I don’t have any Shelly Bluetooth proxies so I can’t comment on how well that would work

#

But I do have at least 2 Shelly’s running esphome

twilit arch
#

So i could reflash the shelly with esp home and that should do the trick?

#

Well maybe someone with some experience on shelly can confirm that

#

Should

#

The bigggest question for me would be the antennae and how well it worked for GATT

#

It should work as well or better for receiving advertisements

I just added an ESP32 board to my home assistant in order to control the GOVEE lights that I have in my room. When I go to the "devices and services" screen and control the light from the "Govee Bluetooth Light" integreation it works, but for some reason I am not having the same luck in my "Overview" screen. Is there anyway to make it more reliable?

Hi,

I am new to Home Assistant and I would like to add my Bluetooth speakers to my Home Assistant Green. Is that possible? I have already set up the ESP32 for Bluetooth, but I can't identify my devices. If I can't do it via Bluetooth, can you please tell me the proper way to do it?

Thanks for your attention. I am looking forward to your reply.

Hello all, trying to use the integrated bluetooth on my motherboard but have hit a snag and it says this in the log

Here we can read :

These adapters do not have a reset pin. If they stop responding, there is currently no way for the kernel to reset them automatically. A generic USB reset for these adapters has been introduced in Linux kernel 6.1 and later.
What does it mean ?

#

Does it mean there is an hardware reset on other adapters ? But not on them ?

#

Realtek dongles are prone to crashing

#

Without the capability to crash they may fail in a matter of minutes

#

You’ll need to unplug and plug back in every few minutes for it to stay functional

#

Other Realtek dongles also crash often, but can but automatically reset by HA over usb using this reset pin.

#

You still have gaps in your data every few minutes. But for some applications that might be acceptable and preferable to creating e-waste

#

Sorry, english is not my native language so i dont understand it all

#

What is a reset pin ?

fringe field
#

It’s like unplugging and plugging in again

#

But the computer can do it for you

#

But only if the Bluetooth chip has the write wiring

#

You don’t need to understand though. If you have Realtek, buy something else. If you don’t have Realtek, don’t buy Realtek.

Hello everybody, I need some help. I had my HASS on a Pi which died, so I moved everything over to the NUC. I didn't really use Bluetooth (I tracked my own phone to say if I was "home" or not, but that's about it), but I decided to have some fun with room detection and the like- I've set up some esp32s and flashed one with the default bluetooth proxy ESPHome configuration, added the bluetooth BLE proxy YAML to the other. However, there is no Bluetooth integration on my dashboard - if I try to manually add Bluetooth, it says "No unconfigured Bluetooth adapters found. There are 0 ignored adapters.". So what am I missing?

devout hearth
unreal plover
#

That makes sense, thank you! So how can I best test that it's actually working? It looks like I need to know device uuids in order to use ibeacon. Is there a good general application to scan Bluetooth devices?

devout hearth
#

Well, if you don't have any device in the bluetooth integration, but you can detect supported bluetooth devices in other integrations, then you would know at least one bluetooth proxy was working. If you want to verify on a per-device basis, I got some input that might still be helpful here: #bluetooth-archived message

As for ibeacon, I'm not sure what you mean, as I don't think that is an integration. If you mean bluetooth presence detection, there is some sort of bluetooth device presence detection available, but it doesn't work for devices that use private/rotating addresses without extra steps (or possibly extra steps plus a separate integration), but I don't do any of that, so I can't really say more than that with any reasonable degree of certainty.

#

This feels like a stupid question but it's not clear to me after reading the docs... does the EspHome Blutooth proxy repeat signals on the Bluetooth radio, or does it convert them and pass them over Wifi/Ethernet?
https://esphome.io/components/bluetooth_proxy.html

#

My goal is to get some mi flora plant sensors hooked up but they are quite far from the HA hub. I can run ethernet there though.

rotund sail
#

The latter - over the network

safe spindle
#

Groovy. That should work well then. I can have a small switch out in the workshop with two proxies on it and should be good to go.

#

I started trying an ESP32 instead of my Switchbot Hub to control my Lock Pro. Unlike the Hub, the ESP32 has been very fast and consistent for me. Always in the 1-1.5 range where as the hub takes 4-5 seconds sometimes.

#

Why are these super cheap ESP32's working better than Switchbot's overpriced hubs? I'm not using their hubs as a Matter bridge anymore because of response or speed issues.

