Hello!

I’m trying to scan for available bluetooth devices with my VIM1 board folowing the guide (https://docs.khadas.com/vim1/HowToSetupBluetooth.html), but I have an error at first step:

   root@Khadas:~# hciconfig hci0 up
   Can't init device hci0: Connection timed out (110)

rfkill output:

root@Khadas:~# rfkill list
0: bt-dev: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
2: brcmfmac-wifi: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth

        Hard blocked: no

What am I doing wrong and how to connect VIM1 to BLE device?

hi,do you have a specific need of this very old distro ? what if you installed a more uptodate one having a mainline kernel and ubuntu 20.y or debian 10 or manjaro 20,x for example…
