Hi,

I have been trying to get bluetooth pairing working using NFC (bluez
together with neard).
I am using a NFC enabled bluetooth headset (Mototorola Elite Silver).

I have been trying with bluez 5.23 up to 5.40 as well as with neard 0.9
up to neard 0.15 but without success so far.
Bluez shows a message push_oob() but no pairing is happening. When
looking at the code, i have suspected an agent issue
but this is out of my knowledge scope.

Can anybody suggest what would be the best bluez/neard combination to
get nfc/bluetooth pairing to work or to track down this to get
it working ?

I can provide traces if you need.

I didn't look at that code for quite some time but I think to get it work
you need to have adapter powered up and have bluetooth agent registered.

So doing: 'power up', 'agent on' 'default-agent' from bluetoothctl should do.
