The HFP profile does not support MUTE feature. Please find the description
of AT+VGM command as per the HFP specification.

Syntax: AT+VGM=<gain>

Description:

This command is issued by the HF device to report its current microphone
gain level setting to the AG (phone). <gain> is a decimal numeric constant,
relating to a particular (implementation dependent) volume level controlled
by the HF device. *This command does not change the microphone gain of the
AG; it simply indicates the current value of the microphone gain in the HF
device*.

Values:

<gain>: 0 -15, entered as integer values, where

0 = Minimum gain [It does not mean mite but just that this is min mic gain]

15 = Maximum gain



So how does HF device implement the mute feature? When user enables mute
during a call from HF device (by pressing some key/s on the HF device), the
HF device simply cuts the mic input (typically setting the mic gain to
zero), and only silence goes to the AG and then to the remote device. As
AG+VGM=0 does not mean any thing to AG, it cannot assume that mute is
enabled by HF. Hence when you enable mute from HF, you must unmute from HF.
