Bluetooth problem

Thanks for your reply @spenceur,
For me everything runs on a Raspberry Pi 3b+ — Rflink, Gladys, Node-RED, Zigbee etc… it might be that, I’ll try Gladys alone on a Raspberry Pi and run Bluetooth to see
Thanks

Hello everyone,
For a few days I’ve been trying to troubleshoot my Bluetooth, and I would like to remove some settings that I think are causing my Bluetooth to crash.
I get this by running:

dmesg -s 1024
[ 4955.946447] Bluetooth: RFCOMM TTY layer initialized
[ 4955.946506] Bluetooth: RFCOMM socket layer initialized
[ 4955.946544] Bluetooth: RFCOMM ver 1.11

I had previously installed an external Bluetooth dongle, and I think its drivers are causing this, so I would like to remove them — is that possible?

Good evening everyone,

Still having my Bluetooth disconnect after half an hour of proper operation, I just noticed that when upgrading to version 4.12.2, Bluetooth restarted by itself — does Gladys reboot after a version upgrade?

Are you talking about a reboot of the Pi?

Gladys is a Docker container so the update means:

  • downloading the new Docker image
  • removing the container
  • creating a new container (with the same database)

So there is necessarily a « restart » of Gladys but not the system that runs Docker (in this case the Pi)

Hello @VonOx
I was talking about Gladys, but of course there’s a reboot :upside_down_face:. However the Pi doesn’t reboot. But restarting Gladys makes the Bluetooth restart and it crashes again after about an hour on average. I just read that you should install a 32-bit image rather than the 64-bit one because the 64-bit version is only stable from the RPI4 onwards. I’ll try that

That is indeed possible, since if it’s hardware, there may be an issue with the kernel / driver.

Hello,
So for info, my Bluetooth problems are resolved by reinstalling a 32-bit version of the Gladys image on my RPI 3B+. Regarding Node-RED and RFLink the installation issue doesn’t change, I have to follow the procedure from the Node-RED RFLink and Gladys tutorial.
If this can help someone!
