android - BLE Device Name irretrievable -

i have project scanning beacons run on ble.

i can scan beacon , list them in nice custom listview fine. retrieving names seems not work.

in onlescan callback use device.getname() appears returning null?

furthermore, when attempt parse scanrecord byte[] array data in concordance this post - still not having luck. ideas/tips?

should retrieving local name bluetoothdevice class? should retrieve parsing scanrecord/scanresult class?

here onlescan looks like:

public void onlescan(final bluetoothdevice device, int rssi, final byte[] scanrecord) {                  runonuithread(new runnable() {                     @override                     public void run() {                          log.v(device.getname(),device.getname());                             mledevicelistadapter.adddevice(device);                             mledevicelistadapter.notifydatasetchanged();                         }                       }                 });             } 

edit:

i attempted modification of code linked post. adding case 0x08: suggested in comments. listview still lists found devices "unknown device" default , not retrieve friendly name.

see this answer breakdown of ibeacon advertisement packet. there no name.

the official spec available via apple's mfi program.
