Hello everyone
I have several raspberries working with rasbian (initially with Stretch and now with Buster) all with desktop and emoncms and domoticz, everything works perfect.
The only thing is that I can’t use bluetooth, it disappeared.
During the installation of emoncms on Rasbian with desktop, the Bluetooth icon is in the upper right corner, but after the last command of the installation (chmod + x init.sh && ./init.sh) and after restarting the icon of the bluetooth disappears.
I have tried everything to make it work but I have not been able.
How did you install emoncms? Assuming a Pi 2/3 (not sure about the 4, bluetooth and one of the serial ports are shared. I think the standard install of emoncms effictively turns off the bluetooth.
@TrystanLea , perhaps configuring the serial port should be an actual option in the install scripts rather than a decision based on the RPi environment flag.
I did an install on Pi 3
trying to revert the lines you told me
insert on /boot/config.txt
#dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt
and
sudo systemctl unmask [email protected]
sudo systemctl enable [email protected]
sudo systemctl start [email protected]
sudo systemctl enable hciuart
sudo systemctl start hciuart
sudo reboot
after reboot nothing change, there is no bluetooth icon on righy top corner
systemctl status bluetooth
loaded and active
systemctl status hciuart
loaded and active
trying with
pi@emonpi:~ $ bluetoothctl
Agent registered
[bluetooth]# agent on
Agent is already registered
[bluetooth]# default-agent
Default agent request successful
[bluetooth]# scan on
No default controller available
Problem, No default controller available, so trying more things
sudo apt-get install pi-bluetooth
sudo apt-get install bluez bluez-firmware
sudo apt-get install blueman
sudo usermod -G bluetooth -a pi
sudo reboot
and nothing change, i do not have more ideas
thanks
