[Solved] No bluetooth from AX200

Edit: Hello future searchers! It turns out it was a hardware issue that would also affect Windows (in which case it'd be greyed out in the device manager). Essentially there's a hardware bug with this chipset that sometimes causes bluetooth to fail, and it can be temporarily fixed by turning off the power, unplugging from the wall, waiting up to a minute, and then booting up again. Beyond that it seems to be random. When it's working, `lsusb` will give you "Intel Corp. AX200 Bluetooth" and `rfkill list` will have a bluetooth entry.

Hello! My motherboard has an integrated Intel AX200 card supplying wifi and bluetooth. The wifi works fine but I'm not getting anything at all on the bluetooth end.

I'm going to preface this with the fact that I'm dual booting with Windows 10, in which the bluetooth is working fine. This tells me it's probably not a hardware issue.

Kernel: `5.7.9-arch1-1`

`systemctl status bluetooth`:

● bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service

Jul 19 13:48:00 hostname bluetoothd[12893]: Bluetooth management interface 1.16 initialized

Following the debugging steps on the bluetooth wiki page, after stopping the bluetooth service I see this in the output of `sudo /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd -n -d`:

bluetoothd[12742]: src/adapter.c:read_index_list_complete() Number of controllers: 0

`lspci -knn | grep Net`:

`lsmod | grep btusb` - potentially worth mentioning I needed to manually start this module with modprobe:

btusb                  65536  0
btrtl                  24576  1 btusb
btbcm                  20480  1 btusb
btintel                32768  1 btusb
bluetooth             712704  11 btrtl,btintel,btbcm,bnep,btusb

`rfkill list`:

0: phy0: Wireless LAN
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no

`dmesg | grep blue` comes back empty. Here's `dmesg` where it loads the wifi driver:

Notably, here's what I see with `lsusb`:

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Some searching tells me I should probably be seeing `8087:0029 Intel Corp.` here.

Where to go from here? Cheers smile

Re: [Solved] No bluetooth from AX200

See the edit at the top, it's a hardware problem. It seems to have stopped happening to me entirely now for some reason.

Re: [Solved] No bluetooth from AX200

It isn't fixed for me, regardless of how many cold boots I perform.

I get an "hci0: Found device firmware: intel/ibt-20-1-3.sfi" message in `dmesg`, and `lsusb` shows "Intel Corp. AX200 Bluetooth", but the bluez stack doesn't (always*) show a controller, and scanning _never_ finds any bluetooth devices.  (*) Last night, before I gave up on this for the night and shut the computer off, I had a controller. This morning, I don't.

I have a different, non-Intel-crap M.2 wifi board, but replacing it is beyond my comfort (or interest) level, and I'd like to get this one working before I disassemble the device that far and figure out where the soldered antenna leads are connected.  Does anyone have a suggested software fix for this?

Re: [Solved] No bluetooth from AX200

This topic is three years old and marked [solved], Please do not necrobump.

Instead, start a new topic (which you can marked solved when you find a solution) and link back to this one if you think it still applies.

Closing.
