Unfortunately that is not the case, I've been playing with BT headsets for weeks, and have not got a peep out of one (I've tried several), I have not even got a2dp working either. I did get it all working on my desktop so I could understand Bluez, however it seems it is easier on a desktop because it is all S/W, the FR routes BT audio directly into the audio chip and bypasses S/W altogether, at least that is the theory, but no one has yet been able to get that audio path to work, or get a combination of audio pathway and bluez configuration. I'm glad more people are asking, because there has been ZERO response from OM on this issue and there has been a ticket on this issue for 20 months! http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/113 If someone does get this working please update the wiki. I have given up I've spent way too much time on this issue, and to be honest I think OM needs to investigate why it is so hard... Is it even possible? > Good Luck You will need it. -- Jim Morris, http://blog.wolfman.com _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
