GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 712383
Multiple bluetooth networks for the same device
Last modified: 2014-04-25 01:20:37 UTC
Set up a bluetooth phone/tablet capable of being used as a network device with the bluetooth wizard. Remove it. Set it up again and check it as being a network device - multiples entries in the system status menu appear. See screenshot attached

Ok this is not happening again. My tablet is called 'Galaxy Tab', all I had to do was remove these files: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Galaxy\ Tab\ Network* and I set up a Bluetooth connection again. This time, no duplicates were placed under that directory and, as a result, no duplicates in the Bluetooth menu.
