Samsung phone doesn't allow some beacons

Hello all,

I am running "ble_app_beacon" example code in nrf52832. when i'm using samsung and honor mobile phones the nrf Connect application is not showing the beacon, but in other phones the application is showing the beacon. I can't understand what is happening in samsung mobile please solve my problem so that the beacon in shown in all mobile phones.

  • Thank you for the information. While I ask around and try to get my hands on one of these Samsung phones, please confirm that you tried to disable and enable the location permissions for the nRFConnect app. Is it always the same devices that you can't find using the Samsung phones, or is this random as well? Have you ever been able to discover more than 5 beacons?

    Best regards,

    Simon

    EDIT: I'm having some trouble finding these exact phones, so if you could mention more phones with this problem, please do!

    EDIT 2: What Android version is on the phones you're having trouble with?

  • Yes I tried enabling and disabling  location permissions while scanning. And yes its always the same beacons while scanning it is not random. And also, I mentioned 5 beacons to give you an idea of what is happening, it can become 6 also, the issue is that some beacons not showing.I had only 2 samsung mobiles with me, M20 and M30  and both uses android version 9.
