If I run maebble with no config file I get:
Code:
find nearby devices no device found None
Just tried my girlfriends android phone which I've never used before with the pebble and it also finds it fine

I've had a very bad device summer. My second n900 died during a phone call (sim card not seen even after reflashing) and my pebble time wont start after sleeping in a drawer during my vacation (it starts but the screen is black, factory reset doesn't help).
I'm now on my third n900 and back to my spare pebble classic. Hence I've had reason to try the setup of maebble again and to me it was very straight forward:
- pair n900 with pebble (confirm on both devices, n900 with standard settings, n900 displays message "pairing complete")
- install python-bluez
- update maebble config file with bluetooth mac
- run maebbled.py
I realize that it doesn't help much for those with problem but I cannot recreate the problems with my current setup.
Unfortunately I haven't got any news on app support but it isn't dead.

Hey Proprog, thanks for all the help., like you can see here at TMO I am one of the first N900/Pebble fans I very much don't want to be a tech support PITA.
I used gadgetbridge to reset and upgrade to v3.8 firmware with my LineageOS tablet.
https://github.com/Freeyourgadget/Ga...rmware-updates
Which means I can now install pebble watch apps onto the Pebble, where before I couldn't. So seems 100% functional with Nexus7-Gadgetbridge
(snip me chasing wrong problem, I just reinstalled and verified proper MAC and maebbled worked!)
(edit)Does Maebbled pass on GPS and network connection to watch apps?(I will also look in the thread)

N900 sees other bluetooth devices (other android phone, computer, etc) just not the pebbleCode:Nokia-N900:~# ./simple-agent hci0 C2:3A:79:20:0A:76 Creating device failed: org.bluez.Error.ConnectionAttemptFailed: Page Timeout
https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...08&postcount=5
but I think bluemaemo is just for keyboards, my concern is is bluemaemo is messing with my other pairings?
FWIW tried to connect with bluemaemo and I have cleared out the pebble, it helps me pair, get the buzz on the pebble
then offers me the chance to connect to the pebble, click yes
Trying to connect to
Pebble 2BB5
(cancel)
then
(n900 notification)Bluetooth On <> (discoverable)
Unable to connect to
Pebble 2BB5
Damn
What Bluetooth profile does Pebble use?

Looks like maebble cannot find the config file at all. Probably something about the location of the file that isn't working, or that I have forgotten.
It should pick it up if in same directory but will first look in /home/user/.config/maebble/ so you might want to copy it there.
I get the "!! TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, bool found" error as well and am looking at it. But the connection should work anyway.
EDIT: Just noticed that you get the message that the file cannot be read. Didn't someone have a problem with unicode in a previous post?

I "fixed" the unicode problem by just hard coding the variable in the script
Or maybe it was
Code:
config_file = "maebble.cfg"
Code:
config_file = r"maebble.cfg"

The instructions regarding the config file are too sparse, and it doesn't help that I guess rather than look at the code.
By default maebble looks for a parameter "--config_file" followed by the full path to the config file. If no config parameter is provided the first unicode error will be logged.
Then maebble looks for the config file "/home/user/.config/maebble/maebble.cfg". The problem is that if that file isn't found, or something goes bad when reading it, there is no log.
To get something in the log you need to use parameters "--config_file maebble.cfg" or "--config_file /home/user/.config/maebble/maebble.cfg".
Apologies or the confusion. I added the parameter for the config file without much though to solve my problem with multiple devices. I'll try to change it to something better in the next update.
