Hi,

I am using the observer example which is quite good but i also want to see the manufacturing data of the advertising packet, i tried adding the buf->data for the net_buf_simple data type but this is not giving me what i would expect. below is the data i received:

[DEVICE]: 58:7B:5B:46:0B:41 (random), AD evt type 0, Tx Pwr: 127, RSSI -41 Data status: 0, AD data len: 31 Name: William's S21 C:1 S:1 D:0 SR:0 E:0 Pri PHY: LE 1M, Sec PHY: No packets, Interval: 0x0000 (0 ms), SID: 255, buf data 536901229

is there a way to print the advertising data manufacturing data?

thanks,

William

Hello again, William

I just wanted to let you know that I attempted to replicate the behavior you reported by using the nRF Connect for Smartphones application to set up an advertiser with the manufacturer specific datafield, and then use the nRF Sniffer tool to verify that the advertising was correctly populated.
In my test everything behaved as expected, and so the manufacturer specific datafield was present and populated with the data input to the nRF Connect for Smartphone application.

Do you have any additional information or steps that I could take to reproduce?
If not then I will close this ticket since your original issue has been resolved (but you can of course always open another ticket in the future if you should have any other questions!).

Best regards,
Karl
