Hi to all

Someone know how to start/stop (switch on/off) bluetooth via CLI ? Already tried, but without success:

dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.jolla.Bluetooth /com/jolla/Bluetooth org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Set string:"enable"

Thanks

You can restart/stop/start the bluetooth.service, do you want that ? systemctl restart bluetooth.service

It's not what I need, I mean on/off BT like you do from the setting -> right upper corner...

I found that I can switch BT on with this command:

dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.jolla.Bluetooth /com/jolla/Bluetooth com.jolla.Bluetooth.startSession

but the problem is after 2 seconds it start switching BT off (you can see the running line on the top side of screen. If in this moment you will run this command:

dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.jolla.Bluetooth /com/jolla/Bluetooth com.jolla.Bluetooth.holdSession

it will stop it and BT stayed ON. But now I can't switch BT off, the "endSession" command not work :(
