Bluetooth is not working on Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 H5 (with Armbian Focal Server).

Dear Armbian Zen Masters,


Please, help me turn on bluetooth on my Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 H5 board (running armbian focal server). This board is up to date (apt update and upgrade).


I've enabled bluetooth support from armbian-config on this board. But, bluetoothctl is not working (gets stuck in waiting for response on command execution). Wifi is working fine on this board.


(I could easily use bluetoothctl on my khadas vim3 pro board with "current armbian xfce desktop" on it)


Waiting for your response.

(Please, find the relevant board info below.)


Thanks in advance,

Spherulite.

So...where is it?

Please, find the relevant board info below.

All relevant information are within armbianmonitor -u output.

If -u does not work try -U and use a pasting service (like paste.debian.org for example) to provide logs.

Thanks Werner for your suggestions.

-u switch was not working but -U worked.

tried using paste.debian.org or paste.debian.net, neither of those worked.

Anyway, I'm attaching compressed (7zipped) .txt file containing the output of "armbianmonitor -U" on my Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 (H5) board, for your consideration.

 

Regards,

Spherulite.

I'll start by saying I don't own the board, but as this has come up and seems to be a problem across many boards using the same SoC and bits, it would appear on its face that the fix is probably generally the same across them all. Give or take a few differences?

 

My github reference to the issue: https://github.com/armbian/build/issues/1352#issuecomment-952077351

 

I've included two patches you could test that I made for 5.10.y as that appears to be the kernel ur using.

 

One thing I do not mention in the github issue is I also include the following to /etc/modules

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
bluetooth
hidp
rfcomm
bnep
hci_uart