# unreal plover Hello everybody, I need some help. I had my HASS on a Pi which died, so I moved ...

If you install and configure the "Private BLE Device" integration (it's built-in) that will give you some basic sensors for tracking home/away status for your phones. You'll need to read the docs to learn how to get your "IRK" for them though, it might be a bit of a process for you depending on your situation, but it's by far the most reliable way to get phones tracked in HA. If you want to dig deeper with room presence etc then my Bermuda project might be of interest (but probably only once you get a few proxies set up) https://github.com/agittins/bermuda/ - it also uses the Private BLE Device integration to give you extra features for iOS and Android phones, watches etc.

fringe field
#

If it was a tiny Linux box then quite simply bluez is slow as heck unless you do a lot of work (HA has done a lot of work to get performance where it is - the first homekit implementation on Linux used to take over 30s just to connect and now it’s comparable to Mac)

#

If it was an esp32 then there are like 3 Bluetooth stacks I know of. Esphome ditched one because it wasn’t efficient enough (why we use esp-idf for proxies). We also offload advertisement parsing to HA and coalesce the packets to make that offloading more efficient. Their implementation would be forced to do that work locally. They have to process all advertisements enough to reject non switchbots and there are lots of beacons every second

#

im new with all this and wondering if i would need a bluetooth dongle for my HA green when trying to connect something llike the govee temperature ble sensors? they come with a gateway, is that something i can use instead of a dongle somehow?

fringe field
#

the govee_ble integration in HA requires a bluetooth dongle OR one of the supported bluetooth proxies (mostly esphome or shelly)

round niche
#

thanks for the quick reply

spare geyser
#

@fringe field I know nothing, but thanks for giving me some insight on why it may work the way it does.

#

Another interesting thing I found out. While controls are consistently faster with an ESP32, status updates faster using the Switchbot Hub via Matter.

#

So I'll keep them connected over Matter because I have some automations that use lock and unlock.

fringe field
#

i don't know enough about the switchbot integration to speculate there.

#

if they are using GATT notifications, its a bit of a PITA

#

GATT requires maintaining a connection

#

which is bad for battery but also BLE likes to disconnect a lot

#

homekit devices use GATT notifications and also disconnect every 30s to a minute

#

if they are using advertisements, theres no reason why we should be slower

spare geyser
#

Yeah every Homekit BT lock I've seen reviewed talk about how it can take 4-5 seconds to work from a cold start.

#

As for their hub vs an ESP32. I'm surprised because manually turning the knob is mostly near instant with the hub.

#

The ESP32 mostly takes 1-2 seconds, sometimes 3-5 seconds to finally update the status.

fringe field
#

so, looks like its putting the data in advertisements

#

the only reason those would take 3-5 seconds is if the switchbot wasn't sending the data out quickly enough or if something was wrong with the ble -> esp32 -> HA path

#

2nd seems more likely, as i'd expect 1st to impact the hub too

#

unless it's e.g. using GATT notifications

#

we see with some xiaomi devices, they actually stop broadcasting sensor data if there is an active BLE connection

#

esp32 only has one radio, sharing WiFi and BLE on one radio could cause what you are seeing

spare geyser
#

Thanks for the possible explanations. I just found it interesting how it could be faster to do one thing, but not another.

#

I possess no technical knowledge about this stuff though so thanks for the explanations lol.

fringe field
#

the "best" experience is with ethernet based esphome proxies

#

theres some additional tuning you can do for those too

#

i think there might be some benefit to passive mode in that setup too

#

i think some people run pairs, one in passive and one in active

spare geyser
#

Okay I'll keep it in mind. I don't have Ethernet running throughout my home but one of my 5 mesh routers pretty spread out.

#

So I could just test it with the closest one whose Ethernet port isn't being used for anything.

Have a weird thing with some bluetooth trackers. The tracker will only broadcast a programed ID when vibration is detected. HA won't let go off it until there is a reboot of HA. Meaning it always reports status of it even after the tracker has stopped broadcasting until a reboot. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

# worldly crescent Have a weird thing with some bluetooth trackers. The tracker will only broadcas...

Which tracker are you using, is it the bluecharms one? Does it broadcast a particular iBeacon uuid all the time, but then also sends another one on movement? Which integration(s) are you using for tracking?
I don't know how the native iBeacon integration would treat them, but in Bermuda it reacts to the mac address, so once it gets the movement uuid it will treat both it and the normal uuid the same, being present for as long as one of them is broadcasting - because Bermuda ties the uuids to the mac address, and I think the advertisements get lumped together.

Xiaomi smart scale? Mine works with HA Green via https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/xiaomi_ble. Initially it was unreliable, presumed due to distance, but I replaced the original bluetooth dongle with https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0CTHKPMWX and it has worked for a couple of months since. Occasionally misses a reading but staying on the scale for 5 seconds after it stops flashing seems to work. Amazon says currently unavailable but try another long range BLE.

Oof yeah, it was the range. Funny though, the RPI with inbuilt BLE was farther away than now with my server.

It’s quite common for the internal Bluetooth on the pi to not be up to it for IoT. Sometimes the chip hangs and the only way to fix it is to remove power from the pi entirely. Sometimes this can happen over and over again. That’s a pi or driver problem, so not something that can be fixed.

#

We also have a lot of users struggling with range - things barely working even a metre away.

