It looks pretty much the same, except that the BT headset does keep the link key around in the no bonding case, so future PTS runs work without have to do a new pairing. It's not just HFP that's affected. The same type of problem exists with A2DP where we're forced to leave the Pairable Bluez adapter property True for every PTS connection attempt. We normally set Discoverable and Pairable at the same time. So even if the RFCOMM case caused extra actions, it hardly fixes it. > This essentially means pairing twice and that is still stupid, but might > be what we should be doing.
