Honestly sounds like faulty hardware or interference.
- oriolid 6y agoThere's something odd about the 2019 MBP Bluetooth hardware. The most interesting part is that just plugging in a Cambridge Silicon -based USB dongle can kill it permanently: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250944058 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250944058
- 05 6y agoDoesn't kill it permanently; there's a fix involving connecting a CSR 2.0 dongle. There's also a workaround that sets an nvram var. Overall it's an absolute clusterfuck, though, because Apple still haven't fixed the problem.
- oriolid 6y agoThe workaround with nvram doesn't work if you already made the mistake of plugging in the CSR dongle. I don't know about the fix with CSR 2.0 dongle, it seems that nobody's selling them any more. Could work, could be an urban legend like all the reported fixes with nvram and pram resets and restoring various files.
- 05 6y agoI can confirm the 2.0 BT dongle fix works because I had that exact issue and that's how I fixed it. Of course, I still made Apple replace the laptop (was less than 2 weeks old), but doesn't really seem like they've noticed seeing how it's still not patched almost a year later.
