Urgent: LEDs blinks but no bluetooth device discovered by my iphone 5

Hi everyone,

I have the nRF51822-mkit board, but I have a problem and I hope to get a response ASAP. When I compile the example projects provided here such as BLE_Beacon and load them into the mbed board, LED1 and LED2 blink as they are suppose to be, but when I search in my phone (iphone 5, ios 7) for the bluetooth signal I cannot see anything!!

Can someone advice what could be causing this?

Your help is highly appreciated.

Akrm, Try downloading either LightBlue app from punchthrough.com or Bluetooth low energy SensorTag app from TI on your iPhone. Both work for me.
