I'm also on 14.04 and can confirm the behaviour Andre described in post #4: If I turn off bluetooth the indicator disappears after the next reboot. As long as bluetooth stays turned on the indicator remains visible regardless of rebooting.
If bluetooth is turned off and the indicator is not visible I can reactivate it through the system settings – but after the turning-on bluetooth keeps being deactivated and only the indicator becomes visible again (greyed out; regardless of how many times I try to activate it in the system settings, the switch always rebounds)! At least I'm then able to activate bluetooth again through the indicator. Another bug I've noticed (I guess it's related to this one): If bluetooth is deactivated but the indicator is visible (greyed out) and I click on the switch to enable bluetooth visibility in the indicator (without actually enabling bluetooth beforehand) the indicator crashes (and disappears of course). Naturally it seems weird to turn visibility on while bluetooth is actually disabled but it is still a bug! To improve usability and consistency the visibility switch should be inactive (i.e. greyed out) while the switch to enable bluetooth is "off". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1285951 Title: bluetooth indicator disappears after turning off bluetooth To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-bluetooth/+bug/1285951/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
