Connect-IQ Ble advertising layer parsing bug, prevent many devices to function properly. (paired or not paired) Toybox::BluetoothLowEnergy::ScanResult:getRawData(), getServiceData , getServiceUuids are broken

Connect-IQ Ble advertising layer parsing bug, prevent many devices to function properly.
Reproduced on simulator, fenix 6x (9.0), fenix 6s.

Used bluetooth sniffer to confirm that the advertising bytes were correct, and different than what connect IQ returns.

When not paired :

Toybox::BluetoothLowEnergy::ScanResult:getRawData(), getServiceData , getServiceUuids
 are not receiving the proper data bytes from the network layer when **to be confirmed !!**the last advertising data type are :
 Complete List of 16-bit Service Class UUIDs

which is very common !
if the order is changed, and something else is set at the end, there is no problem at all.

In order to demonstrate this, I'm parsing the content of getRaw, using 2 stryd devices (ble indeed), one hardware v4 (last advertising data, is Shortened local name), which is working perfectly.

The parser, read all data, and decode them, now problem on this trace, it is complete, and perfectly good and valid.

devicename:Stryd kl
raw Adverting Data:[2, 1, 6, 7, 3, 24, 24, 20, 24, 10, 24, 9, 255, 170, 170, 210, 91, 0, 81, 82, 41, 9, 8, 83, 116, 114, 121, 100, 32, 107, 108]

Now, another generation of stryd (v3), where by lack of lack, advertising data last bytes are ...Complete List of 16-bit Service Class UUIDs

In this case, you can see that the raw data, is not correct, and stop before those advertising data.

If it was only the raw data, it won't be a problem, but getServiceUuids looks to use those bytes... so return none of those services.

devicename:Stryd

When paired :

Class: Toybox::BluetoothLowEnergy::Device getService() and getServices()

are also affected !

This was confirmed with :
- nrf connect on android
- nrf connect desktop, with the nrf52 dongle I'm using for the simulator (confirmed into the simulator indeed)

Now, if it was only stryd, it would be okay, but my elliptical bike(FTMS profile), also adverstise services at the end... so they are not visible to the watch.

It is the same for many devices I checked, all that was availlable to me.

Is reporting to this forum enough to get it tracked by garmin ? anything else to do ?

Kind Regards.
