Max length of the device name in nRF52832?

[Risto]

Hello, Is it possible to have 170 characters long device name somehow to the nRF52832 so that standard Android phones are able to see it without any pairing or any other special actions? If yes, how to do it? I have the Nordic_HRM code and am able to modify it if just get some simple sample test code.

Yes. You can set the BLE device name of 170 characters. But you wont be able to get the complete device name without connecting to the device first because the advertisement packet can only contain user payload of upto 29bytes.
