Lightblue Bean not Discovered

[TanWeiLiang]

I am new to using the Lightblue Bean and struggling to make an Android application that involves Bean communication. I have made reference to the Android SDK from Github, but the application is unable to discover the Lightblue Bean. Wheras the Lightblue Bean can be seen by the Bean Loader app from Android. I need help as in what am I missing in order to make the Lightblue Bean discoverable.
The Android SDK which I have referred to is from the link: https://github.com/PunchThrough/bean-sdk-android

I just struggled for a few hours with a similar-sounding problem. In my case, I'm running on Marshmallow and I wasn't explicitly requesting the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission. (https://developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting.html) I had the permissions in my manifest, but on 6.0+ that's not enough, and the startDiscovery() call fails silently (or works, but with a guarantee there won't be any results).

If adding the permissions doesn't help your app, including some output from adb log here might help others help you more.
