 my application is build based on the mulitrole example. The device name is somehow limited to 4 letters. 
 I checked: 
 init.advdata.name_type = BLE_ADVDATA_FULL_NAME 
 #define BLE_GAP_DEVNAME_MAX_LEN 248 
 Do you have any ideas what</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Sat, 18 Dec 2021 12:46:46 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/82868/device-name-has-only-4-letters" /><item><title>RE: Device name has only 4 letters</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/344221?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sat, 18 Dec 2021 12:46:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:172b3eb1-1c34-4a7b-96b2-d267a7a43513</guid><dc:creator>Hani_Montana</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Yes I followed and it worked, but the problem with the 4 letters is still there.

&lt;p&gt;I found that it&amp;#39;s a duplicated case from&lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/support-private/support/281349"&gt; this case.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;Have you followed the suggestion from Sam &amp;amp; Rob ?&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note that the maximum advertising packet size is 31 bytes this is including the flags and overhead. So if you have other data in the advertising packet, you may not have many left for the device name.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
