I am also trying to connect my phone to my laptop using KDE Connect and Bluetooth (there is no stable WiFi where I am), which according to [KDE userbase article on KDEConnect; I’m lacking permission to insert a link] should be possible since 24.08.1.
I have the phone and laptop paired using Bluetooth, and KDE Connect on the phone has the Bluetooth beta enabled, but neither on the phone when I press “pair new device” in KDE Connect, nor on my laptop when I press “Refresh” in System Settings > KDE Connect, I can discover / see the other (i.e. it does not work from either device). journalctl --user -b
contains nothing obviously related and journalctl --user -b -t kdeconnect
is empty.
The phone is on Android 13 with KDE Connect 1.32.9 (via F-Droid) and the laptop is on Fedora 41 KDE with KDE Connect 24.12.0:
Operating System: Fedora Linux 41
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.4

Any idea what might be wrong or how to debug this?
