PS4 controller pairs through BT but won't connect afterwards.

[vathomass]

Hi,

Firstly, many thanks for the great library. I opened this issue because I am facing the following connectivity problem when I try to connect a PS4 controller with an Arduino Uno through Bluetooth. In short, I am able to pair the two using PS4BT PS4(&Btd, PAIR); but I am unable to connect when using PS4BT PS4(&Btd);.

I am using the latest available library (version 1.6.2) and as for the hardware:

1. PS4 controller.
2. Arduino Uno R3 board.
3. USB host shield from elecrow.
4. Bluetooth dongle Esperanza EA159 USB Bluetooth 2.0 Adapter.

Steps I have tried:

1. PS4 controller works as expected when connected through USB cable to the host shield (tested using the PS4USB.ino).
2. PS4 controller works as expected when paired through Bluetooth (tested using the PS4BT.ino with the pairing option).
3. PS4 controller fails to connect through Bluetooth (tested using the PS4BT.ino without the pairing option).

Enabling the ENABLE_UHS_DEBUGGING in setting.h and the EXTRADEBUG in BTD.cpp produces the following output:

After a little digging (and zero understanding of the Bluetooth stack), it seems that something goes wrong after the Bluetooth dongle changes state to HCI_REMOTE_NAME_STATE, asking for the controller name. For some reason, the controller responds to the name request (the handled event is EV_REMOTE_NAME_COMPLETE) with error 0x0C (Command Disallowed according to the internet).

Any idea to what may be the issue or things that I can try to resolve it.

Same issue. When it tries to connect after pairing I get a "PS" , the push of the PS button, and then the controller turns back off due to lack of connect.

Nevermind figured it out. Kind of silly. When it connect it registers a press of the PS button, and in the example code the PS Button performs a disconnect.

Hi, ... Connection Failed: 10

After a little digging (and zero understanding of the Bluetooth stack), it seems that something goes wrong after the Bluetooth dongle changes state to `HCI_REMOTE_NAME_STATE`, asking for the controller name. For some reason, the controller responds to the name request (the handled event is `EV_REMOTE_NAME_COMPLETE`) with error `0x0C` (Command Disallowed according to the internet).

Any idea to what may be the issue or things that I can try to resolve it.

Found any solution to "Connection Failed: 10"?

Hi, not really. I pair the controller every time I want to use it.

Okay, if anyone ends up looking for same issue, it was solved with another BT dongle. I chose TRENDnet TBW-107UB.

And I changed: PS4BT PS4(&Btd, PAIR); To: PS4BT PS4(&Btd);

Worked for me.
