@aromo Similar issue, couldn't connect UE Boom speaker was just getting 'Unable to register GATT service with handle 0x0001'. Found it strange that even when the speaker was powered down bluetoothd kept trying to connect (and disconnect seconds later)
What I found was, UE Boom speakers can be powered on remotely using the mobile application - which is done through Bluetooth LE. This is why the speaker was connected even when powered-down because of it was connected via LE. I could be wrong but I believe the GATT service manages the messages from LE devices - So I tried disabling Bluetooth Low Energy on the laptop bluetooth adaptor through this command: sudo btmgmt le off Unpaired the speaker, restarted the laptop and afterwards I had no more "Unable to Register GATT" or "Device is already marked connected messages" and I was able to connect the speaker through Audio Sink. Haven't had any issues with it since (except for having to run a2dp.py - but that is a separate issue) Perhaps you could try disabling le and see if it works for you too? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1490349 Title: 15:10 and 16.04: bluetoothd reports "Not enough handles to register service" at start Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On 15:10 after the bluetooth service has been stopped and restarted it is not possible to scan or connect to devices: $ sudo systemctl start bluetooth $ journalctl --unit=bluetooth | tail -n 19 | awk '{$1="";$2="";$4="";print $0}' 23:31:53 systemd[1]: Starting Bluetooth service... 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Bluetooth daemon 5.33 23:31:53 systemd[1]: Started Bluetooth service. 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Starting SDP server 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Bluetooth management interface 1.9 initialized 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Failed to obtain handles for "Service Changed" characteristic 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Error adding Link Loss service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Current Time Service could not be registered 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: gatt-time-server: Input/output error (5) 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Sap driver initialization failed. 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: sap-server: Operation not permitted (1) 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.440 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.440 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSink And $ bluetoothctl [NEW] Controller 00:1F:3A:E0:0A:AF hephaestion.lan.iam.tj [default] [NEW] Device 00:0A:95:4B:BD:C2 Apple Wireless Keyboard [NEW] Device 00:07:61:3B:86:98 Bluetooth Travel Mouse [bluetooth]# scan on Failed to start discovery: org.bluez.Error.NotReady To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1490349/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
