LE Privacy not supported on Nexus devices?

[Elias]

I've been trying to track down a bug where a couple of my Central test devices, a Nexus 5 and 7 (Android 6.1), won't send a connection request to a peripheral they're bonded to. The problem disappears when I remove the use of BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_PRIVATE_RESOLVABLE in the peripheral's firmware.

Is there a Nordic example that uses a Random Private Resolvable Address? I'd like to make sure I'm not somehow using it incorrectly.

If anyone would like to try to replicate the problem:

• Get a Nexus device with nRF Connect (or somesuch)
• Get a peripheral that uses a Random Private Resolvable Address
• Connect and bond the devices
• Reset or disconnect the peripheral such that it uses a new (Resolvable) address
• Try to reconnect
• You should see the app hang and fail on the connection command, without seeing the event on the peripheral, or a corresponding packet with a sniffer

This thread explains how to set the nRF52 to use random private resolvable address. Except for the address setting/address property, the application will work exactly the same way as with random static address.

So basically it's so simple that it's not worth its own example? If I'm getting any effect out of that function call, it's safe to assume that I'm using it correctly?
