robkers1993 opened a new issue #703: Beacons Picked up by Iphone but not Android
URL: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-nimble/issues/703
 
 
   Hi All!
   
   TLDR: Why can I not receive this packet on Android devices (4 devices 
tested), but Iphones are fine (two Iphones tested)? Did I set a super obvious 
setting wrong?

   I'm running the BLE peripheral example in the apps folder. CRC is 3 bytes, 
whitening seed looks allright, 
   
   Longer situation sketch:
   
   I'm porting my radio driver to the Nimble Radio Driver (so adding it next to 
native, nrf51,nrf52). I have a stable beaconing environment, so I would like to 
connect to a device and get interact with a service. My Iphone is able to 
receive beacons. The problem starts when I want to connect to it. I have never 
received a SCAN REQ or CONN REQ from my phone. I've printed all incoming data 
with a filter on pdu_type on these two types of messages (0x03 and 0x05). In an 
effort to see whether or not my phone is functioning correctly I tested the 
same scenario with a borowed iphone 11 pro max (yeezzz, these things are 
unwieldy coming from an Iphone SE.... anyhow...). This phone picked it up with 
no effort.
   Then tested a lot of other hypotheses, without any luck of getting a SCAN 
REQ or CONN REQ. Then, I grabbed 4 Android devices from my colleagues and 
tested the same thing. BANG: devices do not show up using something like NRF 
Connect. 
   Also, grabbed a ESP32 and ran the BLE scan example. My Nimble device is 
picked up without an effort. 
   
   I hope anyone out there has an idea about this. I've got the feeling that 
one of the fields/flags are set incorrectly. Below the settings from the 
"bleperiph" example. 
   
   Cheers!
