This is a bug in the gnome-bluetooth code. You can issue "hciconfig hci0 inqmode" as root to set your device back into the inquiry results mode for Bluetooth 1.1 devices. Then it should find remote devices again.
To be 100% clear, this is a gnome-bluetooth bug and not an issue of the functionality of hcid. -- gnome-obex-send cannot find devices https://launchpad.net/bugs/70718 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
