I am using Linux Mint 18, my bluetooth icon is appearing but it cannot find any devices when searched for. The output for dmesg |grep -i blue



[   12.730623] Bluetooth: Core ver 2.21

[   12.730638] Bluetooth: HCI device and connection manager initialized

Just installed Linux Mint 18.1. Bluetooth speaker would not pair.



Went to software manager and installed package "Blueman" then went to "all applications" from "Menu", right clicked "Bluetooth" then "uninstall".



Blueman icon showed up on "Panel", clicked on it, followed the very intuitive menu and within about one minute my Bluetooth speakers worked fine. Be sure and go to "sound settings" and select the speakers.



Very simple.

    Yeah works great (mouse and keyboard), but then after a few hours, suddenly connection lost and refuses to reconnect. Eventually mysteriously reconnects after incessant retries.
