[Feature Request] Intigrate haystacks as a background process

This project emulates air tags it woud be awesome if the flipper could act as an air tag when bluetooth is on there are so many ways this couold be useful

This was already done in december in https://github.com/AlexStrNik/flipperzero-firmware, but as far as I remember, using OHS blocked any other bluetooth features, and the whole project became really hard to maintain after some low-level changes to the upstream bluetooth code

[fennectech]

I would be fine with it being something you could turn on and off. Would you guys please be wiling to bring this back?
I imagined something like this

Bluetooth Mode

• Flipper Companion app
• Open Haystack
• OFF

It would eliminate the problem of OHS blocking other features as its an option the user can select and change at will. This is the type of feature that I would find myself using on a daily basis
I mean. I already looked at cramming an AirTag into the flipper and came to the conclusion that it would be untenable

[Astrrra]

That's exactly how it works in the fork, but then again, it's quite hard to maintain

[fennectech]

is there any chance it will be brought forward into the current firmware

[Astrrra]

Probably not, switching between those two modes will be a major inconvenience when the companion apps are finished

You're free to implement this in your own fork though! I think looking at the old code (link above) might help a lot with that

Hi.

As it was already mentioned it requires different radio firmware which at this point is impossible(not enough free space to use full radio stack).

We will come back to this idea after we add loading apps from SD.
