I have already provided my system info

[andreas85]

Have you already tried with kernel 5.10 ?

[ayush222006]

no I haven’t I am using kernel 5.15.12-1
as I recall my audio Bluetooth devices used to appear in manjaro a long time ago
but now they aren’t even appearing
in both Blueman and Blueberry Bluetooth manager

sure I will give it kernel 5.10 a try
hope it works
but nonetheless I would let you know the outcome after I have completed

thanks for the comment btw

Sound Server-2: PulseAudio v: 15.0 running: yes
  Sound Server-3: PipeWire v: 0.3.42 running: yes

please check the forum for several threads, actually pulseaudio and pipewire are active, that doesn’t function. you’re not the first one with that problem, there are several threads describing this problem.

[ayush222006]

(I have downloaded kernel 10 and restarted my pc But I am still usng kernel 15)
my bluetooth manager is now showing the bluetooth audio devices
and I am able to connect them
but they are getting disconnected after some time automatically
and my wifi is also working very slow sometimes it gets disconnected by itself

can you help me in this too
thanks bro looks like we have solved half of the problem

[ayush222006]

can you give me the link of those threads ???
It would be very grateful of you

[andreas85]

To get into kernel 5.10 you have to stop GRUB with ESC and to select kernel 5.10 manualy

[ayush222006]

my bluetooth problem have been solved by the way
I installed kernel 15 and removed kernel 10
and restarted my laptop
now my Bluetooth is working without any performance drop and other network instability
