I found a good example: here it is for the others:

https://chinaz.avgle8.com/a5527/16-3/igznopxua/groovelab/AndroidBleSample/tree/master/app

I added this line into the scan setting:

ScanSettings.Builder()
    .setLegacy(false)
    .setScanMode(ScanSettings.SCAN_MODE_LOW_LATENCY)
    .setReportDelay(scanDelay.toMillis())
    .setUseHardwareBatchingIfSupported(false)
    .setPhy(ScanSettings.PHY_LE_ALL_SUPPORTED).build()

Hi Avi

I should, of course, have provided a link to the Android Scanner Compatible library instead. I'm sorry about that. Please see the sample snippet for example code to start and stop scanning for reference, or check out the scanner source code in the scanner compatible library here.

Best regards,

Simon

I see the following comment in Android BLE Library:

The library does not provide support for scanning for Bluetooth LE devices. For scanning, we recommend using Android Scanner Compat Library which brings almost all recent features, introduced in Lollipop and later, to the older platforms.

So I plan to use the Scanner Compat Library

Do you have any existing App using this library? Can you share the source code?

Hi Avi

Please check out our Android BLE Library, which is can be used to develop an Android BLE scanner supporting Coded PHY (long range).

We don't have any source code (open or closed) that is specifically a BLE scanner with long range support, but maybe a user here on DevZone has any good suggestions. You might also want to check out some other forums (like the Android developer forum for example), as this request doesn't seem Nordic Semiconductor specific.

Best regards,

Simon
