[SOLVED] Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 No Bluetooth

After a pacman failure, and a kernel panic, which was fixed in the previous post, I have now found another issue related with my bluetooth adapter Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 802.11ac. The WI-FI seems to work perfectly fine on it, but the Bluetooth refuses to do so. I have tried reinstalling various packages such as linux-firmware, and bluez, but nothing seems to work, but running lspci displays the adapter just fine, while the bluetoothctl refuses to detect the controller with the error message, "No default controller available." Let me know if there is any additional information needed smile

Re: [SOLVED] Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 No Bluetooth

Did you already reinstall all packages from the aborted transaction? Otherwise since it was a kernel update the update might have also caused the issue on it's own. To check that you could for example try if it works with the "linux-lts" package.

How can you check what packages might have failed? I have tried pacman -Syu multiple times.

There are tools like https://github.com/Edu4rdSHL/archlinux-pkgrecover to fix certain transaction, but generally you can check the output of "pacman -Qkk" and friends.

Re: [SOLVED] Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 No Bluetooth

Is there a filter I can use to quickly reinstall all the packages? It seems that I have a lot of checksum keys verification failures and some packages missing a file.

Re: [SOLVED] Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 No Bluetooth

re-install all packages
But first let's see

sudo LC_ALL=C pacman -Qkk | grep -v ', 0 altered files' | grep -v backup

The system now fails to load after running:

sudo pacman -S $(sudo pacman -Qnq)

I have fixed the previous problem by regenerating my initramfs.

Re: [SOLVED] Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 No Bluetooth

Not even joking when I say this but this reddit post helped me out!
All I had to do was completely unpower my computer for a minute, and Bluetooth magically started working again like nothing ever happened.
Somebody PLEASE investigate this black magic!

Re: [SOLVED] Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 No Bluetooth

Nope, the machine however did have a windows system prior to switching to Linux
