Hi,

im unable to initiate Bluetooth pairing on my TV

settings

bluetooth settings

Add device

The screen comes up with “Searching for accessories” but never comes back with anything (even with a nothing found).

Ive tried iPad, nvidia game controller, android phone.

- I was able to pair the phone by adding from the phone end, but it subsequently can’t connect. (Can’t do that with the controller!)

- the remote is paired and working fine

sw version is 8.0.0 ... I didn’t try before the recent update.

broken or buggy?

Ok for the Nvidia Controller... But the pairing with the Phones for?

From the Phones, for sending an image or video, you can try the Cast (Google Foto fir example) if you are in the same Network...

Phones I don't think so... There is no reason to pair a phone via Bluetooth...

I’m not sure why you’re persisting with this issue over a phone. The TV never comes back from “searching for devices”. This is the problem, not what device I’m using to test with... it doesn’t find anything.

Even if there is no point in pairing a phone, it should still see it.

I do not insist on telephone problems but on the impossibility of connecting the TV to a telephone like an Headphone or Controller...
