Hi,

I'd like to add to this that installing the bluez-firmware on an up to date Buster installation (10.2) does not fix it, just like Malvin points out. My hardware is looking for A1 instead of A0, but the issue is the same.

Dmesg:

$ sudo dmesg |grep BCM20702A1
[    4.457749] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM20702A1 (001.002.014) build 0000
[ 4.458102] bluetooth hci0: firmware: failed to load brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e8.hcd (-2) [ 4.458192] bluetooth hci0: Direct firmware load for brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e8.hcd failed with error -2 [ 4.458194] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: Patch brcm/BCM20702A1-0a5c-21e8.hcd not found

For me as well, following the instructions on http://plugable.com/2014/06/23/plugable-usb-bluetooth-adapter-solving-hfphsp-profile-issues-on-linux fixed this issue.

Thank you

Stijn
