Dell Vostro 3560 with BCM43142 adapter : bluetooth doesn't work
I installed the wireless driver using this instruction How do I install BCM43142 wireless drivers for Dell Vostro 3460/3560 and I have WiFi working. No problems here.
But unfortunately the bluetooth doesn't work. The ubuntu bar shows the bluetooth sign and I can turn the bluetooth on/off but I can't discover any devices. And I can't find my laptop when I turn visibility On. So, obviously bluetooth doesn't work.
I couldn't find the reports that blutooth can actually work with this adapter in Ubuntu. So, my question is: Is there anyone with BCM43142 adapter that have bluetooth working?
Thank You in advance.
PS. Ubuntu 12.10 x64
Update:
After some fiddling around with different drivers from different sources I managed to get bluetooth working. Not flawlessly but at least I can pair a device.
Bluetooth started working after installation of this package bt-bcm43142-onereic_0.0+20111116somerville2_amd64.deb
Originally I found this package on the disk with Ubuntu which came with the Laptop.
What this package does, it installs a firmware loader and a firmware itself. This firmware needs to get bluetooth working.
Still bluetooth sometimes doesn't work even with this package. But manual loading the firmware helps.
brcm_patchram_plus_usb --patchram /lib/firmware/BCM43142A0_001.001.011.0028.0036.hcd hci0
Also I found it strange that this package writes all different ids into /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id because only one from the list matches my device ID
bcm43142.conf:
install btusb /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install btusb && echo '0a5c 21d3' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id && echo '0a5c 21d7' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id && echo '0a5c 21e1' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id && echo '0a5c 21e3' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/btusb/new_id && hciconfig hci0 up && /usr/bin/brcm_patchram_plus_usb --patchram /lib/firmware/BCM43142A0_001.001.011.0028.0036.hcd hci0 &
My lsusb:
...
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0a5c:21d7 Broadcom Corp.
In conclusion: bluetooth works not nearly as good as in windows :( once I even got a complete crash of the system because of the btusb module. Luckily WiFi works perfectly :)

I had the same issue on an Asus X202E (BCM43142 chip): with Ubuntu 12.10 x64, I had to install wireless driver as described above. Which works for wifi... but not for BT.
Now switched to 13.04 x64 and had wireless working without the need of installing wifi driver, Bluetooh still not working.

In anycase, thanks for the post, it's a nice resume of the BCM43142 challenge in Ubuntu.

wireless 13.10 bluetooth asus x202e broadcom bcm43142
add a comment |
I had the same issue on an Asus X202E (BCM43142 chip): with Ubuntu 12.10 x64, I had to install wireless driver as described above. Which works for wifi... but not for BT.
Now switched to 13.04 x64 and had wireless working without the need of installing wifi driver, Bluetooh still not working.
I'll try this evening the bt-bcm43142 package and see if I can get my BT working.
In anycase, thanks for the post, it's a nice resume of the BCM43142 challenge in Ubuntu.
Update
I have just installed the above mentionned package, rebooted and I now have BT working and connecting to devices :)
For readers who might face the same issue, here are some command output before installing the package:
