I want to connect and pair to available nearby bluetooth devices from command line in linux. I have searched through internet, and found that we can pair through simple-agent, but it is not available in my device. following commands are available in device: hcitool, hciconfig, hcidump, sdptool, l2ping, rfcomm. for connecting to remote device i am running the following command. hcitool cc BD_ADDRESS but above command is connecting the device for a while, and again the device is getting disconnected. in hcidump output , i am seeing the disconnection event. Is there anyway in linux command line through which i can test my bluetooth? What can be the reason for device is getting disconnected after a while?

I saw the same issue once and was able to solve it with the rfcomm command. Try the following:
# rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 00:11:22:33:44:55 1 &
Additionally, it is good practice to enable secure simple pairing and enable page and inquiry scan with the following commands:
# hciconfig hci0 sspmode 1
# hciconfig hci0 piscan
Let me know if you still have problems.
