Bluetooth connection issue

JohnWolf47

Hello,

I have installed GrapheneOS fresh on a google pixel 8a these days. At some point I tried to connect to a windows machine with bluetooth, and the connection fails. On the phone it says 'Connected' for 2-3 seconds, then it disconnects. The same behavior happens when I try to connect to an android phone: nothing phone 2a plus with latest updates.

Bluetooth connection does indeed work with my thinkpad l15 g1 running cachyos (arch distro) with kde plasma desktop environment.

I saw a bunch of other posts regarding bluetooth connection issues, but I don't know if they cover my case as well.

I have installed the stock android OS on the google pixel and the same behavior happens there as well, so it points out to an issue independent of GrapheneOS, likely related to Google Pixel 8a firmware or a hardware issue my device has with the bluetooth chip.
