Bluetooth stuck in searching

Post by Stealps » Wed Dec 20, 2017 7:25 pm

When I open bluetooth app, it always showing lable "devices" with progress bar and "searching for devices" text, but never find any devices.
And CPU is heavily used during that time.
cinnamon --replace - 75%
xorg - 30%
blueberry.py - 30%
When I disable bluetooth, CPU usage going back to normal.

Post results for lsusb; dmesg | egrep -i 'blue|firm'
Many of the Broadcom bluetooth chipsets require firmware that can't be distributed but it can be acquired from Windows drivers and converted

See https://askubuntu.com/a/632348/300665 to see how to get the hex file from the Windows driver and convert it to the hcd file needed by Linux

I just took a driver from this repository https://github.com/winterheart/broadcom-bt-firmware - it's much easier, than looking for windows drivers and unpacking it.

BT is working now, but when I open bluetooth window (probably it's blueberry app) I get the same high CPU load with blueberry.py and "cinnammon --replace"
For me it's strange, that just looking for BT devices consuming more than 100% of i7-6700HQ core

Now I have a problems with bluetooth after a sleep mode. It starting work scratchy, like speaker is far away and signal strengh is not enouph. After some time system disconnects speaker (it doesn't find it out). After reboot I can connect to speaker and it work fine. Untill next sleep.
