Nothing works, I use my phone in car and handsfree function is crucial to use a phone as dayly driver. Mobian with Piperwire NOT work at all, with Pulseaudio - it simulate work everiting is OK except it dosent call and there is not audio. Postmarket doesnt work at all with bluetooth handsfree. Another OSes doesnt work with other phone functions. Which OS is WORKING??????
I have the same problem and asked about it back in February in the General Discussion section. Hoping someone can make use of it some of the details are:
Quote:I've got a bluetooth device that reports bluetooth version 2.1 and "Handsfree" capability so it should support hfp (handsfree protocol) version 1.5. It works perfectly fine with an Android phone.
On the pinephone (original) I've got Mobian with wireplumber 0.4.13 and pipewire 0.3.65-2. I switched from pulseaudio some months ago because I couldn't get anywhere with it.
I can initiate and end a call from the handsfree device but audio still goes through the pinephone built-in ear piece or speaker and the internal microphone. For incoming calls the pinephone properly causes the handsfree device to ring, and I can pickup and end the call with it, but again no audio goes through it so that I have to use the pinephone built-in ear piece or speaker and internal microphone. This tells me that at least the AT commands are being properly exchanged between the pinephone and the handsfree device.
My guess is that either the pipewire/wireplumber configuration is not correct ...
If this is to be used as a "phone", it seems to me that bluetooth handsfree ought to be a priority over things like improving camera software. Not having this working is the thing keeping this from being a daily driver for me.
