Howto: Getting Bluetooth (serial console) working on Debian
#9
After following the steps described here I am getting outputs that look like this:

howardr@pine64:~/rtl8723bs_bt$ sudo rfkill list
0: sunxi-bt: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
2: phy1: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
howardr@pine64:~/rtl8723bs_bt$ sudo rtk_hciattach /dev/ttyS1 rtk_h5
Realtek Bluetooth init uart with init speed:115200, final_speed:115200, type:HCI UART H5
Realtek Bluetooth :Realtek hciattach version 2.5

Realtek Bluetooth :3-wire sync pattern resend : 1, len: 8
[...]
Realtek Bluetooth :3-wire sync pattern resend : 40, len: 8
Realtek Bluetooth ERROR: H5 sync timed out

howardr@pine64:~/rtl8723bs_bt$ sudo hciconfig hci0 up
Can't get device info: No such device

I do have the "official WIFI 802.11BGN/BLUETOOTH 4.0 Module" and I'm using Debian Mate img 3.10.104-1-pine64-longsleep

As it appears that the OS isn't seeing Bluetooth, I assume as Peefrick said "something has gone horribly, horribly wrong already."

Any suggestions for getting my Pine64 to see my BT module?
(WiFi works fine, just as a point of info)

Thank you
