Bluetooth is up and running. My android smartphone and the PC are paired. The BT interface on the PC is set to be visible. I can transfer files over BT between PC/dolphin and my smatphone. But i can't pair the both devices in KDE Connect. They can't see eachother. If it's really work over BT, what a'm doing wrong ? Must KDE Connect be separatly compiled with BT support ?

KDE Connect version is:
Code: Select all
kdeconnect            1.4-0xneon+18.04+bionic+build24
kdeconnect-plasma      1.3.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1
Android App: 1.13.7


Hello, did you have solved your problem?

kde.org-User PM for me:
Nope, I'm afraid not. Apparently KDE Connect has an experimental Bluetooth backend but it is not enabled in production builds currently.

honestly I think the person didn't actually have bluetooth working. I tried it and it is disabled in the main app unless built for it and it is disabled for android.
