Enable Bluetooth on Raspberry Pi3

Sasha

Hi guys,

I made a small project and now need the RPi to enable bluetooth automatically after bootup. Because It needs to connect to a bluetooth controller. Otherwise, I have to go into settings (with mouse and/or keyboard) and this is not the intention.

Is there a way/config/... to do so?
Thanks a lot!

Are there any updates?

Figured it out (more or less)

Can't do much, but the bluetooth seems to enable itself after a while.
So only solution is to wait (around 1 min after bootup)

Cheers

Same issues to me. I'm using a Raspberry pi3 B+.

Do we need to add a bluetooth dongle to the Raspberry pi3 B+ ?

Do Emeteria have a solution for this issue ?

Bluetooth does not work on the 3B+ and @IKS has said this many times.

This is mentioned all over the forum if people just used the search function.

Sorry sgrayban.

I will hope to a solution from emteria...
This isssues with the bluetooth is specific with the 3B+ or BT it's working with the older version on Raspberry ?

Cheers,

sgrayban

It's just the 3B+

I ended up giving up running and even put another device to perform the function of bluetooth, the system was losing the purpose considering the portability of raspberry was sendable to keep the emmetry in the device

Without Bluetooth can't do what I want to do so time to erase my evaluation after only a few hours. Oh well.

When bluetooth will finally work on pi3 b+ ?

Is there any update for the BT support on RPI 3 B+? Please ...

TheBinder

Is this being actively working on? Kinda ridiculous that this hasn't been fixed yet

Geoff

Seems to be broken on 3B as well. Turns on but can't hold a connection.

Di11on

Looking forward to this also? Is Emteria being actively developed? The latest beta doesn't even support the official touch screen?!? Could be that our best hope is that the Pi 4 gets official Android support

IKS

Yes, the OS is being actively developed. There will be no solution for BT with Android 7 and RPi 3B/+. Further Android versions are likely to have working BT.

i have the same problem, a USB BT doongle doesnt work ether and sorry guys but this problem seems to be xince 1 year.... i bought a license and i hope the guys doing something quickly !

Hi, same problem here with a RPI 3 B+.
The USB dongle from my Trust mouse works fine, but my keyboard (that I use with a tablet) doesn't have a dongle and I caonnt connect it.
I have a licence and it doesn't make sense that two years later, there is no answer or solution.

Themlruts

Are you serious this still is not fixed? Come on guys. I am about to pull the trigger on a license but Bluetooth is an very important part of my project. Whith out it is worthless.

What’s the deal? In this day in age not having BT support is just ridiculous.

trialuser

Similar to Themlruts, I am evaluating RPI3B+ with Emteria to use Bluetooth and TeamViewer Host. Alas, I didn't know Bluetooth is not working at all!
