Hi Robert,
I have a product board, it was working with bluetooth, but for some reason, bluetooth stops working.
dmesg | grep blue:

Blockquote

The last three lines disappeared.
rfkill list doesn’t show list the hci0 , the device name for bluetooth.

Any inside info that hinds some hardware issue?

Thank you,
David

Bluetooth on the wl18xx uses hci_uart for communication. What you see in your dmesg, is just the Bluetooth subsystem loading, there is really a lot for debugging…

Hi Robert,

I thought I run the following command to reload firmware for bluetooth chip before:

Blockquote
root@beaglebone:~# hciattach /dev/ttyO3 texas 115200 flow
Found a Texas Instruments’ chip!
Firmware file : /lib/firmware/TIInit_11.8.32.bts
Loaded BTS script version 1
texas: changing baud rate to 3000000, flow control to 1
Initialization timed out.

But now, I got the following error:
sudo hciattach /dev/ttyO3 texas 115200 noflow
Wanted to write 4 bytes, could only write 0. Stop
Can’t initialize device: Success

Did I miss something?

Thank you,

David
