A few people commented on my previous post asking if I knew how to get the n80 working with bluetooth. File transfer works out of the box using gnome-obex-server, but the modem was a little more tricky. The chat scripts seemed to not get any response.

Turns out, nokia have changed the bluetooth channel from 1 to 2, as sdptool reveals:

~$ sdptool browse xx:xx:xx:xx

…..

Service Name: Dial-Up Networking
Service RecHandle: 0×10008
Service Class ID List:
“Dialup Networking” (0×1103)
Protocol Descriptor List:
“L2CAP” (0×0100)
“RFCOMM” (0×0003)
Channel: 2
Language Base Attr List:
code_ISO639: 0×454e
encoding: 0×6a
base_offset: 0×100
Profile Descriptor List:
“Dialup Networking” (0×1103)
Version: 0×0100

So, if you want to get it working, just change your /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf to a new channel:

rfcomm2 {
bind yes;
# Bluetooth address of the device
device xx:xx:xx:xx;
# RFCOMM channel for the connection
channel 2;
# Description of the connection
comment “Example Bluetooth device”;
}
