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

Have you tried with nRF Connect? Do you see the same issue?

As i said in the post it  works on NRF tool app but i need the updated  name to be displayed in normal Bluetooth setting.Is there any other method

Thank you,

Before updating the name via UART, do you get the correct name up in the Bluetooth settings on your phone? 

The app get the name from the advertisement packet, while the bluetooth settings get the name using this function BluetoothDevice.getName(). This method just returns the name for this device from the cache. It seems like the issue might be that the cache doesn't get cleared.
