Title:
ubuntu 18.04.3 : intel 7260 bluetooth firmware doesn't have working
hsp/hfp profile
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in linux-firmware source package in Bionic:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[SRU Justification]
[Impact]
When using a bluetooth headset the ad2p profile is supported but the
hsp/hfp profile doesn't work.
[Fix]
Using the latest firmware with patch version 42 solves from commit
629a5e089e30 ("linux-firmware: Update firmware patch for Intel
Bluetooth 7260 (B5/B6)").
[Test Case]
Pair with headset/mobile phone with HSP/HFP support and try A/V
control.
[Regression Potential]
Low. This upgrades only the firmware blob used by affected hardware,
and the proposed blob is also used by later releases.

Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
-- package :

Package: linux-firmware

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:07dc Intel Corp.
--problem :
The bluetooth part of the intel 7260 wifi/bluetooth card needs a firmware
file to operate.
The version of my card is reported in dmesg as :
Bluetooth: hci0: read Intel version: 3707100180012d0d00
this will load firmware file
Bluetooth: hci0: Intel Bluetooth firmware file: intel/ibt-
hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.1.2d.d.bseq
When using a bluetooth headset the ad2p profile is supported but the
hsp/hfp profile doesn't work, I believe the version in the current
linux-firmawre package is patch version 39.
--solution :
Using the latest firmware with patch version 42 solves the problem :
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-
firmware.git/commit/intel/ibt-
hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.1.2d.d.bseq?id=629a5e089e300ba153c1358cca2193a7671c2f80
With this firmware the hsp/hfp profile is working, this means the
microphone and the sound of the bluetooth headset are working
correctly.
