Hi,

Did anyone look at this yet ?

I seems like a fairly obvious bug since the Android library and Android sample app work.

@Jucy-Dev @blackcodefr Unfortunately we are not able to reproduce this issue at our end. I have tried on ESP-IDF version 5.4. Please let us know your IDF version and any additional example configurations.

HI @patafx We tried to reproduce the issue in the version 4.4.7 but we are still not able to reproduce it. Could you please send us the device logs in debug mode, so we can identify the root cause.
