Hi expman99@gmail.com,
I assume you are using i.MX8M Mini EVK. I have tested the bluetooth on this evk and connected the same with smartphone. For doing the same you can refer the attached "i.MX_Linux_User's_Guide.pdf", section 10.1.
Also, for various bluetooth services and operations, you can use the utility like bluetoothctl or obexftp for file transfer.
Regards,
Kunal
