Different Names in ATAK #156

Closed Brechtl86 closed 1 year ago

The device name in ATAK and on TBeam are different. For example: my TBeam is called ebe4 and ATAK calls it ebe6. This is the case with two devices and it is always the last digit.

Thanks for reporting this but it can't be fixed. T-Beams use a Bluetooth address that is 2 higher than the address used in the Meshtastic device ID. My plugin only has access to the Bluetooth address but not the device type, so I can't know whether to reduce the address by 2 or not.
