Device:Nrf51822

SDK:SDK12.3

Device name consists of "scanner:" and four digits。But sometimes the device name display error。An extra character appears in the device name string。 As shown below:

  • Hello,

    What device do you use for listing the devices? I see that it is a phone from the picture, but what application does it use? Do you see the same in nRF Connect?

    What sort of devices are you Scanner:nnnn?¨Are they advertising their names? Or are you connecting to them to see the names?

     

    If they are advertising, can you please try to get a sniffer log when the name is displayed incorrectly?

     

    Best regards,
