I paired with my (Samsung Galaxy S3) phone and it appears in the NetworkManager menu. But when I attempt to connect, it fails. I get a pop-up saying that it failed, but not giving a reason. In /var/log/messages I see the following: Jan 30 13:19:47 shinybook NetworkManager[4583]: <info> Activation (5C:E8:EB:1F:9D:93) starting connection 'GT-I9300 Network' Jan 30 13:19:47 shinybook NetworkManager[4583]: <info> (5C:E8:EB:1F:9D:93): device state change: disconnected -> prepare (reason 'none') [30 40 0] Jan 30 13:19:47 shinybook NetworkManager[4583]: <info> Activation (5C:E8:EB:1F:9D:93) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) scheduled...