#

If the device you are trying to use with HA is actually supported, and it’s in range, then all you can do is get a usb dongle (and ideally a usb extension cable to help mitigate against interference) or get an esphome Bluetooth proxy

That config flow discovery is driven by enumerating bluez

There’s no standard light bulb protocol in the Bluetooth spec, so there’s a chance your Bluetooth is working fine and that bulb is just not supported.

Hi all, got directed here from #integrations-archived. Currently running the https://github.com/home-assistant/core/tree/dev/homeassistant/components/fjaraskupan Bluetooth kitchen fan integration, and after like half a day or so, the Integration starts reporting:
"failed to perform the action fan/turn_on: Failed to write", when attempting to turn on the fan.

But after just reloading the fjaraskupan Integration, everything starts working again. How can I programmatically tell the fjaraskupan integration to reload itself when it isn't working? Seems like it's failing to reconnect to the fan after it has entered Bluetooth LE state, or something. Anyways, feels like HA bug, but I just want a cheap workaround.

Home Assistant Yellow (bcm43438-bt), Core: 2024.8.2, OS: 13.1. This behaviour isn't new to any specific HA version by any means, have been battling this issue for 2+ years.

I have 3x gl-s10s +’a couple of other esp32s. They are great, if you are comfortable soldering. But there are still dead zones in the house.

What are some good and cheap tiny battery operated buttons to use for automations? I've already tried 'iTags' but I don't like that they must maintain a BT connection (to a ESPHome BT Proxy) and therefore battery life is only a few months at best.

Hello, did anyone already got this error ?

I m trying to integerate bluetooth device, currently I detect 2 devices and can't integrate both of them : An unhandled error occurred while attempting to pair with this device. This may be a temporary failure or your device may not be supported currently: Bluetooth GATT Error address=E8:CE:BA:06:86:2B handle=44 error=133 description=Error

fringe field
#

Iirc error 133 is defined as.. GATT_ERROR so it’s a bit hard to say what’s going on

#

Could be as simple as a range or interference issue

#

Or could be something much harder (some devices have so many characteristics some Bluetooth stacks just time out before we can enumerate everything).

#

Are you using an esphome proxy?

#

Yes I m using a bluetooth proxy, a flashed GL-S10 with esphome

#

Sorry to answer late, I was looking a movie with my daughters ^^'

My HA is on a VM under proxmox, and the bluetooth proxy is standalone under wifi (will be poe in the future)
Should I give permission somewhere ? I tought it was okay because I m using wifi to communicate :/

I am (one of) the maintainers for that integration. There’s no extra permission to give.

#

What device are you trying to pair?

#

How far is it from the proxy?

manic turret
#

I m trying on 2 devices
a « eve » voc sensor using homekit
a « yale » lock, available in 2 integrations yale bluetooth or homekit.

Both homekit show me these errors, the yale bluetooth ask me an offline key I don’t understand how to get. So I k trying using the homekit integration.

#

there are few meter away

fringe field
#

The yale lock likely won’t work with HomeKit full stop no matter what,

#

They require a similar key but the mechanism for getting it and sending it to the device isn’t known.

#

So even if you fix the problem and pair it you won’t be able to lock and unlock it

#

(You’d be able to see its status normally)

#

The initial Bluetooth support was not just tested against Eve, it was built using and for. I personally have Eve Thermo, Eve degree, Eve energy, Eve smoke, their motion sensor. And my co-maintainer did a bunch of work supporting older trickier Eve products.

#

The very oldest devices from their product line are the ones I said I said had too many characteristics and don’t currently work. But those are years and years old.

#

The GL-S10s are what I use, so I know the smoke detector is currently connected to one a few metres away just fine.

#

Pairing is probably the heaviest part of normal operation so I’d try bringing the sensor as close as possible to the proxy and try again. Then consider sources of interference. Any usb3 nearby, sata, is it a densely populated area with lots of wifi and Bluetooth?

manic turret
#

Quick question the homekit code should always be XXX-XX-XXX ? or I can remove the "-" I m trying both way

#

I ve move the eve sensor 1 cm from the bluetooth antena of the proxy, but I still got same issue.
In my home a lot of device are using zigbee, ethernet, few use bluetooth and wifi is managed by unifiy and I have separated my wifi to use different channel to avoid interference. Also my neighbours are not direct so I guess they don't create interference too

Are you able to test the proxy with Ethernet to see if that helps?

#

When the proxy is on WiFi there is the problem that it only has one radio

#

So what it does is switch rapidly between WiFi mode and Bluetooth mode.

#

It works fine most of the time, but obviously it’s not ideal that way

Regarding the yale bluettoth integration, I m trying to get the offline key, I m using the backup from IOS way but I m not sure to have the offline key stored there, or it has another name in the .plist file.

#

hmm in the log (I have allowed yale debuging) slot can be multiple thing

#

I found the same lockId in ha yale log and in one of my ios file backup

#

maybe lock Id is the offline key

#

I ll try it
