Hi Johan, When I manually enter the command "agent NoInputNoOutput" in bluetoothctl it works and registers the agent to be used for when pairing to a Bluetooth device. But when I try the same command in code it doesn't register it like I described originally, and it doesn't exit bluetoothctl either. It also doesn't work with other commands like "discoverable on" etc. But I guess ill look into using the API profile instead. You didn't attach any documents so I guess these are available on github or something.

As I said earlier, that's because bluetoothd presumably exited. It needs to run in order for an agent to exist. Regarding sdptool & rfcomm usage, you might want to look into using the profile API instead (see doc/profile-api.txt and test/test-profile). It'll take care of the SDP and RFCOMM details for you, and e.g. completely skip TTYs in favor of RFCOMM sockets (I see you reported that you had some kernel issues with the TTYs).
