I confirm that the package fix the bug. I downloaded it from : https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/1.173.13/+build/18178805/+files/linux-firmware_1.173.13_all.deb
I believe it may be necessary to halt, wait some seconds then start the computer after install (and not just restart the computer) as the firmware is loaded directly in the bluetooth adapter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1852785 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. ========== original bug description ========== --ubuntu release : lsb_release -d Description: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS -- package : apt show linux-firmware 2>&1 | grep -i "version:\|package:" Package: linux-firmware Version: 1.173.12 --hardware : lspci -vnn | grep irel 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 [8086:08b1] (rev bb) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 [8086:4070] lsusb -d 8087:07dc 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.
