NotifyDemoActivity confusion! #73

Closed mohitb117 closed 10 years ago

Hi , I am confused If i have something wrong in my understanding of beacons/region dynamics:-

once you select a beacon from the list activity, then the notifications for entering and exiting a region are agnostic to the beacon which we selected from the listactivity as they depend on the UUID , and as every estimote within a developer kit right now has the same UUID so it wont matter which beacon we choose to receive onEntered/onExited event command callbacks Its just a single beacon.

So my question is in the usage of beacons will involve changing the UUID of the each individual beacons so that you can monitor individual beacons rather than their collective group of three?

Also is there a recommended format of rewriting the UUID values of beacons?

Also more often i have problems connecting to the beacons, it takes a few tries. OnAuthenticationError callback triggers even if i am really close to a beacon.

Do you suggest we retry until we get a successful connection with a beacon or someother mechanism?

Take a closer look at the demo. Region is depending on uuid, major and minor values. Not by uuid alone.
