It's a pity, but i can't figure out what went wrong.

Ok, finally got it to work:

ganyremote must be started with sudo
smartphone must already be connected on bluetooth
use my old smartphone with Android 4.4.4

When I press "Search" on my old Samsung smartphone, it too keeps searching forever, but pressing the bluetooth button with the PC name does the job.

No success with my (relatively) new Xiaomei Redmi Note 7 with Android 11 and LineageOS.

One more thing: When I start ganyremote from the command line, it responds with a bunch of warnings, and the last line is "anyremote: no process found". No idea what this means, the ganyremote window opens nevertheless, and the program behaves as described above.

Ok, did it.
PC: ganyremote: Ready to connect ...
Mobile: anyremote: Search / Bluetooth / Search: keeps searching forever.

There was a warning that the app was written for an older Android version and might not work correctly. I am on LineageOS, Android version 11. I keep some Google apps disabled (Google services framework), but apps usually emit a warning if they depend on that.

Yes, I just tried right now. With tcp, the device is detected, but shows message "android keeps failing". I previously
opened ports in router. And GUFW is disabled. With bluetooth, I introduce laptop bluetooth address manually, and says "disconnected, xxyyzzaabbcc is not a valid bluetooth address"

Sorry, cannot help you any further. All I achieved so far is stopping ganyremote to complain about the -C option.

Tried to connect trough wifi too, no success. The app is not available in google play for my devices. Could that be affecting the performance of app? I added my laptop manually. Devices are a Huawei with android 8.1 and LG with android 10.

Running ganyremote on my Linux Mint system, I see the following status line:

Ready to connect on TCP port 5197, Bluetooth channel 19, HTTP port 5080, Avahi

What must I do for the connction in fact taking place? I followed the instructions, and ganyremote / Setup / only complains abot the j2me not being installed. Might this be the reason?
