nRF52840 DK - beacon data of 20 bytes + full device name

[Vivek_Core]

Hi,

I am using nRF52840 DK with SDK [nRF5_SDK_16.0.0_98a08e2]. Using example "ble_app_beacon" and i can see the result of the same in nRF connect android app.

Now i want to add Full device name in this example. How can i do that ?

Thanks

Hi Amanda,

Yes if i remove manufacturer specific data then FULL_NAME works. But i want both together, manufacturer data and FULL_NAME.

Hi, 

Please be aware that the size of the manufacturer data is limited by the maximum size of the advertising packet, and also what other data is in the advertising packet.

e.g. if you use a long name, and/or a 128-bit service, etc in your advertising packet, there will be less spare for the manufacturer data.
