Libre 2 serial numbers can be misrepresented #2725

Open PhilTU opened 1 year ago

PhilTU commented 1 year ago

Discussed in https://github.com/NightscoutFoundation/xDrip/discussions/2716

Originally posted by **PhilTU** March 3, 2023 Someone said to me that UK/EU Libre 2 serial numbers start with a 3. Right now my sensor is reported by xDrip+ classic status page as ABBOTT0MH00.... whereas when it was working via the patched app it was reported there as ABBOTT3MH00.... I have seen at least one post where the status page didn't match the sensor box (someone posted a screenshot and a photo together). Is this a bug ? If the 3 does indicate a Libre 2 (?) it could be a useful diagnostic as sometimes the wrong type is issued.

Was this fixed in #2845 ? I have seen serial numbers starting with a 3.....

Do you mind closing this issue as it sounds like a question. We can use discussions for questions. Thanks

I can edit the title to "serial numbers are misrepresented" if this would be preferable.

The issue is not resolved. I had observed some correct reporting of 3MH serial numbers but my last sensor misreported as 0MH when it should have been 3.

It is possible the issue was fixed for the C5 sensor type in May revisions to OOP2 but it persists for "standard" L2 sensors.

OK,

It's just that usually, we have a discussion where we talk about something until it may become clear that we need to fix something, we can fix it in xDrip, and there are developers who believe there is no conflict between fixing it and the operation logic. I cannot find the discussions where this judgement was made.

I occasionally have to go over issues and get updates to make sure we don't have issues that should be closed and if we do, close them.

If we have 20 open issues and a new one is opened, the developers can see that something needs their attention. If we have hundreds of open issues and new one opens, no one may have a clue that anything needs their attention.
