addding services to ibeacon

[Ridhi]

i am trying to create ble beacon. I am able to advertise the ibeacon data using nRF5_SDK_17.0.2_d674dde\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon\pca10056\s140\arm5_no_packs

This is non connectable mode.

Now, i want to add service to this so that service is advertised. How to do as i know in connectable mode how to add service but  dont know in non connectable way.

This application can be used as a starting point to write an iBeacon application. The procedure for creating an iBeacon application and the specification should be available at mfi.apple.com. Once the specification is obtained, this application can be modified to fit the requirements of iBeacon.

my query is that the custom services we create can they be used in non connectable mode also. Because the tutorial is in connectable mode only but i want in non connectable mode display my services and characteristics. please help github.com/.../nRF5x-custom-ble-service-tutorial

[Joakim Jakobsen]

I don't see any reason for why it shouldn't work to use that service both in non connectable mode and connectable mode. 

As long as it is not specified that this shouldn't be done in the iBeacon specification that this is prohibited.

You just have to change the advertising type.

can u share an example where services and characteristics are in non connectable mode 

[Joakim Jakobsen]

Unsure if we have any out of the box examples in our SDK that demonstrates this. 

I'll try to find some time to create a simple example for you.
