Bluetooth Manager LINK

I can no longer stand the poor bluetooth manager that Windows 10 comes with. Does anyone know of any alternatives that are a little more functional? Every time I want to connect my bluetooth headphones (Skullcandy Crusher Wireless) its a struggle to get them to connect, if I even can at all. I have a bluetooth stero also and the same problem with that. What I'm looking for is something like what Android has: just click on the device to connect to, and then connect to it. To disconnect, click on the device and then "disconnect", instead of having to "remove device" and then restart my PC next time I connect to it. Does such a thing exist?

Basically, my computer has Realtek hardware for wifi and bluetooth. Now the wifi card is terrible with linux. It simply doesn't work. The bluetooth is slightly better in the sense that I can use it to connect to any devices and everything works fine, but the catch (strangely) is that I can only get it to work using the Blueman bluetooth manager. I've now installed blueman on zorin and am able to connect to bluetooth devices, but the process of connecting isn't very straightforward. For example, my system can't auto-connect to my bluetooth device (earphones), and I need to try connecting multiple times to get it working. I'm guessing it's because the default bluetooth manager somehow interferes(?) with blueman, preventing it from operating as desired. This guess is based on the fact that in an Arch install I have with blueman as the only bluetooth manager everything works seamlessly.

For this reason and the fact that having 2 bluetooth icons in the panel, 1 from blueman and the other, the default one, looks weird I wanna ask if there's anyway to disable the default bluetooth manager and use only blueman.

As @Aravisian has pointed out in his comment, I don't wanna disable the bluetooth functionality altogether. I'm just looking for a way to disable the default bluetooth manager. But thank you for the reply.

I only have 1 version of blueman downloaded. But running apt list --installed shows that I also have gnome-bluetooth installed which I guess is the default bluetooth manager, i.e the one that appears when I go to, say, Settings -> Bluetooth. Is it safe to uninstall this gnome-bluetooth package.

So I uninstalled gnome-bluetooth today and it seems to make absolutely no difference. I also saw the package libgnome-bluetooth13 listed with all the installed packages, which seems to be relevant. But when I tried to uninstall that, I was asked for permission to uninstall a whole bunch of very important packages including (but not limited to) zorin-desktop-session and zorin-os-desktop. So I didn't go through with the uninstallation. So I ask, is it just the case that gnome simply isn't built to allow users to disable the default bluetooth management software?

Yes. The bluetooth device I'm mainly using are my earphones. Now whenever I connect my earphones to some device, I hear (as a feature of the product) a voice in the earphones saying "Connected". And when I disconnect the thin, I hear the word "Disconnected".

What happens in my installation of Arch, with blueman as the sole bluetooth manager is that the first time I have to pair with and connect to my device using the GUI and this happens without a hitch. I choose the pair option and then the connect option and I'm done. Subsequently, all I have to do is turn on my earphones, and within seconds, I hear "Connected".

What happens in Zorin is this: Without installing Blueman, if I try to connect to my device using the default bluetooth manager it simply does not work. Now pairing is not an issue. But after pairing, when I select my device from the list shown under bluetooth settings and click on the slider to connect, some times the slider moves to the 'on' position and in a few seconds just gets back to the 'off' position. And other times, the slider moves and stays in the 'on' position and the bluetooth manager shows that I'm connected, but in my ears I hear "Disconnected" and I can't even find my earphones in the sound settings section or play any sounds through them.

Now with a combination of blueman and the default manager, pairing is again not an issue (of course, it never was). But when I try to connect, neither blueman nor the default manager can get the job done. When I try to connect through blueman, I see error messages such as Failed to connect: Resource temporarily unavailable or Failed to connect: Host is down and then both blueman and the default manager start to falsely show that I'm connected. The say I'm connected, but I know I'm not because I just heard the word "Disconnected" and I can't play sounds on the earphones even after this. However, after carrying out this exercise, a new option becomes available when I right click on Blueman's systray icon, namely, Recent Connections > Auto connect profiles on . When I choose this option, it takes less than a second for my earphones to get connected. Subsequently, when I turn the earphones off and on again, the first thing I hear is "Disconnected". Then sometimes I can still see the Recent Connections options and selecting it can get me connected, but other times the option is greyed out and I have to repeat the process of trying to connect with the GUI to make the option available again.

I just tried to run these commmands. pulseaudio-module-bluetooth was already installed but I reinstalled it nonetheless. But I couldn't successfully run pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover. When I run it, I'm greeted with the error Failure: Module initialization failed. When I try to run it as superuser I get the following messages:

The most robust way (and mid future-proof, if possible) to connect bluetooth earbuds/earphones (playing/listening is enough - microphone is not needed), especially when playing from current, standard Manjaro-packed Firefox.

This occurs on both of my Dell machines, one is a XPS13 9360, the other XPS15 9570. The upgrade on the 9360 included a pacnew of /etc/bluetooth/main.conf. Bluetooth did not work with either or the "old" main.conf or the pacnew version.

Yesterday, I reformatted my Lenovo G580 laptop, and ran a clean installation of Windows 10. After the installation Bluetooth disappeared completely. I waited till all the updates are downloaded and installed. However, this did not install the bluetooth driver. Note that before this clean installation, I was running Windows 10 with Bluetooth perfectly working.

I have a bluetooth headset (Bose Quietcomfort 35) and I am trying to connect it to Leap 42.2 properly. My goal is actually to achieve this using Icewm (I have an old netbook which does not run well with KDE or Plasma).

I have two devices on which I am testing the connection: my main laptop and the aforementioned netbook. The laptop has win10 and leap42.2 on it and can run any GUI and the netbook has leap 42.2 and works fine only with icewm.

Today, after rebooting, the Bluetooth radio seems to have disappeared. I've tried suggestions found on this forum, such as uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and nothing has worked. The Bluetooth radio does not appear in device manager at all.

Last week, I gave an old laptop a second life. It's an old ASUS, I think it camewith Windows 8 back in the day, and I installed Debian 11 with XFCE on it. This looksvery retro, but it works like a charm. I can now use the battery for serveralhours, while with Windows it would die after 5 minutes. And today I got my bluetoothmouse working.

This is one of the very few Android Bluetooth managers that actually work properly. It automatically connects to your Android device when Bluetooth turns on or when your Android device screen goes on. Initially you will have to connect your Android device manually for the first time and from then onwards it will automatically recognize your Android device. You can connect several Bluetooth devices at one time by giving priority to the devices. But sometimes it just cannot detect your Android device or auto Bluetooth of feature doesn't work on some mobiles.

Btoolkit bluetooth manager automatically scans the Android devices and attaches one Android device with one of your contacts so you can easily access them. You can sort, filter the list of Android devices and even share favorite pictures or music with your contacts. However, it has some issues with Android version 4.1+ as it cannot pair with PIN less devices.

This Android bluetooth manager automatically connects to your selected device upon receiving a call and as soon as the call ends. It disables Bluetooth again to save power. This app is useful if you are driving a car because you can take incoming calls without stopping. It also improves your battery life tremendously.

If you are a music lover, this Bluetooth manager for Android is developed for you. It is a simple tool to manage your remote Android devices and play music on your wireless headset or wireless speakers. Just connect the Android device via bluetooth manager ICS and enable/ disable the audio feature checkbox. However, there are two negative points: firstly, it doesn't stream audio properly and there is a lag sometimes; secondly, you have to pay for this app. ff782bc1db
