"LeEco" and "support" words can't stay in the same sentence from my experience

Unfortunately I don't have any Bluetooth headset available which supports aptX. But if someone has a aptX-capable headset, it's easy to find out:
Under System settings -> Developer Options, enable the option: "Enable Bluetooth HCI snoop log"
Now turn on Bluetooth, connect your aptX capable headset and play a few seconds auf Audio on the LePro 3 over your headset.
Turn off Bluetooth and the HCI snoop log again
Connect phone to your computer and copy the following file from the phone to the computer: btsnoop_hci.log
rename the file to btsnoop_hci.log.pcap (note the different file extension) and open it with Wireshark (wireshark is an open-source protocol analyzer)
You should see a lot of Bluetoth packets in wireshark. To make it easier, enter the following into the filter bar: btavdtp and press <ENTER>
Select the packet with the command "SetConfiguration" and in the lower pane expand the points: "Bluetooth AVDTP Protocol" -> "Capabilities" (see also attached screenshot)
Now you will see the codec, which the phone has negotiated with the headset (in my screenshot this is "SBC" as my headset doesn't support aptX)
Have fun!

I still don't know if the Le Pro 3 supports the aptX codec, but I found out that it supports another nice bluetooth-releated feature, which I was missing on my Nexus:
Bluetooth headset battery indicator! (Note: of course the headset also has to support this, otherwise it will not work!)
I own a Aukey EP-B26 A2DP headset and it was annoying not be able to check the battery level of the headset. It's working on iOS but not on plain open source Android (AOSP), like it's running on the Nexus phones. But apparently EUI has added support for this.
I looked into the resources of SystemUI and found that it includes four different icons to display the battery level of a supporting bluetooth headset:
bluetooth_headset_battery_empty.xml
bluetooth_headset_battery_full.xml
bluetooth_headset_battery_low.xml
bluetooth_headset_battery_medial.xml
See also the attached images.
I must admit I begin to like EUI more and more.

Do you know where I can enabled it? I used to have it showing my Jabra Bluetooth headphone battery, but I must have accidentally turned it off

I noticed that the battery info only is shown, if the "Phone Audio" profile is enabled. If I only use "Media Audio" and disable "Phone Audio" it doesn't display the battery icon (at least this is what I noticed with my Aukey headset).
See also the attached screenshot.

I had to disable and enable for it to be shown. It's working now.

Le Pro 3 supports aptX. I'm using headphones (aptX) and it's working fine.

Yes I found out it does.

I just received my pro 3 a couple days ago and is looking for a aptx headset.

What bluetooth codec is the best ?

When this was brought up before: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/help/whats-to-aptx-hd-aptx-sbc-bluetooth-t3627794
tl;dr set it to aptX HD and hope it falls back gracefully when not supported. No idea why it wasn't set as default...
I don't think the Bluetooth connection issue with your car has anything to do with the codec. Mine has trouble connecting every time regardless of what is picked. It is really frustrating, so hopefully it'll improve with a future update...
Depends on which codec your headphones supports of headphones supports aptxx

If your device supports Aptx (like some High-Rez Audio headseats), go for it .
If not select SBC
Aptx HD in only for Bluetooth 5.0 devices (actually no headsets or car audio system are available on the market with this feature)

Why not just select aptX[ HD] and let the devices negotiate down if it's unsupported?
Hmm my Sony XB650BT seems to connect using aptx hd. It doesn't appear to step down, but maybe it's playing aptx but still on aptx hd? The headset lists that it is aptx.

Unfortunately no because most of the time the AD2P protocol will choose SBC as the default codec if the codec you chose (aptx or aptx hd) is not compatible/available

As far as I know this is true and matches my experiences bouncing between aptX in my car and my non aptx Bose qc 25..

AptX implementation on ZE552KL and chip support

Hi everyone,
Android O brings bluetooth audio codec option that includes AptX. Does 625 actually support AptX? Is there a way to verify this? I have an AptX ready headset, it isn't fancy by any means, but I intend to make use of the feature. It's probably gimmicky but let's give it a shot.

This is screenshot of connected devices in action.
@sanctitude:
Which app does the notification about runnig "BT aptx codec" on your screen shot come from? How can i show that on my device?
You can find it on developer option, scroll down to bluetooth section where you can select your codec
Thanks, santitude!
I know about the "developer option" for the general setting of apt-x for BT but this is not the same thing as your screen shot.
Your screen-shot above is apparently a notification about the "running" codec, being actually used at the moment of playing music through BT.
On my device on LOS 15.1 i do not see a notification as on your screen shot, but this is exactly what i'm looking for.
I'm on stock Oreo, the notification just showed up during playback using aptX headset, it's probably OS related or behaviour. Anyone using LOS, please clarify

Can't change Bluetooth audio codecs or

I got the Oreo update and in developer options you're supposed to be able to change the codec, samplerate and a few other things to improve Bluetooth audio. However when I select a codec it doesn't change. It defaults to aac. I wanted to use Ldac. Tried aptx hd and Samsung hd as well and they don't work.
I have the same issue. When you select for example, AptX, the settings don't seem to stick.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Same here on S9+ cant change codec, always goes back to AAC

