I can say all is well.

System Details:
***

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Sergio Benjamim]

Hello, there is a Sony Vaio with this device:

0489:e062 Foxconn / Hon Hai (BCM43142A0)

Wifi works, but Bluetooth does not. So, this is a problem with firmware
load? More info in bug #1263351

Bug description:
  Broadcom bluetooth chips require a tool called patchram uploader [1]
  to load firmware. This applies to at least BCM20702 and BCM43142.
  Although some of the devices have an OTPROM that contains required
  firmware, but it is found that these devices would not have HFP/HSP
  support unless a upgraded firmware is loaded via patchram uploader.

  This tool requires hci device to do the firmware loading, but this may
  cause some race condition between patchram tool and bluetoothd or
  something that also works on hci interface.

  Also it needs some hooks to make firmware loads after bootup, s3,  s4,
  rfkill, and device hotplug events. Implement this loader in kernel
  module would make things more easier.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Ray-Ven]

ok this is stupid. It's working. The device was just switched off.
rfkill said it's neither soft nor hardblocked, so I thought everything
was fine! The hardware-switch was switched on so I thought it should
work. Still, there is a fn+f5 combination which was needed to power the
device, despite the fact that in bluetooth/main.conf remember last
state was on false and power on on boot was true.

Seems not to be working with 3.11.0-12 in saucy. Even hex2hcded the
latest firmware, and It's loaded, but cannot pair a device :-( worked
the other day in saucy.

  Broadcom bluetooth chips require a tool called patchram uploader [1]

  Although some of the devices have an OTPROM that contains required
  firmware, but it is found that these devices would not have HFP/HSP
  support unless a upgraded firmware is loaded via patchram uploader.

  This tool requires hci device to do the firmware loading, but this may
  cause some race condition between patchram tool and bluetoothd or
  something that also works on hci interface.

  Also it needs some hooks to make firmware loads after bootup, s3,  s4,
  rfkill, and device hotplug events. Implement this loader in kernel
  module would make things more easier.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Kyle Manna]

I'm running 3.11.0-7 Saucy kernel on Raring and the firmware gets
loaded, but it doesn't enable A2DP.  Seems that the firmware loader is
working, but I have the wrong firmware?

I have an Iogear GBU521 / 0a5c:21e8  like Elijah.  I fetched the windows
driver from http://www.iogear.com/support/dm/driver/GBU521 and used
hex2hcd on firmware BCM20702A1_001.002.014.0889.0896.hex from the
bcbtums-win8x64-brcm.inf from my vid:pid.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Ondřej Janošík]

With  brcm_patchram_plus_usb and hex2hdc I managed to get HFP/HSP on my laptop 
working (no sound/mic before) using BCM20702A1_001.002.014.0449.0775.hex 
patchram.
However after copying fw-04ca_2003.hcd into /lib/firmware/ and rebooting it 
doesn't loads patchram and I have to do it manually again.

I'm running Ubuntu-Raring with 3.8.0.30.48 kernel.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Brad Figg]

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-raring-
needed' to 'verification-raring-done'.

If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be
dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  Broadcom bluetooth chips require a tool called patchram uploader [1]
  to load firmware. This applies to at least BCM20702 and BCM43142.
  Although some of the devices have an OTPROM that contains required
  firmware, but it is found that these devices would not have HFP/HSP
  support unless a upgraded firmware is loaded via patchram uploader.

  This tool requires hci device to do the firmware loading, but this may
  cause some race condition between patchram tool and bluetoothd or
  something that also works on hci interface.

  Also it needs some hooks to make firmware loads after bootup, s3,  s4,
  rfkill, and device hotplug events. Implement this loader in kernel
  module would make things more easier.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1065400] Re: Support for loading Broadcom bluetooth firmware

[Derrik Pates]

I had this same issue with an IOGear USB Bluetooth 4.0 adapter:

Bus 006 Device 019: ID 0a5c:21e8 Broadcom Corp.

I built and installed the brcm_patchram_plus_usb tool, used hex2hcd to
convert the firmware (extracted from the driver CD included with the
adapter - first time I've used one of those in awhile), and it made my
HSP profile Bluetooth headset work (a Plantronics Discovery 975) where I
only got silence before. Guessing this device's ID needs to be added to
the kernel as well. I did drop the firmware file into my /lib/firmware
directory as fw-0a5c_21e8.hcd as well. I'm running Mint 15 (based on
raring).
