Hello.
I am scanning ble beacon using lbs services. But I can't access the UUID and ID of the devices, which way should I follow for this.
Hello,
Your beacon, is it running the ble_app_beacon example from SDK\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon?
If that is the case, then the reason you don't see the UUID and ID of the beacon is that this is not a standardized advertising packet. The beacon is using a proprietary data field and just packs all the data inside of that proprietary field, which is 21 (=0x15) bytes long (APP_BEACON_UUID + APP_MAJOR_VALUE + APP_MONOR_VALUE + APP_MEASURED_RSSI)
Can you show me how you are currently searching for these values? If I know a bit more about how you set it up, I can help you find the values that you are looking for.
Best regards,
Edvin
İşaretçiniz, SDK\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon'dan ble_app_beacon örneğini mi çalıştırıyor?
Yes but there is a different part. Contains the adv_phy_update section. I am adding this part here.

This code is my beacon advertising device code. But while I scanning phy coded, I want to scanned device ID and advertising data. Using db discovery and ble gatt, I want keep data and sending by uart. Are there any examples for this?
I forgot to tell you. By the way I stopped using lbs.
I forgot to tell you. By the way I stopped using lbs.
I think you should focus on one thing at the time. Are you able to "access the UUID and ID" when you are not using coded phy?
Also, assuming that your advertisements are OK:
But I can't access the UUID and ID of the devices, which way should I follow for this.
What are you using to scan, and what do you see?
