I have Ibeacon scanning app which use CoreBluetooth. I want to use my real android device as an beacon. I can scan my Ibeacons but can not found my android device.
import Foundation
import CoreBluetooth
public class BeaconScanning: NSObject, BKCentralDelegate{
let central = BKCentral()
override init(){
super.init()
central.delegate = self
do {
let serviceUUID = CBUUID(string: "FF80") // For my used Ibeacon Service Data
let characteristicUUID = CBUUID( )
let configuration = BKConfiguration(dataServiceUUID: serviceUUID, dataServiceCharacteristicUUID: characteristicUUID) // Configration for scanning
try central.startWithConfiguration(configuration)
} catch let error { }
central.scanContinuouslyWithChangeHandler({ changes, discoveries in }, stateHandler: { newState in }, duration: 2, inBetweenDelay: 0.1, beaconHandler: { beacons in
for beacon in beacons! {
// get beacons properties
}
}, errorHandler: { error in })
}
public func central(_ central: BKCentral, remotePeripheralDidDisconnect remotePeripheral: BKRemotePeripheral) {
}
}
I can scan my Ibeacon devices in IOS app. But, it cannot be found when I use my Android device as Ibeacon using AltBeacon.
Beacon beacon = new Beacon.Builder().
.setId1("e2c56db5-dffb-48d2-b060-d0f5a71096e0") //uuid the same my Ibeacon
.setId2("0")
.setId3("0")
.setManufacturer(0x0118)
.setTxPower(-59)
.setDataFields(Arrays.asList(new Long[] {0l}))
.build();
BeaconParser beaconParser = new BeaconParser()
.setBeaconLayout("m:2-3=beac,i:4-19,i:20-21,i:22-23,p:24-24,d:25-25"); //altbeacon layout for parser transmitting as a beacon
BeaconTransmitter beaconTransmitter = new BeaconTransmitter(getApplicationContext(), beaconParser);
beaconTransmitter.startAdvertising(beacon);
Using CoreLocation:
Beacon beacon = new Beacon.Builder()
.setManufacturer(0x004c) // Use Ibeacon Manufacturer
.setId1("e2c56db5-dffb-48d2-b060-d0f5a71096e0")
.setId2("0")
.setId3("0")
.setTxPower(-59)
.setDataFields(Arrays.asList(new Long[] {0l}))
.build();
BeaconParser beaconParser = new BeaconParser()
.setBeaconLayout("m:2-3=0215,i:4-19,i:20-21,i:22-23,p:24-24,d:25-25");//BeaconLayout startwith ("m:2-3=0215)
BeaconTransmitter beaconTransmitter = new BeaconTransmitter(getApplicationContext(), beaconParser);
beaconTransmitter.startAdvertising(beacon);
