It may take some time to resolve the name, specially if there are many devices to resolve their names. > Can anybody suggest me what should i do to get device name while > searching for the new devices. If you want to display the name you should probably wait until it is resolved, a new DeviceFound will be emitted with the resolved name. > ( If the file names available at /var/lib/run/bluetooth/... then it's > shows device name , as per my understanding while searching its trying > to get device name from this "names " file , but if the file is not > available it won't show the device name.
