Hi,

 

I'm experiencing the same problem. Rolling back to kernel pinebook 5.15.74-rockchip64 made Bluetooth work again.

 

Cheers,

Ivan

bluetooth is also not working for me  in newest build.  I have pinebook Pro.  thanks   any advice?

[River-mochi]

1.  I   used  Armbian  Build for   Pinebook Pro  laptop,  Armbian 22.11 Jammy XFCE  Nov 30, 2022.  built onto SD card.
2. Booted to Armbian SD  card 
3. used    armbian-config
4. installed Bluetooth from armbian-config    I saw  icon show on on the  task bar ,  when i clicked it to start Bluetooth, it crashed.
5. I tried  Removing and   Installing Bluetooth  many times  and  shutting down and restarting laptop. 
6. the Bluetooth Icon does no appear in the  task bar.    and the  blueman-manager and adapter  do not  open  when I type them in the run box.  

 

1. Bluetooth hardware works on this pinebook Pro Laptop, but only when i tried things like    Manajaro   XFCE And  KDE on Emmc . on manjaro, Bluetooth works on both of those and I see icon in task bar and I connected 3  different bluetooth /BLE devices. 
2. It just doesn't work for Armbian i have freshly loaded.  I also  tried  4 different SD cards now all with armbian. Other things run fine,  Internet , wifi, etc,  just not the Bluetooth.
3. Only on Armbian,  I'm not seeing the Bluetooth Icon in taskbard and  Blueman keeps crashing.   I have uninstalled and reinstalled it  at least  10 times now  using  armbian-config.   
4. I also  checked did armbian Updates.
5. Nothing will bring the bluetooth icon back and I can't connect  devices  (bluetooth hardware seems to work fine on other distros with same laptop). 
6. is this a Bug  or something  I am doing wrong with the Install of Bluetooth?

@ivan_holmes   I just tried from inside armbian-config to  roll back to  older kernel   5.15.74-rockchip64     and it soft bricked the Pinebook Pro.

how did you install   5.15.74  did you do it from inside  of the  armbian-config  ,  others  to switch kernel (since that did not work for me).   or some other method?

 

I now have  newest  Armbian Gnome  SD card booted up on PbPro  using the  EMMC switch trick  (emmc switch off, hit power button, count 2-3 seconds , push switch back on).    
on SD  boot,  Armbian Gnome , Bluetooth also does not work,  using the  Gui  settings,  no matter how many times  I hit  Bluetooth on,  it doesn't turn on. 

 

Are there any command line options I could check?

Downgrade from armbian-config, broke boot for me too
Just take image from https://imola.armbian.com/archive/pinebook-pro/archive/ 
for example https://imola.armbian.com/archive/pinebook-pro/archive/Armbian_22.08.1_Pinebook-pro_bullseye_current_5.15.63.img.xz 
and don't forget "armbian-config -> System -> Freeze" for prevent kernel update

[River-mochi]

thanks @koftikes  I had no idea what the   armbian-config  system freeze  was for.

I am running Armbian 22.11  on my PineBook Pro from both eMMC and SD and have installed the latest upgrades.  It is now the end of February and I have still not found any way to get BlueTooth or the camera to work.  If anyone has a solution, I sure would appreciate some insight.
