Wireshark unable to open btsnoop file - bluetooth

Question

I followed the instructions in the answer to Bluetooth HCI snoop log not generated to create a btsnoop file using btsnooz.py from my Android bugreport file. When I opened the resulting btsnoop.log file in Wireshark I got the error The file "btsnoop.log" isn't a capture file in a format Wireshark understands.
The adb bugreport was done against an S7 Edge running Android 8.0.0.
A copy of the btsnoop.log file can be found here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Y3544DrhPbI9YxktL6rSWkpAe-YeoPn4/view?usp=sharing
How I can analyze this file?

Answer 1

While it doesn't exactly answer the question perhaps it'll help find the answer (I'm not allowed to comment yet). Your trace starts with FFFE6200740073006E006F006F007000, where FFFE looks like UTF-16LE BOM and then goes "btsnoop" interleaved with zeroes. I got exactly that when running that script btsnooz.py "from under" python-2.7 that had been installed on my W10x64 laptop in the past - like this:
C:\python27-x64\python.exe btsnooz.py bugreport-2021-01-09-22-52-09.txt >bugreport.pcap
I then tried running it directly like this instead, hoping that W10 has some built-in python of its own:
.\btsnooz.py bugreport-2021-01-09-22-52-09.txt >bugreport.pcap
and got a twice smaller file that starts with "btsnoop" like valid ones do. Although I'm having a different issue with it (Wireshark can only decode the first few packets) it looks like a step forward as method #1 of running btsnooz.py above appears to corrupt the output file somehow.
Here's what btsnooz.py should write into the beginning of the file as follows from its code, so anything else there means incorrect execution of the script:
sys.stdout.write('btsnoop\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x03\xea')
HTH...
Update: Apparently that python script btsnooz.py is implied for use on Linux: just verified it on Ubuntu with python v2.7 and it produces correct traces parsed by Wireshark w/o any such errors. When used on Windows it seems to write 0D0A instead of every 0A, causing above described Wireshark parsing errors. Replacing those 0D0A "back" with 0A in a hex editor fixed those errors in my case.

Answer 2

I've just run into the same issue, and have managed to modify btsnooz.py to work correctly with Python 3 on Windows (and I expect Linux etc too, as I didn't do anything specifically with line endings, just encodings etc to match Python 2 behaviour). I've also made it output to a file called "btsnoop.log" in the current directory (overwriting any that might already exist) rather than trying to write to stdout.
I have included my modified code below - just save it as "btsnooz.py" and run python btsnooz.py <name of bugreport file>.txt, using Python 3
#!/usr/bin/env python
