no more bluetooth applet [SOLVED]

MajinJoko · 2013-10-10 19:59:32

Hi there,

after upgrading to gnome-shell 3.10, my bluetooth-applet on the shell is disappeared!
During the upgrade I had to remove bluez4 to install bluez.

Is this behaviour correct?

It seems like this is no longer working... I don't know what happened. I'm working on fixing gnome-bluetooth-git from AUR, since that one has an applet built in (I think)

Hi,
I don't know if it's the same problem, but even my laptop can't connect anymore to anything via bluetooth (it used to work with my mobile phone and a wireless speaker..)

Sorry if I am wrong.

Apparently you can still pair using bluetooth-wizard or, if you're already paired, connect using bluetoothctl. It works for me, anyway.

gnome-bluetooth-git does have an applet, thats actually what i was using, only thing is its outdated as of now. And has been released by the dev who was working on it, i would fix it if i had any experience with AUR but sadly i do not, if anyone has advice or gets it working again please let me know.

Also, other forms of connecting to bluetooth will still work, its just, those are not as good or convenient. But as said above bluetoothctl still works enough to use lol.
