Hello, thanks for great forum and great tutorials. I really got into this gimx stuff and im going to do instructions/tutorials in finnish also.
But I got one question about Hama BT dongle:
I already checked that bluetooth dongle wiki and theres Hama dongle 00049232, but im going to buy Hama 00049218, so is it using same chip? (https://www.hama.com/00049218/hama-blue ... 0-c2-+-edr)

And can you recommend that for ps4 setting?

Thank you for your time and sorry for bad english.

Hi,
It looks like it has a CSR chip inside as the user manual explains how to install the CSR harmony stack:

It is a BT 4.0 dongle with a CSR chip, which means it should be using a CSR8510 chip.
So yes, it should work fine with the PS4!

Works great, thanks for the reply!

Got my old laptop working with ubuntu, but im going to build DIY adapter anyway after weekend. I think USB works better with gaming than bluetooth? Let's see...

USB tends to be more reliable.
