Go2007 , via OnePlus 7T , Jul 12, 2020 : In my 7T i am unable to change Bluetooth Audio codec from SBC to Qualcomm aptx HD. Please suggest the way forward.

You cannot select it forcibly if your bluetooth device does not support thst particular codec and other features. Check headphonezone.in , they got codec aptx HD and other logo beside headphones if they have it. Thanks

redv12 , Jul 20, 2020 : I have the same issue as Go2007 on a fresh out of box 7T Pro updated to latest OS. My headphones Sony WH-1000XM3s are able to connect to LDAC, aptx HD, etc. How do I get the phone to connect using any Bluetooth codec besides SBC? Developer options settings do not stick after exiting the developer screen.
Horsault , Jul 20, 2020 : As you've no doubt read in your Sony user's manual, Sony devices must be connected through dedicated app to give all their potential.
chris.walker , Jul 21, 2020 : It's a bug that was fixed in Open Beta 3, but still hasn't made it into the official OTA update yet. In the meantime, there is a workaround to get your selections to stick in Developer Options... Change one of the other Bluetooth settings first, e.g. change the Sample Rate from 98KHz to 88KHz, THEN make your selection (e.g. set your codec, or change LDAC audio quality to 'Optimized For Audio Quality'), then change the Sample Rate back to 98KHz. Your selections should now stick when you leave the Developer Options menu. Unfortunately, after disconnecting your Bluetooth device, it reverts back again, so you have to do this every time you connect your Bluetooth device.
