Bluetooth on Clover Mini & Station

Is this limited on these hardware?

I can't seem to get it up and running :/

Yes it's limited. BLE transmit is turned off on Mini and Mobile for security reasons, and Station does not support BLE. There are also some standard profiles that are disabled such as headset and phone, file sharing, and possibly some others.

Here are the bluetooth profiles we support,

<bool name="profile_supported_hid">true</bool>
<bool name="profile_supported_opp">true</bool>
<bool name="profile_supported_pan">true</bool>
<bool name="profile_supported_gatt">true</bool>
<bool name="profile_supported_hidd">true</bool>

Any way I can get plan text data across a device using bluetooth or USB? I've tried OTG but I had no luck hence the app says I haven't been granted permissions even if I click "authorize" on the permission request.

I think you could use the BT OPP profile. You can use USB, but your app needs to be whitelisted to access USB devices (a mapping from your app to the USB VID/PID on the server).

For development does it needs to be while-listed or only for production?
