Sorry for late response, there is probably no conflict to have both backends enable right now but as soon as the native backend start accepting incoming connection for SCO it will not be possible to have this option anymore and I thought the idea was to complete the native backend with both AG and HF roles, anyway for HFP the roles does not restrict who initiate the connections, to be able to do audio transfer, and I guess we want to complete the AG in ofono anyway. -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz
