No default controller available

hey everyone this is my first post on the manjaro forums
so i had this problem quite a while and i couldn’t connect my earbuds (xiaomi) to my laptop apperently i followed some archwiki topics ( bluetooth,bluetooth headsets) but nothing didn’t help
when i ran this command

 /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd -n -d  

i got some bluetooth logs and with this at last

D-Bus setup failed: Connection ":1.150" is not allowed to own the service "org.bluez" due to security policies in the configuration file
bluetoothd[31669]: src/main.c:main() Unable to get on D-Bus

i did had bluetooth before hand tho, i guess it’s only when i tried to powersave my battery that this issue occured
( i went to cpu and let the governor policy be powersaving also modifing the max of each thread)
i also ran this command

lsmod | grep bluetooth

outcome

bluetooth             733184  14 btrtl,btintel,btbcm,bnep,btusb,rfcomm
ecdh_generic           16384  1 bluetooth

but the rfkill doesn’t show this

You need root privileges. Run comman via sudo.

oh my bad

D-Bus setup failed: Name already in use
bluetoothd[33992]: src/main.c:main() Unable to get on D-Bus

here you go sir this is what i got

:+1: Welcome to Manjaro! :+1:

  1. Please read this:
    How to provide good information
    and press the three dots below your post and press the :pencil2: to give us more information so we can see what’s really going on.
    Now we know the symptom of the disease, but we need some more probing to know where the origin lies… :grin:
  2. An inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width would be the minimum required information for us to be able to help you. (Personally Identifiable Information like serial numbers and MAC addresses will be filtered out by the above command)
    Also, please copy-paste that output in-between 3 backticks ``` at the beginning and end of the code/text.

:+1:

P.S. If you want to notify me that you did provide this information, please :heart: this message and I’ll come back and have another look.

thank you for the insight

According to your inxi output you don’t even have a bluetooth controller, so could you:

  • boot a Manjaro Live USB
  • provide another inxi from there as a response to this request?

:thinking:

my bad for the late reply i just don’t have an usb so if there was a way to help me with this i appreciate it

anyone please

That was 1 day ago: We cannot help you without you booting a Manjaro Live USB and provide another inxi because now it looks like:

  • Your machine never had a Bluetooth controller
  • It’s broken

So before we make you buy a new one, we want to be sure!

Furthermore, bumping is against the rules and this is your first and only warning: Next time your thread will be closed without any further warning if you post meaningless comments like:

  • So?
  • Anyone please?
  • Bump.

:crossed_fingers:

update:
the bluetooth just returned this morning idk what happened exactly or what
