try:
sudo gainroot
vi /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
To edit the file, press "i". You can then edit normally.
Press "esc" softkey when done, then type ":wq" to save and quit, or ":q!" to quit without saving

Got it! emelFM2 as root. Thnaks so much for the tips guys
When I go to X terminal to change the main.conf
I put in:
Sudo gainroot
then
/etc/bluetooth/main.conf
I then get: /bin/sh: /etc/bluetooth/main.conf: permission denied
How come I have denied permission? Isn't rootsh supposed to give me root access? Please help and thanks.
