Thanks Johannes. This would be better option to change PID in firmware
as blacklisting 3002 might create problems for 3011 chipsets.
What would be the problem with 3011? Does it also use the 3002 ID, but
not use firmware upload???

johannes

AR3011 when plugged-in uses PID 3000 and control goes to DFU driver [ath3k].
ath3k downloads the firmware to the device changing its PID to 3002.
Now btusb gets the control and attaches the device to bluetooth core.

So blacklisting 3002 in btusb will create issues for AR3011 chipsets.
In firmware if we change the PID from 3002 to 3003 as you suggested and blacklist 3002 in btusb
we can make both devices work.

Bala.
