Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Bluetooth 4.0 mouse not connecting
Huge thank you! bluetoothctl worked like a charm :) Cheers, Andrew On Monday, June 20, 2016 3:25:23 PM MSK, Tomas Öqvist wrote: Den 2016-06-17 kl. 21:31, skrev Andrew Penkrat: Hello, I'm trying to coonect Microsoft Arc Touch Bluetooth mouse to my BQ Aquaris M10 tablet and it doesn't even display in bluetooth settings.

Thanks, Andrew Have you looked at this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1576986 ? Bluetooth 4 or BLE devices are not discovered by Ubuntu Touch, but you can find and connect them through bluetoothctl in the Terminal. //Tomas -- Sent using Dekko from my Ubuntu device -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Bluetooth 4.0 mouse not connecting
Thanks Barry and Nathan. A compact Bluetooth dongle might be the best option, though I don't like that mouse will not be usable while charging.

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Bluetooth 4.0 mouse not connecting
As I understood from discussion of this bug [1] it should work with bluez 5.40. Will it come to UT any soon? It's a brand new mouse purchased specifically for use with my tablet, so if it's not going to work with it I will try getting my money back (without much hope for success though).
