Hi Disgy

According to one of our Android developers this parameter should work fine, even if the name implies that it only works for extended advertising. He did some tests to verify that it works also with legacy advertising.

Have you done any tests on your end to see if the parameter works or not?

Best regards

Hi Torbjørn

Thank you for this information. I searched this parameter before, but I am using Legacy Advertise in the application. I don't find the similar information for Legacy Advertise. Are there have parameters or methods to set Legacy Advertise number of events?

Sorry for not describe the question clearly at first.

Best regards

Hi Disgy

As long as you target Android 8 or newer there should be a parameter you can use for this, in the startAdvertisingSet(..) function:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/le/BluetoothLeAdvertiser#startAdvertisingSet(android.bluetooth.le.AdvertisingSetParameters,%20android.bluetooth.le.AdvertiseData,%20android.bluetooth.le.AdvertiseData,%20android.bluetooth.le.PeriodicAdvertisingParameters,%20android.bluetooth.le.AdvertiseData,%20int,%20int,%20android.bluetooth.le.AdvertisingSetCallback)

If you set the maxExtendedAdvertisingEvents parameter to something larger than 0, then the advertising should stop after this number of events.

Best regards

I use Android Studio to do programming, and want to write the app for advertise. I see the nRF connect app can set the advertising event numbers, but I can not stop and count my advertise events number in my app. I don't know what's wrong in my code.

Best regards,

What kind of device are you programming?

Is it some kind of Nordic development kit, or something else?

In the Bluetooth world Java development is usually only used on the Android side.
