I wonder if this has anything to do with new switch update or the fix for that update. Has your switch updated to the 10.0 update?
It has , but I have another switch on older version and it has the same issue. Also it was working for hours until I suspect an ubuntu update happened. The switch didn't change in that time
You can check if an update has actually occurred if you open the /var/log/dpkg.log
file. You should be able to see what changed and then find what broke.
I even re formatted the hdd and reinstall from the same image I used a few months back, and it still failed, i'm guessing ubuntu did some kind of firmware change to my bluetooth chip or changed some bios setting I have no idea at this point why no matter what I do I can't leave (by any means) on any switch. Trying to get an image of ubuntu on my raspi now
That's incredibly odd, I don't think Ubuntu would update the Bluetooth firmware unless you did a reboot. That may be possible then. May I ask what laptop you're running it on?
Could you open bluetoothctl
in another terminal. Run joycontrol, and then put the full output of both joycontrol and bluetoothctl here?
Have you tried the reconnect option without opening the Change Grip/Order menu?
Maybe rather try Raspian on the pi instead of Ubuntu. There was an issue here where the connection didn't work with Ubuntu on the Raspberry Pi. It would probably require more setup.
Also someone also had the same issue that the connection dropped almost immediately and it worked once he used an usb Bluetooth adapter.
That does not explain why it was working before though.
TO juanPotato's point I may have restarted the computer... I can't recall its a dell latitude 7480
And I did try the reconnect option too, get the exact same peer reset connection error. Downloading raspbian now, I'd use a usb adapter if I had one but amazon is slow.... lol hopefully this works on my pi3
Oh and JuanPotato, i'm getting the output from both app windows now
I did a output capture of both devices before and after pressing home on the switch(or leaving the sync menu) joycontrol_beforeHome.txt Bluetoothctl-afterHome.txt Bluetoothctl-beforeHome.txt joycontrol_afterHome.txt
I have the same issue on my jetson nano with an intel 8265AC wireless network adapter. But after adding an usb Bluetooth adapter, the connection goes well. Have no idea where the problem is. I was using a switch lite, haven't tried on a standard switch.
I wonder if certain bluetooth modules just don't work well. I find it really odd that it disconnects after leaving the pairing page. @mart1nro Do you think it could have anything to do with certain bluetooth modules not allowing the ability to modify certain attributes? I don't even know if that is a thing, but if different bluetooth modules behave differently then I guess it might be
Thats the only conclusion I can think of, and whats weird is it was working for many many reconnects then I took a break and when I came back (maybe after a system/firmware update it failed). I was/am working on a interpreter for the program to do time skips from shiney frames, and now a TASbot compiler for it. so good news/bad news, I got my program to work on my raspi3, but after a few minutes of button script it tends to skip or miss send a signal here and there which is a problem if every button press is key. I am playing with buffering teh waits a bit more
I don't imagine a bluetooth connection would be the best in terms of precise input timing for TASbot.
I see that now, and may turn my eyes to figuring out how to emulating in a similar way a usb controller. any recommendations are appreciated. THANKS to all for your help!
I actually have already found a couple resources that may help you with this.

