Add C019 16-bit Bluetooth UUID Add Android as a "bridge" workaround for iOS-iOS background discoverability issue

hdevalence commented 4 years ago

Thanks!

@zssz separately to this PR (merging it now), would you be willing to write a little bit more of an introduction / overview of the concepts in the Bluetooth part? Right now the content is just copied from the Google doc, which assumed knowledge of Bluetooth.

zssz commented 4 years ago

Yes, I'll do that. Stay tuned.

hdevalence commented 4 years ago

Awesome! I'll make an issue to keep track.

pzboyz commented 4 years ago

The value 0xC019 is a 16bit UUID and is therefore its usage is controlled by the BTSIG.

Has the TCN Coalition obtained permission to us this value from BTSIG? If not, then devices using this value are not conforming to BTSIG qualification requirements and the implications that may have.

scottleibrand commented 4 years ago

Not yet AFAIK. What implications would that have?
