Why does the Bluetooth testing result of PCB show good in supplier lab, but fail in our side?

Receive Bluetooth PCB from supplier after they send a good testing video to me. However, when we test it by ourselves, it can not connect the phone. Why?

Different phones can have different speeds at receiving the scanning results. It seems that you are using a phone with a different scanning speed.
You are using different connecting cables to the input or output of the PCB.
There is something wrong with the input or output of the PCB.

A new project is always a long-run process, especially a Bluetooth device, since the connection not only involves in PCB party but also the phone user. Try to talk to your supplier based on the above points. There will be surprising progress in the project. Good luck to you.

What Others Are Asking

Who controls the process control block(PCB)?

Recently, I have learnt about kernel and find a question that who controls the process control block(PCB)?The kernel or the process itself? Does it differ in different platform (windows/Linux)? So far, I know PCB is controlled in hardware, but I can’t get to the right answer.

What is this button-like clickable metal, on a PCB, called?

When I receive prototype from supplier, I see a button-like clickable metal on it. Very interesting. What’s that?

How can I handle missing solder mask opening on PCB footprint?

I have three through-hole PCBs that are missing front and back solder mask openings for two of the components. The solder mask (usually green) is covering the front and back solder pads. All other pads for all other parts are exposed. Is there a good way to remove the solder mask so that I can solder the components to the board?
