Bluetooth device not listed for PAN/DUN internet connection despite paired, connected
Greetings, I recently upgraded from Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 to Ubuntu GNOME 15.10.
Sometimes I use my Bluetooth-enabled phone for its internet connection.
In previous Ubuntu GNOME 14.04.3, this used to work:
1.) Enable Bluetooth on Ubuntu and on phone
2.) Open top-right Gnome3-shell menu on screen (the one with wireless icon, speaker volume icon etc.)
3.) Top-right menu shows Bluetooth
4.) Select Bluetooth -> Bluetooth settings
5.) Scan for devices
6.) Pair with it, entering PIN code etc.
7.) Connect with it, confirm connection request on phone -> status paired, connected
Then, following steps would be:
8.) Top-right menu shows "My phone" together with "Wireless network" and "Battery".
9.) Select "My phone" -> "Use it for internet connection"
10.) Set up wireless provider etc.
11.) Internet connection is now possible over Bluetooth via phone. Success.
But in new Ubuntu GNOME 15.10, I cannot take steps 8 to 11. I am stuck at the following:
8.) Top-right menu does not show "My phone", only "Wireless network", "Bluetooth" and "Battery". Bluetooth entry only shows "1 device connected", but I do not see any option for addressing my phone via this menu and making an internet connection with it. Also in the System settings -> Bluetooth, when I click on my phone, I see no mention of it having a dialup/umts modem inside.
Am I doing something wrong?
I tried running bluetoothctl tool:

[My phone]# register-profile 00001103-
Unable to find GattManager proxy
Is maybe some dbus service not running (GattManager)?
But it generally does support the dialup networking profile - it already worked in Ubuntu GNOME 14.04.
How does the top-right menu know, which network access methods are available at all, which entries to put into this menu - maybe something is missing there?
gnome-bluetooth is installed.
Not sure if to file this under Distribution Ubuntu in general or under project "Ubuntu GNOME".
Please help.
Greetings
