if you check in nrf connect app flag and services. the byte will be 0x06. that is the value of both BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_LE_GENERAL_DISC_MODE and BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_BR_EDR_NOT_SUPPORTED. the two values are 0x02 and 0x04. so you should add both values to set a flag. so you should add both things and declare it in flag. so BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE is a addition of above things. you cant declare BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_LE_GENERAL_DISC_MODE directly in advertising packet

I tried, but changing the flag results in the same error (no advertising).

Not working either. The problem is that I always get an error indicating that the flag is an invalid parameter.

Hey, thanks for your comment, but what should I exactly modify here? I want to support EDR and don't know why this macro isn't working.

hi, try to modify this. #define BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE (BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_LE_GENERAL_DISC_MODE | BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_BR_EDR_NOT_SUPPORTED)
