DetailsDescription:
I'm trying to use my old Nokia 6021 as bluetooth modem. After updating to bluez5 I'm getting the next error message in gnome-bluetooth GUI: Method "Connect" with signature "s" on interface "org.bluez.Serial" doesn't exist According to Bluetooth_GPRS_Howto in archwiki I tried configuring it via command line. As /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf doesn't exists for bluez5 I used the next command to create rf binding: rfcomm bind hci0 <phone bluetooth MAC> And it worked for bluez 5.9 and linux 3.11. Recently I updated to bluez 5.12 and linux 3.12. And RF binding stopped working. Additional info: * package versions: bluez 5.12 linux 3.12.5 gnome-bluetooth 3.10.0 * config and/or log files: Steps to reproduce: 1) - Pair Nokia series 40 phone via bluetooth. - Check "Connect to internet using DUN" - Verify that the next message appears in system journal: gnome-session[1449]: ** (gnome-control-center:1751): WARNING **: dun_connect_cb: DUN error: Method "Connect" with signature "s" on interface "org.bluez.Serial" doesn't exist 2) - Create RF binding with command: rfcomm bind hci0 <phone bluetooth MAC> - Connect to internet with wvdial specifying modem /dev/rfcomm. - Verify that output is the following: --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61 --> Cannot get information for serial port. ... --> Cannot open /dev/rfcomm0: Transport endpoint is not connected Also the next messages I found if system journal: kernel: Bluetooth: TIOCGSERIAL is not supported I'll provide any additional information if needed. |

rfcomm bind hci0 <phone bluetooth MAC>
by
rfcomm connect hci0 <phone bluetooth MAC>
and now it's working with wvdial. Strange that before only bind was enough.
Only GUI problem remains:
Method "Connect" with signature "s" on interface "org.bluez.Serial" doesn't exist
Workaround presented above applies for wvdial, but NetworkManager (ModemManager) fails with:
WARNING **: dun_connect_cb: DUN error: Method "Connect" with signature "s" on interface "org.bluez.Serial" doesn't exist
I've also noticed that after pairing phone over bluetooth there is no new /dev to use.
I can test fixes as I'm relying often on GPRS connection via BT.
