[Bug 214750] Re: browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices
This should be significantly improved in the BlueZ Gnome 1.8 package that entered intrepid yesterday. You won't be able to browse devices that don't provide OBEX. ** Changed in: bluez-gnome (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214750 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 214750] Re: browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices
I was having similar problems with a Logitech v470 bluetooth mouse. After reading Onkar Shinde's post, I realized that I was using the UI incorrectly. When you right click on the Bluetooth icon there is the "Browse Device..." option. I was incorrectly reading this as "Browse FOR Devices..." To actually connect my mouse I had to do the following: 1. Right click the Bluetooth Icon 2. Select "Preferences..." 3. In the device's tab (mine was called "fourtytwo-0", yours will be different) there is a pane for "Bonded devices" that was empty. 4. I put my mouse in discovery mode and it appeared in the bonded devices screen. 5. While it was in discovery mode I clicked the "Add Trust" button (actual name may be slightly different. So now I had a trusted device but it still didn't work and when I went to Services, it didn't show up. It turns out that the discovery mode is short lived and your device needs to be in discovery mode even if it is trusted for it to appear in the services window. So... 6. Click the Services tab. 7. Make sure the service you want is running. 8. Select the service you want to add your device to. 9. Cick the "Add" button. 10. Put your device (in my case my mouse) in discovery mode again and it should appear. Bob's your uncle. I hope this helps. As far as the bug report goes, maybe a more helpful message like "No devices found that support browsing." Unfortunately the term "Browse" is incredibly overloaded in this business. -- browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214750 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 214750] Re: browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices
Might be helpful for others. In a new attempt I have selected on the "BROWSE DEVICES" instead of "ALL TYPES" just "HEADSET" and the message got different : Couldn't display "obex://[00:13:17:30:A9:E9]/". Error: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) Please select another viewer and try again. but then trying again the "HOST DOWN" message comes back again an again. By the way the Browse Device feature can only accept ALL CATEGORY and with BOUNDED or TRUSTED the device H700 disappears from the list of the devices. -- browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214750 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

i only get this error if i connect 2 of the same bt devices. i have 2 m1330s each with a v470. i image from one laptop and restore to the other. the mac addresses are different so i was able to connect the first v470 without issue. once i connect the second v470, i got 'obex host down'. and i think 'directory exists'. i haven't tried editing the conf files yet which is my next step before completely reinstalling bt. -- browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214750 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am also experiencing this problem. I am trying to connect Targus Bluetooth Mouse AMB01 with Acer Travelmate 8104 running Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron. I was able to connect my phone and copy files from phone to laptop. I had it working in 7.04 some time ago, but can't remember what I did to get it working then.

FYI: I am experiencing the exact same issue. Trying to connect a Logitech V470 Wireless Bluetooth Laser Mouse on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron. Please help! I was able to get this working temporarily by making changes to the /etc/default/bluetooth file, but now it has recently stopped working.

[Bug 214750] Re: browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices
I confirm this bug report and set the Importance to Wishlist. I changed the description to suggest the removal of non-OBEX devices from the Browse devices menu since the error would not show if only OBEX devices would be there. Thanks for this bug report! ** Summary changed: - Couldn't display obex + browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices ** Description changed: Binary package hint: bluez-gnome Scenario: Hardy, amd64, DVD live image of today (4/9/08). Set my Bluetooth headset (BTST-9300) to pairing mode. Select "Browse device" from the Bluetooth applet. It says: BTST-9300 headset Select it and click on [connect]. Then there is an error popup saying Couldn't display "obex://[00:0A:94:A1:4A:42]" Error: host down Please select another viewer and try again. Of course I did not select _any_ viewer, so this error message is not helpful to get Bluetooth working. + + Update : This bug ask bluez-gnome to show only OBEX compatible devices + in browse devices. If this is not possible, Gnome/gvfs could just to + show a more comprehensible error message when connecting to the device + so the overall user can understand that the device is "not browsable". ** Changed in: bluez-gnome (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: New => Confirmed -- browse device should not try to connect non-OBEX devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214750 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
