One first error is that you are trying to write to the characteristic declaration attribute, which is always read-only. To enable notification, you should write to the Client Characteristic Configuration (CCC) descriptor, which for the first characteristic is probably 0x000c (you can confirm by running "char-desc 0x000c 0x000c", if it appears one attribute with UUID 0x2902, it is a CCC). Can you try this instead: char-write-req 0x000c 0100 By the way, I strongly suggest you read a bit more on GATT (there are some good resources on bluetooth.org), so you understand better what are notifications, descriptors, characteristics, services etc. PS: When replying to e-mails on the mailing list, be sure to not top-post (i.e. write your reply before the original message) and remember to trim the original message to only show the relevant part of the original message (like I did above), otherwise it is difficult to follow discussion.
