No LDAC on my Honor 10 8.1 with sony 1000xm2

Hello.
Sorry for my **** english at first!
for 3 years i had a galaxy s6 edge. Now i have a honor 10, with the newest updates.
I was in the developer settings
there is only sbc, aac, aptx, aptx HD and HWA
when i try "use system settings standard" or " optional codec" doesnt work either
I only get aptx hd. I also tryed all the other bluetooth settings under the codec settings.
It only shows aptx hd on the sony app and in bluetooth connections..
Why pls help, its one of the reasons why i bought the honor 10..

Bluetooth audio codec disabled

I'm trying to change Bluetooth audio settings on developer options, but they're all disables.
Anyone knows what happens or how to enable them?
Screenshot attached.
I think you have to be connected to one audio device to get those settings accessible, they're greyed out for me as well. As I'm still waiting for my Freebuds 2 to arrive, I haven't tried myself. One reported issue with this is that those settings do revert back each time you disconnect your device, thus you have to set them every damn time you want to connect your headset.
bluetooth and audio is terribe for this device... so out of sync
You do need to be connected to a Bluetooth device for those options to be selectable but it won't let you choose options that aren't supported be the connected device.
I think since Android Oreo Android automatically selects the highest quality codec that the connected device supports which is why the option to select a default codec is no longer there.
When a device is connected you can manually select options that are supported using the developer options.
I haven't had any Bluetooth issues with my M20P. Sound quality is fine, everything connects with no problems and there are no sync issues.
If someone is experiencing issues they might want to try booting into recovery and wiping the system cache.
My M20P connected more quickly to my car Bluetooth after I did that.

I have completely the opposite. This is the only phone you can watch netflix or youtube on through bluetooth which doesn't take the video and audio out of sync.
As for the OP, you can't force a bluetooth peripheral to use a coded it doesn't support.
BOSE for example uses AAC or SBC.
Ok mine are the jaybird runs .. work fine on every other device except this.
I have a range of bt devices. Two Fiio device with LDAC, Aptx-(HD) support and a Sony wh900n with the same. When connected is automatically uses LDAC (best available quality) , but in the Bluetooth setting I can switch to aptx-hd (more stable connection)

Enabling aptx

How do you enable aptx? I did it in developer options but it keeps jumping back to sbc. I am using a Sabbat E12 Ultra which has aptx.
Thank you.
Same issue. Did you find a solution? Thanks
The way i do it turn on Bluetooth make sure you dont connect to any Bluetooth device! Then jump into Dev options and select the codec i need, it works everytime..

Stratos: Bluetooth 4.0 to 4.2?? (Smart compatibilities)

Dear all,
I recently purchased Jabra Elite Sport Earphones. They have both headphone function and heart rate monitor function. The "in ear" hear rate function work great so I would like to use it directly with my stratos.
The watch is able to connect to the earphones but regarding the heart rate monitor, I can see it in the activity accessories but when I try to connect, it tries but then says "impossible to communicate with XXX".
The earphones are bluetooth 4.2 and the stratos is 4.0. From various investigations, I could find that the 4.2 bluetooth specifications add various points regarding GATT profiles for bluetooth smart devices. I guess then the stratos is unable to connect because it is only 4.0 and not 4.2.
My question is then: is there any possibility to upgrade the watch to bluetooth 4.2? At least for what concerns software issues (my case here).
I installed Paceficator ROM expecting those new bluetooth profiles would be implemented but unfortunately not. Those, I guess, are available in the stratos 3 firmware as it is said as compatible Bluetooth 4.2 + BLE 5.0
I hope you will be able to help!
Thanks!
Edit 21/03:
I added 3 screenshot of the device scanned with my phone and Apps BLE Scanner and Bluetooth Scanner
I contacted Jabra too but they punted the issue telling they provide support for Smartphone usage and not smartwatch..
Have you enabled Bluetooth Smart in your Jabra Elite Sport Earphones before you tried to connect them with your watch? You should press and hold your right "bud" for about 10 sec.

Hello Zdune,
Thank you for taking care of my issue. I tried your trick. I heard "bluetooth Smart disconnected" and then in the watch/ Activity/ Accessories, the device was not appearing anymore.
I pressed again for 10s to reactivate and I could find again the device. But, trying to connect, it still says "unable to communicate with XX"
When the device is detected in the watch/Activity/ Accessories, it still shows a headset logo and not a heart rate logo. When I scan the device with my phone for bluetooth smart, it shows a heart rate logo. I think the watch is making confusion between the Classic Bluetooth function (headset) and the Smart function (health device). I don't know whether it is due to : 1) watch bluetooth version (4.0 instead of 4,2), 2) watch software issue, 3) headset software issue.
I hope someone can help.
