&lt;p&gt;Answear to your questions:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Does softdevice make some special validation of characteristics if I use UUID from assigned (and maybe reserved) range?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The SoftDevice does not do an validation check on that UUID.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is it possible with softdevise to use that UUID (0x2B01) for my custom service?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The error code NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM is not related to the validation check.&lt;/p&gt;
