Tusen takk Terje,

That's a good trick to know. I knew that you could add your own definitions, but not override the format for the standard services too.

Hi,

Thank you for reporting this. It is highly appreciated!

I have reported it internally, and the team will fix it.

As a temporary workaround, you can add the detection manually, in the UUID definitions file:

The entry needed for the Serial Number String characteristic should look like this:

    "uuid16bitCharacteristicDefinitions": {
        "2A25": {
            "name": "Serial Number String",
            "format": "TEXT"
        }
    },

Regards,
Terje
