Support bluetooth renaming #54

Closed FederAndInk closed 3 years ago

FederAndInk commented 3 years ago

When I renamed my Pinetime to distinguish it from others that I have, I wasn't able to pair it. Could it be possible to choose from the Bluetooth discovery list? Or keep/specify an address?

theironrobin commented 3 years ago

you changed the source code of infinitime to make your device advertise under a different name?

FederAndInk commented 3 years ago

Actually, I just renamed it in the Bluetooth parameters (on KDE Plasma, but I think we can do that on Gnome).

post steps to reproduce and i will take a look.

  1. Pair the Pinetime 2021-06-11_16-48
  2. Go to the paired device settings 2021-06-11_16-50
  3. Rename it 2021-06-11_16-51 2021-06-11_16-52
  4. Disconnect it 2021-06-11_16-53
  5. Siglo can't find the pinetime (I've disconnected it) 2021-06-11_16-54

Siglo finds it again if I reconnect it, rename it to InfiniTime precisely, disconnect it, then lunch Siglo

2021-06-11_17-05 well, the main point is to make use of the name, because it's not useful at this moment if I understand correctly, because it will always show "InfiniTime"