WOW man that's amazing, thanks so much
You're welcome! Another thing to keep in mind is that you may not be able to get frame-perfect inputs even with these tools, so I leave you with one last link.
I'm not sure how out of date this is, (it's only a few months old) but its something to keep in mind.
@mart1nro Do you think it could have anything to do with certain bluetooth modules not allowing the ability to modify certain attributes?
My guess is that some cheap bluetooth adapters aren't implemented well. But I'm also no expert in that regard.
Interestingly I see this exact behavior on Debian 10 with both my Thinkpad x270 built-in bluetooth and my Gigabyte motherboard on my desktop's built-in bluetooth. Works fine with my $10 usb bluetooth though.
Having the same issue with built-in Bluetooth module on lenovo ideapad 320, running EOS 5.1
Can confirm the issue with a Dell Latitude 7390 2-in-1 (8087:0a2b
), which is called Intel Bluetooth Device
. It seems to comes from the bundledIntel Corporation Wireless 8265 / 8275 (rev 78)
chipset.
Issue is not present on a Lenovo ThinkPad X220 (0a5c:217f
), which is a BCM2045B (BDC-2.1)
from Broadcom.
@s0r00t (or anyone else affected by this) Would you be willing to get a bluetooth wireshark capture while you connect to the switch and then leave the pair screen on both devices? It might help find what is causing the issue.
You can send the capture file to my email on my github profile.
I've sent you a dump via mail.
If any contributor needs it too, feel free to ask :)
I'm having the same issues, every time I leave the change grip/order page joycontrol disconnects with the error message
joycontrol.transport write::155 ERROR - [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer
Just a guess: Could this be caused by the MTU size limits on the PC/Bluetooth device? After looking at my Wireshark capture, it seems that all the packet sizes are at most 23 Bytes long, which is probably the default Linux limit or the Bluetooth device's limit. It's possible that Switch wants to use a larger MTU to communicate with the controllers after they're paired, therefore the connection drop due to different MTU sizes.
It is pretty weird though considering that it used to work perfectly and that it works in pairing mode.
Note: Switch uses BLE 4.1, which has a max MTU size of 512 bytes, and that's probably what they are using
Update: I tried using hciconfig
to change the MTU to 512, but it doesn't seem to do anything, the packets are still at most 23 bytes.
Yeah the packets are small and consistent just on their own
I disabled my laptops bluetooth and got a bluetooth usb adapter (took a while to get from amazon) that fixed the problem I was having with disconnecting. The truly odd thing is I was using the same internal adapter for over a day without issue before it became one, I have to imagine something changed on my system to break it. If its a driver, or firmware I may never know
It may be helpful for others in the future if we can make a list of known working usb adapters and known broken ones.
I wanna try using a different flavor of linux (maybe I;ll make a live usb, any recommendations) and see if that makes a difference, it would confirm if its firmware or drivers/os modules
Tried elemntery os 5.1.4 on live boot usb, and re cloned the project, it works fine, there is no disconect. SO its not device or firmware related, it may be driver or os related
Could you get the linux kernel version uname -r
and the bluez version bluetoothd -v
on both OS's?
So I just rebooted back into my normal ubuntu (dellinux 5.3.0-51 generic) and re enable the built in bluetooth from bios and re cloned the repo, I decided to see if It worked, it did. I have no idea if disabling the dive and re enabling it did it or if a newer version of the code fixed the issue, but I am up and running again with the same device and os that caused the issue the first time. BUt when I disconnected and tried again it failed again. investigating some stuff
ok so it seems somehow I broke it again, even on liveusb... but when I have the app connect tro my switch on verison 3.0.0 it still works, and I can reconnect as much as I want with no issues. after doing that connection I still can't reconnect to my 10.0.2 switch, so maybe version 10 has something to do with it. Honestly I have no idea any more. But I do know that when I use the usb bluetooth device with the internal one disabled in bios I have no problems what so ever
Looking at this behavior of working first but stops working after a while, could this be related to whether the emulated controller is paired to the Switch? Maybe the Switch handles it differently when the controller is already paired, and in this part maybe joycontrol didn't handle something properly so the connection breaks? Just a guess.
Although it's still not working for me, perhaps someone else could try to isolate this issue by erasing the pairing history on the Switch and on Linux.
I also have this issue, although with a slightly different error message

