No Bluetooth Found Plug in a dongle to use Bluetooth Ubuntu Budgie 20.10

About a week ago I installed Ubuntu Budgie 20.10 on my HP Pavilion 15 n004tx. I try to connect my wireless earphones (OnePlus Wireless Z earphone and Infinity Glide N120) but it says No Bluetooth Found Plug in a dongle to use Bluetooth. In Bluetooth settings I tried to click on button at top right corner but that button is inactive. I clicked on that button, but that button does not shift to the right.

@abhishek can you please help me with this problem
It’s been 13 days since i asked this question (26/01/2021).

I understand your frustration, but that shouldn’t make you getting cocky and pushy towards people who don’t get any benefit from trying to help others.

You’re looking for a solution for a specific problem. In order to help you, someone needs to have solved a similar issue. This leaves people out who don’t have Bluetooth on their devices (e.g. me), those who have had no issues anyway and those who couldn’t solve them.

Then, the person in question must have the time and the skills to provide you with a solution. I guess, many people would be happy to, in the end, we are a community, but when we can’t for any of the reasons mentioned, we just can’t.

And lastly, to push Abhishek directly, is just out of place: He’s a working man, manages ItsFoss, provides it with a lot of high quality content. On top of that, he still takes the time to participate in this forum. If he could have helped you with this issue, he would have.

If I were you, I’d try to contact HP support and check out

or, if you speak German:

Sorry @Mina ji, I was just seeking help.

I understand that, but manners matter, at least in my opinion.

I was curious, so I ran the same command. My motherboard has no bluetooth hardware. Many don’t. I’ll have to buy a Bluetooth USB dongle if I want to have wireless earphones. That’s why my Lubuntu Bluetooth wizard sits and spins, scanning for a Bluetooth device that isn’t there. Your machine has the hardware; follow Mina’s advice and ask HP.
