Bluetooth device name unable to resolve in Pycom

[sailaja]

I am using WiPy 2.0 Pycom Board.

When trying to resolve the names of the available devices the names are not resolved properly.

bluetooth.resolve_adv_data(adv.data,Bluetooth.ADV_NAME_CMPL)

This line prints the following data.

When print the short name

bluetooth.resolve_adv_data(adv.data,Bluetooth.ADV_NAME_SHORT)
It prints out "None"

How to get the proper name of the scanned devices. I am new to this

Thank you!

Hi @sailaja,

bt.resolve_adv_data(adv.data, Bluetooth.ADV_NAME_CMPL) prints the name of the advertisement for me. (tested it with 2 LoPys) What do you get when you print it?

What devices are you trying to find? You could also try using the manufacturer data (bt.resolve_adv_data(adv.data, Bluetooth.ADV_MANUFACTURER_DATA))

Using manufacturer data, we can get the proper data from the sensor.

mfg_data = bluetooth.resolve_adv_data(adv.data, Bluetooth.ADV_MANUFACTURER_DATA)
advData = binascii.hexlify(mfg_data)
