Created page with "===I get an error message when I click "Set Dongle Address", what can I do? (Linux+bluetooth)===  Some bt dongles are not compatible. Bluetoot..."

New page

===I get an error message when I click "Set Dongle Address", what can I do? (Linux+bluetooth)=== 
Some bt dongles are not compatible. [[Bluetooth_dongle|Try another one]].

===I get an error message when I click "Set Dongle Address", what can I do? (Linux+bluetooth)=== 
Some bt dongles are not compatible. [[Bluetooth_dongle|Try another one]].

===I get connection errors, what can I do? (Linux+bluetooth)=== 
Make sure the sixaxis was already paired with your PS3 (the sixaxis should be able to turn on the ps3 remotely). 
Make sure the sixaxis is not a fake one: [http://code.google.com/p/diyps3controller/issues/detail?id=74#c18 link]. 
Make sure to turn your sixaxis off before starting emu: unplug the usb cable, and if it does not turn off by itself, press the PS3 button until it turns off. 
If it still doesn't work, [[Bluetooth_dongle|try another dongle]].

===How can I set my old bdaddr back? (Linux+bluetooth)=== 
Start a terminal: Click on the Ubuntu Dash, type "terminal" in the search bar, and click on the terminal icon. 
Then type:
sudo bdaddr -i hciX YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY
Replace X with the dongle index (0, 1, 2...), and YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY with the bdaddr to set. If you have multiple dongles and if you are not sure about the dongle index, type bdaddr -i hciX to see the current bdaddr of the dongle with index = X.

		+	====<span id="18"></span>Why isn't there a bluetooth version for windows?==== <!--T:11-->
		+	The windows bluetooth stack is weak. It does not provide the low-level access to bluetooth that is required to emulate a sixaxis.
		+
		+	====<span id="5b"></span>Why can't we use any bluetooth address?==== <!--T:12-->
		+	A ps3 doesn't allow communications from an unknown bluetooth address, it only allows communications from bluetooth addresses of paired devices.<br />
		+	Two bluetooth devices are paired means that each device knows the address of the other, and each device allows communications from the other device.<br />
		+	Unpaired devices usually can't communicate. The bluetooth pairing is usually performed over bluetooth, but that's not the case for a sixaxis.<br />
		+	The sixaxis pairing is performed over usb: plug the male to mini usb cable, and press the PS button.
