I can also report that in 16.04 LTS that selecting a fixed pin is not an option in the GUI. I originally posted a question on AskUbuntu and found my way here. AskUbuntu Question: https://askubuntu.com/questions/947255/missing-pin- options-from-bluetooth-pairing-gui I've attached an image I made combining the two screenshots. The top half is the buggy version missing the options under the Fixed PIN category and the bottom half is the complete and correct version. Unfortunately I do not know what version the good screenshot came from and I don't have enough rep on SO to post a comment to ask. I will also join the bug report on gnome-bluetooth too. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot of GUI missing options" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-bluetooth/+bug/551950/+attachment/4935410/+files/bugreport.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551950 Title: gnome-bluetooth cannot use pin = 1234 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-bluetooth/+bug/551950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For me tz's workaround does not work. For a long time the wizard stays on the connecting page and then it says Setting up 'My Phone' failed. And from that point it is a lost cause, there is nothing you can do to set up the device. The only thing that works is to kill blootoothd (started by udev I guess), unplug the BT radio and kill the applet then start it all over again by restarting the applet, reenabling bluetooth and plugging in the radio and then selecting the random pin. Pretty ridiculous. I have an LG KP 501 Cookie cellphone so fortunately I can use a random pin I just did not want to destroy the pairing of my other computer (I share the same USB-to-BT radio between the two computers so as far as my phone is concerned they are the same device). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551950 Title: gnome-bluetooth cannot use pin = 1234 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The same issue with a Bluetooth barcode scanner which can only provide a pin to be confirmed by the host and not the other way around.

[Bug 551950] Re: gnome-bluetooth cannot use pin = 1234
Baptiste, Yes, I did try this and was able to find it. If I selected fixed pin 1234, it accepts that then immediately shows me the 6 digit pin and tells me that it failed to connect. I have found the gnome-bluetooth package to be inconsistent with pairing and repairing. That is except with OBEX file transfer. That works very robustly and consistently with a nokia phone I have used. I have had much better luck with bluez-gnome in getting to pair and set up reliably my PANU network and to re-pair when the device returns to the vicinity of the computer. I have a hunch that some things were broken with the addition of btusb and not all cases have been repaired. Another thing that seems to be missing in both Bluez-gnome and gnome- bluetooth is the ability to set up a serial port. In Blueman, I was able to pair then immediately it set up /dev/rfcomm0 for me. I do not see any way of doing this in gnome-bluetooth. If I am missing it or if there is an update, I am willing to try. The other thing is that I have not been able to pair with the second serial port on the bluetooth device with any package. Blueman allows the first one to be set up, but does not see the second one (probably as it does not advertise itself as SPP). I have been using this under XP for some time and it works fine. I would love to be able to use it under Linux. Is there a web page describing some of the more esoteric aspects of gnome-bluetooth setup? I mean, if there is a way to query the device to get the info then edit some file to allow consistent operation, I am fine with that. any edits of the /etc/bluetooth files does not seem to do anything useful. I have not been able to find anything consistent on this. sdpbrowse does not seem to work, hciconfig scan does not see the serial port, either. In fact, it cannot even report back that it sees the BT radio on the device! I am happy and fine with using command line stuff to make this work, but that seems to be either lacking or has changed and I have not been able to find the documentation allowing me to make this connection. If this really sounds like I have messed something up with all this trial, is there a simple way I can totally remove and reinstall the gnome-bluetooth package to ensure that I have all the files and setup correct?
