Hello William,

I’m sorry to hear about the Bluetooth issues you’re experiencing with your Colibri iMX6ULL module. Let’s go through some steps to help resolve this:

  1. Verify Hardware Compatibility: Ensure your module has integrated Bluetooth hardware or that you’re using a compatible external Bluetooth module.

  2. Check Bluetooth Service Status:

    • Run systemctl status bluetooth.service to confirm the service is active. If it’s not running, use journalctl -u bluetooth.service to check for errors.
  3. Driver and Firmware Verification:

    • Make sure the necessary Bluetooth drivers and firmware are included in your BSP. You might need to customize your Yocto build to include these if they’re missing.
    • Verify that Bluetooth support is enabled in the kernel configuration.
  4. Use Diagnostic Tools:

    • Use hciconfig to check the status of Bluetooth devices. If no devices are listed, there might be an issue with hardware detection or drivers.
  5. ConnMan Configuration:

    • Ensure ConnMan is configured to manage Bluetooth connections. You may need to adjust settings or restart the service.
  6. Review BSP 6 Changes:

    • Since Bluetooth worked with BSP 5, review any changes in BSP 6 that might affect Bluetooth, such as updates to the BlueZ stack or kernel modules.

By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the Bluetooth issue. I hope this helps, and please feel free to reach out if you have further questions.

Best regards,
