I'm currently using bluez5.42 (I'm nervous about using higher than that because I've had to backport many kernel changes to support this recent version (what else do I need to backport?)). I have most things working, but there are two issues I've not yet been able to resolve. The first is devices reconnecting when they come back into range. For example, I am testing with a Jawbone from Jambox. When coming back into range (or powering back on), I watch it attempt to connect, and it fails. If I have bluetoothctl up I see the status change from connected to unconnected about three or four times before the Jambox quits trying and powers back down. I have a BTLE keyboard that comes back into range and will not connect until I hit a key and the connection happens. I have other BTLE devices that attempt to reconnect, but fail as well. If you would like to stay around 5.42 I would suggest going for 5.43 instead as this is a mostly bug fix release over 5.42. As for the re-connection issues the best would be to capture HCI traces using btmon and analyze them to know why the connection attempt is denied.

In bluez5 there is the Alert1 interface with the NewAlert call, but it is deprecated code, so what should I be using? As a matter of interest, if I try to use the NewAlert method what is the proper use?
