see "/media/bill/PROJECTS/System_maintenance/bluetooth/0_bluetooth notes.txt"

Terminal-based!! :

Terminal
The quickest way to get your Bluetooth devices paired to your Raspberry Pi is through Terminal.
Taylor Martin/CNET
From the Raspberry Pi desktop, open a new Terminal window.
Type sudo bluetoothctl then press enter and input the administrator password (the default password is raspberry).
Next, enter agent on and press enter. Then type default-agent and press enter.
Type scan on and press enter one more time. The unique addresses of all the Bluetooth devices around the Raspberry Pi will appear and look something like an alphanumeric XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. If you make the device you want to pair discoverable (or put it into pairing mode), the device nickname may appear to the right of the address. If not, you will have to do a little trial and error or waiting to find the correct device.
To pair the device, type pair [device Bluetooth address]. The command will look something like pair XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.
If you're pairing a keyboard, you will need to enter a six-digit string of numbers. You will see that the device has been paired, but it may not have connected. To connect the device, type connect XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.
Now you can toss that ancient wired keyboard in the junk drawer of your desk until you reflash your Raspberry Pi tomorrow.

I don't think you need to reboot, but definitely do
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
on a fresh install.
What's in your /etc/apt/sources.list? It could be that something is commented out, or that you need to add some things.
Read this. I usually add contrib and non-free.
Ehm, that is, if Kali uses the Debian repositories (which I think it does, seeing that it uses apt.

Now I've ruined the micro-USB connect on my cellphone, and have to get it repaired
