This post shows how to change Bluetooth device address on Raspberry Pi. Bluetooth device address (aka BD_ADDR, Bluetooth MAC address) is a 48-bit identifier assigned to each Bluetooth chip. Whether it can be changed is depends on each chip. Fortunately, Raspberry Pi’s on-board Bluetooth chip (Cypress/Broadcom) allows device address change. Assumptions Raspberry Pi board with on-board… Continue reading “Changing a Bluetooth Device Address on Raspberry Pi”
