Blueshark not functioning as expected/not communicating with PM3
Things to try before submitting bug report read the troubleshooting guide
Compilation problems
Try compiling with verbose. make VERBOSE=1 with main makefile or make V=1 with cmake.
flashing problems Have you followed the instructions properly? ie, flashed bootrom seperately first if you are going from Offical repo to Iceman repo.
Describe the bug The PM3 is working as expected over USB. Blueshark addon will connect to Bluetooth but I cannot connect it to PM3 client via Bluetooth when it is connected to laptop.
All Github instruction followed - have tried the Brew 'with Blueshark' install, tried recompiling it from source, tried the ---HEAD with blueshark support. All same result.
Bluetooth device name is not as suggested in online instructions and appears funky. My Bluetooth device name is PM3_RDV4.0AT+ROLE=S (out of the box)
Screenshots
Screenshots show Bluetooth device name and available serial ports before and after connecting PM3+Blueshark to laptop to demonstrate it is present.

Remove the device from the known devices and re-pairing helped in my case
Is there any alternate solution to this? I ran into the same problem and re-pairing the device did not help. @SimonSaysBoo have you found a solution to this problem? I have the exact same setup and followed the same steps and of course ran into the same problem. Your help would be appreciated
im having the same issue, removing and repairing did not help . Any thoughts?
I am brand new at this and having the same problem. Looking at the hw version output for both myself and OP we seem to be missing native bt support for our clients.
Okay, I am assuming there are compiling options I missed, but there is a build at https://www.proxmarkbuilds.org/ that is marked for blueshark and contains the pm3 environment and the flash files necessary to get this working on a computer. Still no luck with the app, but that is a totally separate issue.
Following works for me on macOS:
Start proxmark with:
proxmark3 -p /dev/tty.PM3_RDV40ATROLES -w
Then click on connect in the Bluetooth Menu. Sometimes I have to remove it in the Bluetooth Menu and repair.
I have installed it with Homebrew:
brew install xquartz
brew tap RfidResearchGroup/proxmark3
brew install --with-blueshark proxmark3
its a shit shot of problems on Mac. I get it connected to bluetooth no problem. But won't connect to client. This device biggest PIA I've ever dealt with
Since it seems to be a running issue, we would need some kind of documentation on how to make it run / how to handle different possible wrongs on Mac.
Who is up for it?

My comment 6 months ago explains how to get it running, if there is anything I can do that helps you, just tell me. Maybe someone can also test it and tell us if it helps them too.
I did not test on macOS Sonoma yet.
./pm3 --list
It should give you that serial port, and the rest of your items is mentioned in the macOS guide.
