Android 11 Bluetooth extended beacon

zb2020 · ‎03-16-2026

I am using the LBEE5ZZ2XS Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module (based on the NXP 88W9098 chipset, Bluetooth 5.3) with an i.MX8M Plus processor running Android 11.

Although the 88W9098 chipset supports Extended Advertising (Extended Beacon), these features do not appear to be enabled in NXP Android 11 build. Is LE Extended Advertising supported in the NXP 88W9098 firmware? I am currently using the pcieuart9098_combo_v1.bin firmware.
How to enable Extended Advertising in NXP Android (android-11.0.0_2.6.0)?

Hi, @zb2020

Can you please let me know your kernel version and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Driver and FW version?

I checked our RN, currently in the latest release FW, it already supported Bluetooth LE Extended Advertisement.

Below is the latest FW download link in case you need, I paste it as below:

https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-firmware/tree/lf-6.18.2_1.0.0/FwImage_9098_PCIE

And here is the latest release's Release Note link for your reference:

https://github.com/nxp-imx/mwifiex/blob/doc_WCT_release/doc/Release_Notes/Linux_RN/topics/bluetooth....

Usually, the FW is located in: /vendor/firmware/pcieuart9098_combo_v1.bin

If you want to update FW, please firstly remember to back up your original one.

Then copy from above link to FW directory to replace it.

I also tested it on our another chipset with latest FW release on Linux kernel L6.12.49 OS.

It can work as expected.

I share my script and also the btmon logs for your reference.

If still have any problem, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Hi， @zb2020

Anything else I can do for you on this case?

If my reply works for you, please do not hesitate to mark my reply as a solution so that we can close this case.

Thanks.

Hello,

I'm using Android 11 with kernel 5.10.72.
The HCI commands work fine in Linux, but they don't solve the issue in Android. The Android 11 Bluetooth stack checks for extended advertising support, but the chip reports that it isn't supported.
I got extended advertising to work, but I had to fake the chip's response to report that it is supported.

I confirmed this issue in Linux as well:

hcitool -i hci0 cmd 0x08 0x0003

< HCI Command: ogf 0x08, ocf 0x0003, plen 0

> HCI Event: 0x0e plen 12

01 03 20 00 7F 8B 46 08 00 00 00 00

Bit 12 is 0, indicating that LE Extended Advertising is not enabled in the controller.

Best regards

Hi， @zb2020

For Linux OS:

If in default, it is disabled, you can enable it with the commands I provided to you.

And also, if we can enabled it successfully, it means, in controller side, it supports BLE extended adv.

For Android OS:

Let me check on my side then updates to you.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hi, @zb2020

Did you get any chance to have a try with our latest FW?

I already provided the FW download link to you in my first comment.

Can you please provide me hci logs on latest FW?

Or you can provide me the btmon outputs after this command: hcitool -i hci0 cmd 0x08 0x0003

For example:

btmon &

hcitool -i hci0 cmd 0x08 0x0003

Best regards,

Christine.

Hi, @zb2020

I checked on L6.12.49's default release driver and FW, in default 88W9098 enabled BLE extended advertising.

As you can see the btmon logs:

It already shows:

LE Extended Advertising

The driver and FW I am using is below:

wlan: version = PCIE9098--17.92.1.p149.81-MM6X17540.p33-GPL-(FP92)

So, please update your FW, then check again.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hi, @zb2020

Did you get any chance to verify with the FW version I shared to you?

As my verified results, in default, we already enabled BLE extended advertising feature in the latest FW.

Please let me know if still doesn't work on your side.

Otherwise, please do not hesitate to mark my answer as a solution for this thread, so that we can close this ticket, Thanks!

Best regards,
