    Description

      The XML output writes signed ints in hex format but w/out the "0x" prefix. So (as I understand it) SDP tries to parse them as base-10 values. E.g. using sdptool to view the resulting service record will show the attribute is ignored entirely when a hex letter (a-f) is present, or wrong when the base 10 value doesn't correspond to the base 16 value. See the code here (qbluetoothserviceinfo_bluez.cpp::writeAttribute where it handles Char/Short/Int types).

      Unsigned ints are written properly.

      I'm not sure how many attributes actually use signed values... so that's probably why this was never noticed. I only noticed by accident when I didn't properly QVariant::fromValue() my signed ints.

      Thanks,
