Can you set the current Bluetooth profile using the External Accessory framework?

EAAccessory has a property that lets you specify protocol strings like com.myCompanyName.MyProtocolName. Does this mean that you can set the current Bluetooth profile using the External Accessory framework?

You cannot set the Bluetooth profile by External Accessory Framework. protocolString is for communicating with MFi accessory. When a Bluetooth MFi device is paired and connected with iPhone, it establishes a Wireless iAP profile and all bytes between the Bluetooth and iOS apps are transferred using this profile.

You cannot set the current Bluetooth profile using the External Accessory framework. This framework is only for communicating with Bluetooth or dock-connected devices in the Made for iPod program. See my answer here for more.

Unfortunately, there is no public way to access the Bluetooth stack programmatically on the iPhone.
