![]() This updates the minimal supported version of CMake to 3.16, which in turn enables us to use more CMake features and have a cleaner build system. This is the version that provides most new features and also the one we use in our latest docker image for CI. |

Hands-Free Client
This example is to show how to use the APIs of Hands-Free Client Component and the effects of them by providing a set of commands. You can use this example to communicate with a device that implements Hands-Free Audio Gateway (HF-AG) (e.g. a smartphone).
This demo sends back the audio data back to the HFP AG device, so you can hear your own voice when you link this demo with your HFP-AG device.
How to use example
Hardware Required
This example is designed to run on commonly available ESP32 development board, e.g. ESP32-DevKitC. To operate it should be connected to an AG running on a smartphone or on another ESP32 development board loaded with Hands Free Audio Gateway (hfp_ag) example from ESP-IDF.
Configure the project
Open the project configuration menu:
idf.py menuconfig
Special Configurations for HFP
Data Path
ESP32 HFP supports two types of audio datapath: PCM and HCI.
The default configuration is PCM
, if you want to use vHCI
you should configure the data path before building and downloading the binary.
-
PCM
: To use PCM, audio stream is directed from Bluetooth controller to the specific GPIO pins you set in the demo, and you should link these GPIO pins to a speaker via I2S port. The audio data will not go through theBluedroid
. In menuconfig, you should choose PCM inmenuconfig
:Component config --> Bluetooth controller --> BR/EDR Sync(SCO/eSCO) default data path --> PCM
and also
Component config --> Bluetooth --> Bluedroid Options --> Hands Free/Handset Profile --> audio(SCO) data path --> PCM
. -
vHCI
: To use vHCI, audio data stream will be directed from Bluetooth Controller through vHCI on ESP32 and go through the Bluedroid to the Application layer. In menuconfig, you should choose vHCI inmenuconfig
:Component config --> Bluetooth controller --> BR/EDR Sync(SCO/eSCO) default data path --> HCI
and also
Component config --> Bluetooth --> Bluedroid Options --> Hands Free/Handset Profile --> audio(SCO) data path --> HCI
.
Codec Choice
ESP32 supports two types of codec for HFP audio data: CVSD
and mSBC
.
CVSD
is the default setting and is also the widely used codec for voice audio. But, mSBC
is designed to have a better voice quality through HFP
. To select which one is in use, we provide Wide Band Speech
item in the menuconfig
path:
Component config --> Bluetooth --> Bluedroid Options --> Wide Band Speech
.
Switching on the Wide Band Speech
means that the prefered codec is mSBC
, but which one is actually being used also depends on the Data Path
configuration.
-
If you choose
PCM
for datapath, you can only useCVSD
and hardware is responsible for the codec job. In the meanwhile, you cannot usemSBC
by switchingWide Band Speech
on, because themSBC
is implemented in the Bluedroid (Bluetooth Host Stack) by software. -
If you choose
vHCI
for datapath withWide Band Speech
on, codec job is done in the Bluedroid and mSBC is being used. -
If you choose
vHCI
for datapath withWide Band Speech
off, hardware is responsible for the codec job andCVSD
is in use.
Build and Flash
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)
(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-]
.)
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

Scenarios for Audio Connection
- Answer an incoming call
- Enable voice recognition
- Dial an outgoing call
Scenarios for Audio Disconnection
- Reject an incoming call
- Disable the voice recognition
Choise of Codec
ESP32 supports both CVSD and mSBC codec. HF Unit and AG device determine which codec to use by exchanging features during service level connection. The choice of codec also depends on the your configuration in menuconfig
.
Since CVSD is the default codec in HFP, we just show the scenarios using mSBC:
- If you enable
BT_HFP_WBS_ENABLE
inmenuconfig
, mSBC will be available. - If both HF Unit and AG support mSBC and
BT_HFP_WBS_ENABLE
is enabled, ESP32 chooses mSBC. - If you use PCM data path, mSBC is not available.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter any problems, please check if the following rules are followed:
- You should type the command in the terminal according to the format described in the commands help table.
- Not all commands in the table are supported by AG device like Hands Free Audio Gateway (hfp_ag) example from ESP-IDF.
- If you want to use
con
to establish a service level connection with specific AG device, you should add the MAC address of the AG device inbt_app.c
, for example:esp_bd_addr_t peer_addr = {0xb4, 0xe6, 0x2d, 0xeb, 0x09, 0x93};
- Use
esp_hf_client_register_callback()
andesp_hf_client_init();
before establishing a service level connection.
Example Breakdown
Due to the complexity of HFP, this example has more source files than other bluetooth examples. To show functions of HFP in a simple way, we use the Commands and Effects scheme to illustrate APIs of HFP in ESP-IDF.
- The example will respond to user command through UART console. Please go to
console_uart.c
for the configuration details. - For voice interface, ESP32 has provided PCM input/output signals which can be mapped to GPIO pins. So, please go to
gpio_pcm_config.c
for the configuration details. - If you want to update the command table, please refer to
