Via --noplugin you specify which ofono plugins would not be loaded. So you can instruct ofono to not register HF or AG role of HFP to bluetoothd, which cause that bluetoothd does not create new RFCOMM connection for particular profile UUID. So registering / unregistering of UUIF can be done by restarting ofono with different parameters. But for HSP and HFP this is not enough! SCO listening master socket is created by ofono if at least one of HF or AG role plugin is loaded. And you cannot control this behavior as ofono does not have API for it. > And even if it is not possible and you can't use both at the same > time (which would be a pity) No it is not possible. It is even not possible to have one application with HSP HS and one with HFP AG (see difference HSP and HFP, even different profile is not possible). As I wrote is exactly same as if two applications want to listen on TCP port 1234 and both applications wants to accept only socket with specific parameters which can be deduced only after accepting socket. SCO sockets are not managed by bluetoothd daemon, but by target agent application which implements that particular profile. > we still have to respect if a user > thinks that for him a working implementation for his mobile is > more important than good headset support and therefore prefers > the ofono backend over any other backend. > > > > So what you want is currently impossible.

Are there other modem softwares? I can write e.g. simple application for hsphfpd which exports socket as tty device (via pts kernel interface). If there are working modem software which can use tty modem then could access also modem exported in this way. -- Pali Rohár pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
