I have a Sony Ericson Z520a as well. I can confirm this bug in bluez 4.51 on Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04LTS Lucid Lynx Alpha. I would like to request it to be fixed in upcoming versions (if possible, it would be nice to have a solud BT stack for the LTS release). The issue is that I cannot start bluetooth remote control service from the phone.
Process which works: -BT Menu > Setup new device -Select phone, phone gets message "Add to my devices?",enter pin -Phone prompts: <host> requesting access to your phone as a remote control -> Yes What doesn't work: -From phone, go to bluetooth "My devices" -Select <host> and then show services Result: Error is displayed on phone "Service supported: no local services found" Expecting: Either one of these would be good: 1) Find out why you cannot start a service from the phone and fix it 2) Have a way to prompt the phone to be a remote from the BT applet & Preferences window Currently, every time I want to use the phone as a mouse/remote-control I must remove it from BT > Preferences, and use the "BT Menu > Setup new device" wizard. -- cell/mobile phone has to be added as an input device to be used as a Bluetooth remote control https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
