Bluetooth Peripheral ADVERTISE_FAILED_DATA_TOO_LARGE

Question

I am trying to advertise in NEXUS 9 and getting the error of ADVERTISE_FAILED_DATA_TOO_LARGE. It was working perfectly fine when I was adding the service after successfully

Answer 1

I suspect that this is the line of code causing the trouble:

advertiseData.setIncludeDeviceName(true);

The advertisement will not have enough space for both the device name and a 16 byte service UUID. So if you include the above then add:

advertiseData.addServiceUuid(new ParcelUuid(serviceUUID)); 

You will get the error you describe. Try removing the first line.
