Hi,
Recently I updated my SoftDevice on beacon from 7.1.0 to 8.0.0. Unfortunately, I met the same problem with advertising timeout which I faced with in SD 7.1.0, but the solution which worked for the older SD: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../ doesn't work for SD 8.0.0 anymore.
The question is: how to turn off advertising timeout in SD 8.0.0?
My advertising_init function:
static void advertising_init(void)
{
uint32_t err_code;
ble_advdata_t advdata;
uint8_t flags = BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE;//BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_LIMITED_DISC_MODE;
ble_uuid_t adv_uuids[] = {{LBS_UUID_SERVICE, BLE_UUID_TYPE_BLE}};
// Build and set advertising data
memset(&advdata, 0, sizeof(advdata));
advdata.name_type = BLE_ADVDATA_FULL_NAME;
advdata.include_appearance = true;
advdata.flags = BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE;
advdata.uuids_complete.uuid_cnt = sizeof(adv_uuids) / sizeof(adv_uuids[0]);
advdata.uuids_complete.p_uuids = adv_uuids;
ble_adv_modes_config_t options = {0};
options.ble_adv_fast_enabled = BLE_ADV_FAST_ENABLED;
options.ble_adv_fast_interval = APP_ADV_INTERVAL;
options.ble_adv_fast_timeout = APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS;
err_code = ble_advertising_init(&advdata, NULL, &options, on_adv_evt, NULL);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
}
