 I have a strange issue, when I set the name of the bootloader dfu peripheral name, inside of sdk_config.h 
 #define NRF_DFU_BLE_ADV_NAME &amp;quot;DfuTarg&amp;quot; 
 
 When I scan for peripherals with all my phones, the name is correctly spelled DfuTarg

&lt;p&gt;If this only occurs with the Sony mobile, it does sound like there is an issue there.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Could you maybe test with another example like &amp;quot;&lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v15.0.0%2Fble_sdk_app_nus_eval.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;ble_app_uart&lt;/a&gt;&amp;quot; to confirm that the application on the peripheral side doesn&amp;#39;t matter regarding to this issue?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;#define NRF_DFU_BLE_ADV_NAME&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;We simply set the length to a name of 6 characters&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Strange characters in bluetooth peripheral name</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/138164?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 28 Jun 2018 14:34:27 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:e89c9e72-4fb3-4863-ad01-50e83b90f752</guid><dc:creator>Robert</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;It is from Android studio, I have the same issue with nRF Toolbox android app&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Strange characters in bluetooth peripheral name</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/138106?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 28 Jun 2018 12:16:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:60bf86c8-b478-488b-97c5-a67d892548b4</guid><dc:creator>Martin Lesund</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Robert,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On what application is this screenshot taken?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you see similar effect with the &lt;a href="http://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/Nordic-mobile-Apps/nRF-Connect-for-Mobile/(language)/eng-GB" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;nrf connect app&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
