Changing the Advertising Name using NRF tool App

[Nitin Kumar]

Hi,

I am using NRF51822 pca10028 UART ble example ,

I need to give provision to change the name of the device after pairing and reset the device so that it starts advertising with the name provided by the user, 

Thank you

Hi,

This can be done in the following way: You have update the device's name over UART, store the new name in flash, and set the new device name after reset. 

The new device name is not automatically written to flash, it means that upon a reset, the device will have the original device name. If you want to store and re-store the updated device name upon a reset, you will have to do that manually using fstorage.

There are many threads discussing this topic already on the forum, I would suggest you use the search function to examples on how to do it :)
