that issue will never get solved, too many users using a wide variety of different devices.

BTW device name is transmitted but its up to the device if it wants to transmit a name, typically it takes the BT device name but every android device here is different.

See this comment on some research done on this by the library that we use: https://github.com/home-assistant/android/pull/2941#issuecomment-1272379540
