Bluetooth turns on automatically on start

[AniketMandal]

I have currently installed Manjaro Gnome Edition on my laptop and am a beginner in linux. On every bootup I see that bluetooth is turned on automatically. Can anyone provide a solution for this?

Try to execute gsettings set org.blueman.plugins.powermanager auto-power-on false (is needed once).
You can also try to edit /etc/bluetooth/main.conf and make sure that AutoEnable=false is uncommented (without # in front).

sudo systemctl disable bluetooth.service

try this

The bluetooth radio itself will remain active indipendently from the bluetooth service.

This one didn’t work out for me. I uncommented the line but still the bluetooth kept turning itself on for every boot.

This one worked. Thank you so much.

after doing sudo systemctl disable bluetooth.service
i got a pulseaudio error: pulseaudio[1005]: GetManagedObjects() failed:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply
which i fixed with this post instructions:

Journalctl pulseaudio error after latest update

Check if PulseAudio has any active modules related to Bluetooth pacmd dump | grep module-bluetooth PulseAudio usually has 2 modules loaded by default module-bluetooth-policy and module-bluetooth-discover to disable the modules, use this command to add comment tags to the configuration file sudo sed -Ei '/load-module module-bluetooth*/s/^/#/' /etc/pulse/default.pa then reboot or restart system, or use this command to restart PulseAudio systemctl --user restart pulseaudio
