Hi,
I wrote a little app that tries to support the hands-free (HF) profile but I am having trouble keeping the SCO connection alive.  Using an RFCOMM connection, I am able to establish the HF Service Level Connection per HF Profile specification and then create an SCO connection to a mobile phone.  But SCO seems to get disconnected by the phone after about 40-50msec of bidirectional voice data.  I can reconnect SCO but the phone disconnects it again.  Once in a while, this problem doesn't occur and SCO stays alive.  When this happens, I can tear down and bring up the HF setup repeatedly without any problem unless I power cycle the phone or the linux machine.  I would like to make it work on consistent basis.
Please note that I am using the bluez lib only. I am not relying on the "services" utilities in the bluez-util package (I turned them all off).  Also, my SDP setup code seems to operate okay (i.e. output of "sdptool browse local" looks fine)
Setup:
    - Fedora 8 with
        kernel 2.6.24.4
        bluez-lib 3.20
        L2CAP v2.9
        RFCOMM v1.8
        SCO v0.5
    - Bluetooth dongle: Targus with Broadcom 2045    - phone: Nokia 6085
I have tried another phone and another BT dongle and the problem is still there so I am leaning it's either my code or bluez...
I have attached the hcidump output of a problematic session if anyone wants to take a look.
TIA for any tips or comments,
Michael
