Android Question problem with BLE, beacons, and reading the advertisement package

[Parzival]

I am trying to connect to an iBeacon via the app and I am using the trial version of b4a.
my problems are as follows:
1. The BeaconParser function is unavailable and the readRemoteRssi function is causing an error message = Cannot assign void value.
2. My BleManager2_object.Scan2(Null,True) is not working as it causes the error

3. Also, I am unable to find a function that reads the UID of the beacon and stores it in a string variable. GetCharacteristicData and ReadData and ReadData2 are not working.

Can anyone please help with these three doubts?

This example shows you everything you need: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...iscover-ibeacons-and-eddystone-beacons.61127/

However it is only available to licensed users.

But erel, BeaconParser isn't available in my library? do i have to buy b4a for that??
