My Bluetooth is not working in my ubuntu 18.04(I recently installed it). I have tried almost all answers on StackExchange, but no use.

Here are some commands that might help you understand the problem.

$ systemctl status bluetooth

● bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled; vendor preset Active: inactive (dead) Docs: man:bluetoothd(8) lines 1-4/4 (END)

I know it can be started by systemctl start bluetooth but it is of no use, as it does not change any thing except the status.

And

$ sudo bluetoothctl

It does not do any thing except a blank cursor which I have to cancel manually.

I also have installed bluez as someone said in any answer. Version is

$ dpkg --status bluez | grep '^Version:'
Version: 5.50-0ubuntu0ppa1

If I start bluetooth service by $ systemctl start bluetooth then bluetoothctl shows following.

(base) ahmad@ahmad-HP-Laptop-15-da1xxx:~$ bluetoothctl 
Agent registered
[bluetooth]# list
[bluetooth]# scan on
No default controller available
[bluetooth]# power
Missing on/off argument
[bluetooth]# power on
No default controller available
[bluetooth]# 

But I can see a small bluetooth ugly symbol at top(Maybe because of bluez), but turing it on pops up a window as following

Please help me solve this problem.

Edit

Also 1 more command might help you, after starting bluetooth, I typed this too