Try deactivating Bluetooth, then change the codec. Should work. Cheers
Which codec is best? AAC was my default.
Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
Apt-X is the best. That being said, the bluetooth device you connect too has to be compatible. Maybe that's why it switches back to AAC for you. (It sticks to apt X in my case)
Same problem here, it doesn't seem to stick. Even if I disable bluetooth. After closing and re-opening developer options it reverts back to SBC.
Any fix?
For me it only changed when a device was actually connected
Mine does not stay after I change it, it goes back to SBC.
Yo, everyone. I use a sennheiser gt 4.40 with aptx with s8. If you want to enable aptx. first go to BLUETOOTH settings, click the 3 dots. disable the duo bluetooth audio and then go to the developer settings, you will see it's working. but to be honest, I find no difference between these. LOL
Cheers

Finally! Disabling dul audio is what allows the setting to work on my Note 8. Using Forza Metallo headphones there is a VERY noticeable improvement when using aptx!
The audio codec is switching back from LDAC because your bluetooth headphones/speaker doesnt support LDAC. Same would be the case with APTX HD.

My problem is my stereo in my car is older and needs to use the SBC codec to stay connected with any reliability, but the phone automatically switches back to AAC when it connects to it. If I switch it back to SBC after it connects I have no connectivity issues but if I leave it on AAC it disconnects every 5 mins, won't display some track information, etc.
Duo bluetooth audio is not enabled, I have changed settings with both bluetooth and duo audio off. It will accept the change to SBC, but it reverts back to AAC when the stereo connects. The phone will not accept any change to any other bluetooth developer option either, when I exit the developer options and go back in they all are reverted back from my changes. Quite frustrating.

Just logged cause of this solution, thank you comrade, this solved the issue.
on the s9 plus u can only change to profiles whilst playing sound through the bluetooth headphones and only codecs the headphones support. when you re-pair it will auto select the best codec the headphones support anyway so no need to change it at all. i would leave this setting alone unless you want to dowbscale the codec (as it picks the best one for your bluetooth device)
Codec change on S8 does not stick
I have tried the dual audio status trick mentioned above for Note 8, but it doesn't work for my S8. I can select AptX in the developers section, but when you return to that section, the codec selected reverts to SBC. I have a pair of earbuds that supports AptX. Is Samsung pulling a fast one on us?

Worked for my s8. I am using it with a fiio q5. Aptx sticks after duo audio disable.
My S7 kept reverting back to aptx after I used LDAC With mij Sony 1000mx2.
There is an extra setting in the bluetooth settings for that headphone (tap the little)cog) to enable LDAC.
Switching that on worked for me.
where is this setting Dul Audio?
Sennheiser aptX HD
Hi all,
I can choose all the settings in my Umidigi A1 Pro but when connecting BT settings go back to default SBC. Android 8.1 has as far as I can see no more 3 dots or dual playback.
Default:
avrcp 1.4
sbc codec
44.1 khz
16 bit
stereo
ldac default=best

AptX [H870DS] - How to verify if AptX or AptX-Hd is working

Hi All,
I have purchased a bluetooth headset recently, which claims to be having AptX (not AptX-HD). I would like to know whether the headset supports AptX codec.
I believe the HiFi icon will be shown only with wired headset and that does not show up with wireless headsets.
I tried catching a logcat via adb, but I wasn't sure how to catch it up from the logs. I tried to change the options in developer settings too. I don't think that's the perfect way to do it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
D
Go into the developer mode and you will see there if the current bluetooth connection is SMB, AptX, AptX-HD or whatever.

Question Permanently assign Bluetooth codecs to different receiver devices

The NP (1) supports all "Hi-Res" Bluetooth codecs such as aptx HD; aptx adaptive; LDAC or LHDC. I connect the NP (1) to these devices:
- Fiio UTWS 5 BT adapter - preferred codec: LHDC.
- iFi Zen Blue V2 BT receiver - preferred codec: LDAC
The two BT devices can be connected reliably and stably - but always with aptx Adaptive. The settings under "Connected devices" (cogwheel next to the device name of the connected device) only show aptx adaptive, which can be activated or deactivated. If aptx-Adaptive is deactivated, the SBC codec is used. And the audio quality is correspondingly lousy.
To change the codec, the only way is via the "Developer options", which is complicated and has to be done with every new connection.
How can I assign permanently the desired BT codec to a certain receiver device?
Thank you for your tips!
I was also stuck on this, there is an app called "Bluetooth codec changer" on google play that solved my problem by auto switch to my desired codec once my Bluetooth device connected. It's a premium feature that costs 2 bucks but totally worth it.
Thank you very much for the helpful advice. A really very good app (even if I think that the corresponding function should be implemented in the Nothing OS ...).
I am missing one function in the app: the different codecs should be able to be assigned to different BT receivers so that the phone with the corresponding codec can connect to the BT receiver. Or have I overlooked this function?
(Otherwise I would send a message to the developer with my thanks and the suggestion).
I agree with you, if I have more than one device, I think I will be wanting this too.
You can contact the developer through email and see if he can add it, he is really active and pushing updates to the app with improvements consistently.
I have sent the proposal for this function to the developer.
Awesome app! To people that might dont wanna pay for it, use the app Google Opinion Rewards
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.paidtasks
You gotta answer a few questions in the app, remember to remove any battery optimisation and make sure it can send you notification.
Took me from Saturday to today to get 19dkk(which is my currency) to pay for the app, basically free.
