bluetooth

The HiKey board includes built-in bluetooth® wireless technology 4.0 LE support.

To setup a bluetooth device open the bluetooth Manager from the Preferences menu. If a “bluetooth Turned Off” popup appears then select “Enable bluetooth”. Click on “Search” to search for devices. Try with your bluetooth audio and bluetooth keyboard/mouse. If you make the device trusted then this should operate over a reboot of the board.

The blue LED between the microUSB and the Type A USB on the front board edge indicates bluetooth activity.

Audio Device

bluetooth audio devices are supported on HiKey. Follow normal procedures of connecting a bluetooth device to connect to your board.

Once bluetooth sound sink is connected, you can open the LXMusic player from the Sound & Video menu. Create a playlist from your music files. Supported audio formats are .mp3 and .ogg. You should now be able to play from the LXMusic player.

NOTE: LXmusic uses xmms2 as the player backend, you may need to install xmms2 and related plugins if they are not installed, otherwise music may cannot be played.

$ sudo apt-get install xmms2 xmms2-plugin-*
