I use bluetooth sparingly, maybe once or twice a month, so I am not 100% certain about when it stopped working.

Anyway, I had overclocked the cpu to 900 mhz using kernel-power in extras-testing and was fine-tuning voltages, reading the overclocking thread, I decided to check in terminal "dmesg | grep error" to find any cpu related errors and the output was "[ 124.260314] hci_h4p hci_h4p: FW error", 3 minutes and some googling later, I found it to be related to bluetooth. So I decided to activate it to pair the N900 with some bluetooth headphones and it just didn't work, no icon, no nothing.

Right now, I've reflashed the device and the error is presistent. No bluetooth for me.

output from "dmesg | grep hci_h4p":

Code:

[       5.895874] hci_h4p hci_h4p: Registering HCI H4P device
[      15.893157] hci_h4p hci_h4p: firmware: requesting bcmfw.bin

[      16.269958] hci_h4p hci_h4p: Sending firmware failed.

output from "dmesg | grep Bluetooth":

Code:

Any help would be appreciated.
