NanoPI NeoAir - is there bluetooth stack well implemeted?

[abramq]

Hello,
I am going to buy this unit, becuase I am lookig for a cheap board with Bluetooth and camera input included. NanoPi Neo Air seems to be the best choice (and the only - talking about cheap board).
Anyway, did someone play with its Bluetooth interface programming? I mean sending (mainly, but also receiving files) from NanoPi by Bluetooth. Are there any working tools (C, python)?

Thanks for any post in advance!

Please see the Wiki here

Code: Select all

apt-get install bluetooth bluez obexftp openobex-apps python-gobject ussp-push time bc

And blablabla...

Well, thank you, the theory is known but I was asking about something more.
For example, the obexftp is now in version 0.24.2 dated on nearly year before, previous version 0.24 is from year...2013 :-/
My question is for people who know this theme from practice, not from theory.
Did someone make any script (on NanoPi), maybe app (on Android) for successful and stable sending files?
I would like to make a production version of my unit, so there will be no place for failures, made by "yes, this library is sometimes not stable" or "sometimes Bluetooth can't find other devices".
Will be very thankful for all help.

what we wrote in wiki is practical indeed. please try step by step.

Thank you for your answer, but probably I may be incorrectly expressed it. I have seen instructions from Wiki and I have seen it works. I have seen it it dozen times performed by other and it works. But my unit will send hundreds of files, many hours, many days and the requirement is it to be sent with no troubles (security matters).
As I know, version of linux apps starting with zero (like 0.24 for obexftp) means that they are not final version, I am right? And I have red that such version shouldn't be used in production systems? But there is not any other...
Making real test needs me to buy more NanoPi and make long tests - that's why I am asking here, to save my $ and time. But maybe I'm scared unnecessarily?

Hi,

In my opinion, bluetooch on the board is not very stable, not suit to be used in a critical place. Because we have no enough resources to get help from the chips/module manufacturers. It's should be enough if you use the Bluetooth to do some simple thing, we have tried our best. Please understand.

Thank you
