 I am developing a beacon using the long range feature of BT5. In order to do so, I added the line m_adv_params.primary_phy = BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED in advertising_init(). I see the beacon in the nRF Connect Android App. This raises two questions:</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 24 Oct 2018 10:28:43 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/39749/bt5-long-range-feature-and-nrf-connect-scanning" /><item><title>RE: BT5 long range feature and nRF Connect scanning</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/154244?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Oct 2018 10:28:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:8972231b-1531-4717-a6ca-dc63fe0e428d</guid><dc:creator>AndreasF</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi.&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]Is the 150kbps or the 500kbps mode used ?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Which SDK and SoftDevice have you used?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In SDK 15.0 with SoftDevice 6.0.0 it always 125 kbps,&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;not 150 kbps or 500 kbps&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]My smartphone is not BT5-compatible, I was not expecting to see the beacon using it. Does it mean that the configuration of the beacon was not properly done ?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Then the configuration is not correct, you should not be able to see CODED_PHY advertiser on a non BT5 phone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
