but then, a bit after, I get the device prompt… then I lose it. The I get it again. It’s unstable as hell.

But on my Tab S6, the info is that it wasn’t possible to pair and I should check the configurations in my device and try again.
and then…

But on my tablet, it’s all the same. Bluetoothctl keeps showing that last in a loop. I then tried the connect command… and told my tablet to pair again. This time, the pin confirmation came not on the terminal, but on KDE’s interface. I confirmed. These showed up in terminal:

While the tablet too a long time, but now says it’s paired. Bluetooth interface agrees…
tried sending a file from the Tablet and… failure. Nothing shows up on the computer. From the computer to the Tab it also fails =(
Now the ctl shows a connection drop

no idea what else to try except for cracking this thing open, and checking the physical connection. Bad part is, if it is a replacement issue, I’ll have to get on Windows anyway to collect evidences for Dell support to replace it (yey warranty)
