Return-Path: Message-ID: <4B5749B9.2080108@zydacron.com> Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2010 19:21:45 +0100 From: Philip Oberstaller MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org" Subject: Scan of already paired devices Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Sender: linux-bluetooth-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Hello, I would like to know if it's possible to see already paired devices in the scan results? My scenario is the following: First I create a connection from my host to a device and pair the device and the host. Then I disconnect the connection by simply switching off the device. I remove the pairing at the host but obviously cannot remove the pairing from the device because there is no connection anymore. If I then switch on the device again I am not able to find it in the scanning results because the device has stored the "old" pairing and thus seems to be invisible. The device reappears in the scanning results only when I remove the pairing at the device itself. Thus anybody know what I could do from the host side to be able to make the device "visible" again. I am forced to use a quiet old bluez version 3.33. Maybe this behavior has changed in the meantime? I am grateful for any hints. Philip Oberstaller
