Ubertooth 2015-09-R2 Release Notes

The Ubertooth host utilities in this release require libbtbb-2015-09-R2 or greater.

These are just the highlights, for a complete list of changes since the
previous release, see the git commit log.

  • Basic Rate Bluetooth Improvements
    • Stability has improved in performance constrained environments
    • The "uh oh, buffer not emptied" issue no longer causes the tools to loop
      indefinitely

      quickly when AFH is used
  • Basic Rate PCAP support
    • ubertooth-rx and ubertooth-follow support a new PCAP file format
    • The new PCAP format is also supported with a new Wireshark plugin: btbredr
    • The PCAP format is still in the early stages, but we hope to have the plugin
      included in Wireshark later this year
    • The older btbb format is still produced by the Kismet plugins, they will
      be migrated over to the new format in the next release
  • Bluetooth Smart (BLE) Improvements
    • Improved packet reception
    • Promiscuous sniffing mode is more reliable
    • Promiscuous sniffing reports the recovered parameters to the host
  • Skateboard Hacking
