Testing device with IOS ibeacon broadcast #155

Closed afshawnlotfi closed 4 years ago

afshawnlotfi commented 5 years ago

Hi, I really like this project and got it setup on my nexus 7. I am using my iphone to broadcast an iBeacon using this test project (https://github.com/Darktt/iBeacon-Demo), and I set the UUID to "03253fdd-55cb-44c2-a1eb-80c8355f8291" and "acfd065e-c3c0-11e3-9bbe-1a514932ac01" but the demo app doesn't recognize either one. Could someone please help me get started here. Really want to contribute because this project is amazing!

Hey, glad you're interested in this project. Unfortunately there's currently no real getting started guide available, you can track the progress in #89.

The UUID 03253fdd-55cb-44c2-a1eb-80c8355f8291 is correct, it should at least show up in the chart view. The other views may be empty because there's no matching LocationProvider for your major & minor combination (refer to #144).

I would suggest using the nRF Connect app to check if your iPhone is actually advertising valid iBeacon frames.
