** Description changed: This is a regression between Hardy and Intrepid == Regression details == Discovered in version: Intrepid Last known good version: Hardy == Affected use cases/hardware == Any bluetooth peripheral that has a fixed pin which is not handled by the hardcoded algorithm upstream uses.

Started bluetooth-wizard, with headset in pairing mode. Headset detected OK and shown on the "Device search" display. Selected it and clicked "Forward". Under "Device setup", got message "setting up new device", then "Connecting to X3 micro now". Then, "Please enter the following PIN code: 0000" flashed up and vanished, followed by "Pairing with X3 micro failed". In fact, because it's a headset, there is no way to enter a pin code on it, and I presume this is why the failure occurred. What is needed is for the bluetooth-wizard to prompt for the headset's pin code and send that to the headset, rather than the other way around as is set up at present.
