question of add my own BLE service

[gootoomoon]

When I add a new server of my own service I got a problem. when I set

BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_ENC_NO_MITM(&cccd_md.write_perm);

I can send data to iOS normal,but when I connect to Android 4.4.4(Nexus7 II) it will return error 0x8 (Invalid state)

when I change it to this:

BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_OPEN(&cccd_md.write_perm);

Android data sent normal,but will cause service ias(service.immediate_alert) not work and iOS ias not work too.

So please help!

Below is code of mine to add characteristic

static uint32_t my_level_char_add(ble_my_t * p_bas, const ble_my_init_t * p_bas_init)
{
    uint32_t            err_code;
    ble_gatts_char_md_t char_md;
    ble_gatts_attr_md_t cccd_md;
    ble_gatts_attr_t    attr_char_value;
    ble_uuid_t          ble_uuid;
    ble_gatts_attr_md_t attr_md;
    uint8_t             initial_my_level;

    memset(&cccd_md, 0, sizeof(cccd_md));

    BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_OPEN(&cccd_md.read_perm);
    //BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_OPEN(&cccd_md.write_perm);
    BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_ENC_NO_MITM(&cccd_md.write_perm);
    cccd_md.vlen = 1;
    cccd_md.vloc       = BLE_GATTS_VLOC_STACK;


    memset(&char_md, 0, sizeof(char_md));

    char_md.char_props.read   = 1;
    char_md.char_props.notify = 1;
    char_md.p_char_user_desc  = NULL;
    char_md.p_char_pf         = NULL;
    char_md.p_user_desc_md    = NULL;
    char_md.p_cccd_md         = &cccd_md;
    char_md.p_sccd_md         = NULL;

    BLE_UUID_BLE_ASSIGN(ble_uuid, 0xFFE1);
    memset(&attr_md, 0, sizeof(attr_md));

    BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_OPEN(&attr_md.read_perm);
    BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_OPEN(&attr_md.write_perm);
		
    attr_md.vloc = BLE_GATTS_VLOC_STACK;
    attr_md.rd_auth    = 0;
    attr_md.wr_auth    = 0;
    attr_md.vlen       = 1;

    initial_my_level = 0x0;

    memset(&attr_char_value, 0, sizeof(attr_char_value));

    attr_char_value.p_uuid    = &ble_uuid;
    attr_char_value.p_attr_md = &attr_md;
    attr_char_value.init_len  = sizeof(uint8_t);
    attr_char_value.init_offs = 0;
    attr_char_value.max_len   = sizeof(uint8_t);
    attr_char_value.p_value   = &initial_my_level;

    err_code = sd_ble_gatts_characteristic_add(p_bas->service_handle, &char_md,
                                               &attr_char_value,
                                               &p_bas->my_handles);
    if (err_code != NRF_SUCCESS)
    {
        return err_code;
    }

    return NRF_SUCCESS;
}

I'm not sure why the IAS service is not working, but the CCCD must be writable and readable per the Core Spec, and you will get an error when trying to add it with different permissions. You want to change the permissions of the attr_md variable, which is linked to the attribute itself and not the CCCD.
