Arch Linux

Description: After upgrading bluez, bluez-libs and bluez-utils from version 5.41-2 to version 5.42-1 I am no longer able to send files from my Android devices (cell phone and tablet) to my notebook (Dell XPS 13, model 9343, with Intel wifi+bluetooth card). (The Android devices are marked as "Trusted".) I am able to send files from the computer to the Android devices, but not the other way around.


Additional info:
* package version(s)

bluez, bluez-libs and bluez-utils to version 5.42-1

* config and/or log files etc.

Note: I noticed that my last successful file transfer from my Android devices to my notebook was on September 26, 2016. I then noticed that on that day Bluez was updated:

[2016-09-26 13:11] [ALPM] upgraded bluez-utils (5.41-2 -> 5.42-1)
[2016-09-26 13:11] [ALPM] upgraded bluez-libs (5.41-2 -> 5.42-1)
[2016-09-26 13:11] [ALPM] upgraded bluez (5.41-2 -> 5.42-1)

I then downgraded bluez, bluez-libs and bluez-utils to version 5.41-2 and I can now send files from my cell phone and tablet to my notebook again. Hence, I believe there is a problem with version 5.42.1 of Bluez. With that installed bluetooth is functional except for one thing: the computer does not receive files over bluetooth.


Steps to reproduce:

Using version 5.42-1 of bluez, bluez-libs and bluez-utils pair an Android device to the computer and try to send a file from the Android device to the computer (not the other way around).
