Looking for an example of iBeacon with services that allow configuration of the settings

[Avi]

Hi

Strange that there is no example for such popular code which will allow changing the iBeacon setting parameters (like: name, power, interval etc).  with a smartphone application

Is there any examle in your github? Relevent for 52832 and/or 52840?

Thanks,

Avi

iBeacon is specified/owned by Apple: https://developer.apple.com/ibeacon/ 

From my understanding the iBeacon values are fixed (set during development) and the iBeacon is not connectable, thereby connecting and altering them seems to be something that is not a normal use case.

So, if you need to change any of the values, then I assume you would need to solve this in some proprietary way, for instance some user interface where the device could enter some kind of configuration mode that allowed a mobile phone to connect. I guess that is something you would need to develop based on one of the other BLE peripheral examples and a proprietary app.

I understand the issue of ibeacon spec.

So I modify my question:

Can you give an example of A low power connectable BLE device which advertise some data and can change it via Android application?

I.e the data is saved in the flash each time it is modified by the Android app.

Sorry, not aware of such example.

I would recommend to start with the BLE blinky or UART application, but instead of writing to a LED or UART, then you would need to write to flash:
