Android Question BLE2 write not getting to RN4871 connected to micro

[dxptech]

I'm using the BLE example. I added a button to send a "G" cr to a connected RN4871 microchip BLE module connected to a micro thru a uart. When the micro receives a "G" cr, it turns on an led. I know the RN4871/micro works because I've sent "G" cr from the Microchip App and, with the BLE Ext library example, but, I can't seem to get the BLE2 example to work.
Here is the code:

Sub Process_Globals
    Public manager As BleManager2
    Public currentStateText As String = "UNKNOWN"
    Public currentState As Int
    Public connected As Boolean = False
    Public ConnectedName As String
    Private ConnectedServices As List
    Public rp As RuntimePermissions
    Public DATA_SERVICE As String = "49535343-fe7d-4ae5-8fa9-9fafd205e455" 'data service for RN-BLE RN4871, write to pc
    Public DATA_UART_RX As String = "49535343-8841-43f4-a8d4-ecbe34729bb3" 'write writenoresponse
    Public DATA_UART_TX As String = "49535343-1e4d-4bd9-ba61-23c647249616" 'write writenoresponse Notify Indicate, THIS AS 'SET.NOTIFY'
    
End Sub

Public Sub WriteData()
    Dim d() As Byte
    d(0)=0x47    'G
    d(1)=0x0d    'cr
    
    manager.WriteData(DATA_SERVICE,DATA_UART_TX,d)
End Sub

Sub Service_Create
    manager.Initialize("manager")
End Sub

The WriteData is called from main when a send button is clicked, which I press after Scan and Connect button and a connection has been made.

Are you handling the WriteComplete event? What is the value of Status parameter?

I added the code from another example that uses WriteComplete as shown in the code.

Sub Process_Globals
    Public manager As BleManager2
    Public currentStateText As String = "UNKNOWN"
    Public currentState As Int
    Public connected As Boolean = False
    Public ConnectedName As String
    Private ConnectedServices As List
    Public rp As RuntimePermissions
    Public DATA_SERVICE As String = "49535343-fe7d-4ae5-8fa9-9fafd205e455" 'data service for RN-BLE RN4871, write to pc
    Public DATA_UART_RX As String = "49535343-8841-43f4-a8d4-ecbe34729bb3" 'write writenoresponse
    Public DATA_UART_TX As String = "49535343-1e4d-4bd9-ba61-23c647249616" 'write writenoresponse Notify Indicate, THIS AS 'SET.NOTIFY'
    Private messagesToSend As List
End Sub

Public Sub SendMessage(msg() As Byte)
    messagesToSend.Add(TrimMessage(msg))
    'messagesToSend.Add(msg)
    If messagesToSend.Size = 1 Then
        Do While messagesToSend.Size > 0
            Try
                manager.WriteData(DATA_SERVICE, DATA_UART_TX, messagesToSend.Get(0))
            Catch
                FailedToSend
                Return
            End Try
            Wait For Manager_WriteComplete (Characteristic As String, Status As Int)
            If Status <> 0 Then
                FailedToSend
            End If
            If connected = False Or messagesToSend.Size = 0 Then Return
            messagesToSend.RemoveAt(0)
        Loop
    End If
End Sub


Sub FailedToSend
    Log("Failed to send message. Disconnecting.")
    manager.Disconnect
End Sub

Sub TrimMessage(msg() As Byte) As Byte()
    If msg.Length > 20 Then
        Dim bc As ByteConverter
        Dim NewMsg(20) As Byte
        bc.ArrayCopy(msg, 0, NewMsg, 0, 20)
        Return NewMsg
    End If
    Return msg
End Sub

I call SendMessage(msg) from Main when the Send Button is clicked.
I place d(0)=0x47, d(1)=0x0d and pass it to Starter with CallSub2(Starter, "SendMessage",d)
Everything looks fine,
The Status is 0.
It seems to be working without Failed to Send being called but, I still don't receive the "G" cr on the RN4871/Micro.
I am using the service UUID for Transparent Uart mode of the RN4871

I'm pretty sure that Ble Ext library calls the same API as BLE2 library. You need to carefully check where are the other differences.
