is anyone here a pi expert? I'm trying to make a pi zero 2 W use bluetooth to listen for my casio dw h5600 watchs phone finder feature, and then do something. I've been trying to for a while and because there are no online guides ( and I don't want to research Pi myself ) I have to use AI, which is pretty unreliable and hasn't been working so I really need and expert to help me, please.
Generally, if you want to work on a project, we expect you to put a modicum of effort into it. "I tried X and Y and Z happened, but I expected A to happen, and here are the debugging steps I tried and threw my code" is a good post for technical help. "I'm too lazy to actually do any research myself" isn't particularly going to motivate people to help you.
I tried installing Bluetooth tools on my pi zero, but it kept having errors and I didn’t know what I was doing so I had to find a source but was unable to, then nothing happened. I’ll try harder to find sources I guess and I’ll try to try and read them
So I was folowing this "https://www.teachmemicro.com/setting-raspberry-pi-zero-bluetooth/" and after executing "scan on" my pi responded with "SetDiscoveryFilter failed: org.bluez.Error.NotReady
Failed to start discovery: org.bluez.Error.NotReady", so I researched the error at this page "https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/508221/bluetooth-service-running-but-bluetoothctl-says-org-bluez-error-notready" where a commenter says to execute "rfkill unblock all" and I tried to do so but was meeted with "rfkill: cannot open /dev/rfkill: Permission denied" so I researched it and found out to fix it I should run it with "sudo" and it worked and then I tried scan on and it worked. Next, I needed to find my casio dw h5600 mac address so I researched how and can't really find anything. Do you know how to find a devices mac address?
There's no particular way to discover a device's bluetooth address. It doesn't look like your watch provides that information in any of its menus (but it may be worth checking; I don't see any indication it does based on the manual). If you've paired it with a phone then you can probably figure it out that way (at least on Android it looks like there are apps that will allow you to see the hardware address of paired Bluetooth devices), otherwise you may need to guess.

From what I can tell, the first 24 bits of a 48-bit bluetooth address use an OUI (just like Ethernet addresses), so listing all devices nearby and looking at their OUI to find one that appears to be Casio might work. For instance, at least the OUI 08:00:74 is assigned to Casio (there may be others as well), so if you see a bluetooth address that starts with that OUI that address probably belongs to a Casio device.
I think I’m gonna ask my home slice if he can connect my watch to his phone because he’s on android and I’m on iOS and it seems much easier to check the mac address on an android os (aos?)
Can’t get my friend to help out, but my project actually requires me to have my own android phone, for some reasons beyond the MAC address (mainly ease of use with some development), so I’m gonna get to work on some other aspects of the project while I save
My project is to recreate the Rainbow 6 Siege operator Lion by using my Casio dw-h5600 and its “phone finder” feature, which would be picked up by a pi device (such as a pico 2 w or zero 2 w) and then send a signal to a drone to take a few pictures and then spot the differences between the images as a sort of scan like Lions ability in the game, although not through surfaces. However I have no idea how I would see the pings, probably via AR glasses, which I don’t know how I would get those to display custom stuff. Short, this project will take a while, although a may not need as much help as I thought.
The phone is to help out with the computing and receiving of the pi’s signals two the drone ( the phone on the drone), and I plan on using a small android phone, like the cat s22.
This project is to hard I don’t feel like doing it
