CC2541: BLE Stack v1.5.0 Pairing

Part Number: CC2541
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BLE-STACK,

Hi,

In release note(BLE-Stack Version 1.4.2, June 7, 2016),

TI recommends using BLE-Stack v1.4.1 or later to ensure pairing compatibility with Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) devices.

Do we need a Pairing in Android versions(Oreo, Nougat, Pie) to maintain better throughput?

Refer any guidance for implementing Pairing.

Hello Sadasivam,

I don't understand what you mean by:

"Do we need a Pairing in Android versions(Oreo, Nougat, Pie) to maintain better throughput?"

Pairing does not impact data throughput.

You can refer to the documentation:

Section "5.4.2 Using the GapBondMgr Profile" in the TI_BLE_Software_Developer's_Guide
API guide: file:///C:/Texas%20Instruments/BLE-CC254x-1.5.0.16/Documents/SMhtml/index.html
The GlucoseSensor example project which use pairing.

But, is pairing needed for all android versions?

No, the developer decides what level of security is needed.
