Restoration
by Darren Jones 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

I filed a bug report about the fact that peripheral and central restoration didn't work after a reboot. (Possibly by design) Today I got an update asking if it's now working in the latest beta. I haven't updated my device to the beta yet (and might not) so was wondering if anyone else could check and see if restoration now works after reboot? It would be great of it did. Could open a lot more possibilities. Thanatos Darren Sent from my iPhone _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Hi Anand I’m not sure I understand you question but I was able to use Passkey bonding with my device and iOS 6 and 7 without joining the MfI program. I just configured my device to support bonding and MITM protection and that it provides a keyboard or a display. Then, if iOS tries to read an attribute that requires encryption or authentication, the bonding process would start. best matthias On 08.01.2014, at 14:38, Anand Singh <anandfortech(a)icloud.com> wrote: > Are you sure that you do not need to support Bluetooth connection using MFi based program?

Are you sure that you do not need to support Bluetooth connection using MFi based program? As far as I know, only MFi based can support the authentication (i.e. when pairing, it asks for confirmation) Best, Anand On Jan 6, 2014, at 10:00 PM, bluetooth-dev-request(a)lists.apple.com wrote: > Send Bluetooth-dev mailing list submissions to > bluetooth-dev(a)lists.apple.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/bluetooth-dev > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > bluetooth-dev-request(a)lists.apple.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > bluetooth-dev-owner(a)lists.apple.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Bluetooth-dev digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Hi again following up on my own post: just scrap it. On iOS 6.1.4 and 7.0.4, bonding using a passkey works as expected for both a display only or a keyboard only device.

iOS 7 pairing behavior on reconnection
by Ringwald Matthias 06 Jan '14

Hi all I’m developing a BLE peripheral and testing the Security Manager of my device. Either there’s a bug in IOS, or I miss something here.. :) It is set to request security by sending a SMP Security Request after the connection gets established. For the first connection, this triggers the Bonding procedure and results in the key distribution as expected. On the second connection, the device gets an LTK request which it answers with the LTK established before and the connection gets encrypted. After that, a Pairing Request is received. Upon answering with a Pairing Response, iOS sends a SMP Pairing Failed, Unknown Reason (0x08) back. I would either expect not to receive a Pairing Request, or, at least repeat the complete procedure. What do I miss here? The packet log from the device here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5138628/LE-reconnect.pklg Best Matthias _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

BLE Authentication and Authorization
by Ringwald Matthias 06 Jan '14

06 Jan '14

Hi As far as I know, iOS CoreBluetooth only supports Just Works bonding and therefor a connection cannot be authenticated. Are authenticated connections possible on OS X? If not, what do others use to test BLE authentication and/or authorization? Best Mathias _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
