iphone can not get ibeacon's data when in "background mode"

[yzau26]

I am trying to build a ibeacon device, but when iphone in "background mode", it can not get data from ibeacon device. I used test code :examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon. What's wrong with the test code?

@yzau You should probably read this

stackoverflow.com/.../ibeacon-notification-when-the-app-is-not-running

I also suspect that as you mention getting data from your beacon, then its not operating as a iBeacon, as iBeacon's do not send any data apart from things like their major and minor ID