I am on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (not a VM) on an HP Spectre and was able to pair and repair successfully several times, until I rebooted my computer, and now I am encountering this issue for the first time. Kernel is 5.3.0-51-generic, bluetooth is 5.48.
I tried removing the Switch's pairing history, and a fresh checkout of the repo, but no luck, the issue is still occurring. I will try some other things.
I tried uninstalling and re-installing the associated packages, but no success there either.
I have done some further experimenting with some bizarre results. I have multiple laptops, and so far have been able to connect to my switch for only one session with each one, before encountering this issue. The first laptop I connected with was an Ubuntu 18.04 native installation, so I then tried using a Ubuntu 20.04 live USB and booting into that, but was unable to re-establish a connection. I took the same live USB, plugged it into my second laptop, and was again able to connect for one session to my switch. Worrying that I would lose the ability to connect to my switch again, I did not reboot, but by the time I tried again 2 days later, I was unable to connect to the switch. Rebooting into that same live USB, which would be considered a fresh machine every time, never did allow me to connect to the switch again a second time, which matches with my experience with the first laptop. I will try again with further laptops, but it is awfully strange that each laptop works only once, no matter whether the OS is fresh or not.
I'm having the same issue. Can confirm removing bluetooth history on both sides doesn't work. I'm wondering if changing bluetooth device address would help.
I'm having the same issue. It stopped working after I let my computer go to sleep mode with this error :
cmd >> [14:48:05] joycontrol.transport write::155 ERROR - [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer [14:48:05] joycontrol.protocol connection_lost::117 ERROR - Connection lost. [14:48:05] joycontrol.protocol input_report_mode_full::209 ERROR - [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer

I'm running into the same, or similar issue. I was able to get the thing to pair one time and have it work, but trying to reconnect after that never works. I tried with a usb bluetooth adapter and that too worked but only once, it was unable to reconnect.
Figured out what causes disconnections triggered Switch-side. https://switchbrew.org/wiki/BTM_services#SetSlotMode https://switchbrew.org/wiki/Bluetooth_Driver_services#SetTsi
With a bt-device which triggers an error Switch-side with Mode Change Event
, explicitly using command HCI_Sniff_Mode prior to that fixes it (and no more disconnections due to this). I'm not sure what the proper way to use that command is (with BlueZ/{...}). This is not needed with bt-devices which don't trigger that error.
Switch-side uses that command with the following parameters (at least in one case, not sure if the other ones are used):
Sniff Max Interval: 8 slots (5 msec)
Sniff Min Interval: 8 slots (5 msec)
Sniff Attempt: 1 (0.625 msec)
Timeout: 0 slots (0 msec)
@yellows8 The only way I can find to use HCI_Sniff_Mode in bluez is to use sniff_mode_cp. That struct doesn't have an associated function so you need to make one like hci_exit_park_mode.
Related to this, I tried to figure out other bluetooth issues in the past but didn't make much progress. Like the lagging that happens when multiple devices are connected or disconnections happening after a long time. I don't know much about switch internals but I did notice the mode change event.
That requires the connection handle though, probably couldn't (?) use sockets with it. :/
Haven't checked how long it stays connected with Sniff Mode, other than verifying that the initial disconnect doesn't occur.
I'm experiencing this issue too and Im using a raspberry pi 4b with the on board bluetooth. Im thinking of buying a bluetooth usb dongle, would any generic dongle work?
That requires the connection handle though, probably couldn't (?) use sockets with it. :/

How did you execute this HCI_Sniff_Mode command? Did you have to homebrew your switch or did you use something like hcitool in bluez?

It's part of {private stuff}, haven't bothered to extract the sniff-mode stuff into a dedicated script.
The sniff mode is getting canceled because Bluetooth sockets default to force-active mode, which will cancel sniff mode every time a packet is sent. This is what you want:

This is great, thanks @marcan! I'm yet to test this but do you know if it helps the issue where multiple controllers connected cause joycontrol to lag? #31
I have noticed the entire connection process is a lot more reliable/responsive with that set, so quite possibly. It seems it really doesn't like non-sniff mode.
I was working on your code, and all of the sudden after what may have been dozens of successful pairs and tests I started getting this weird error every time I exited the pairing menu. I even made a new folder re cloned the repo and re installed the package, but I still have this joycontrol.transport_read::105 Error - No data received joycontrol.protocol connectyyion_lost::112 Error
I have attached two screens. I get the same error on both switches I don't know what I could have done to my ubuntu laptop system to have caused this to recur even on a clean clone. Please help if you can
