I was playing with all my HC-05 modules today and found some have the firmware version" hc05V2.3_le". Maybe this is an issue with yours? It's causing me a lot of trouble.
Something is up with these using this firmware. I can't access and change many parameters like I can on my newer HC-05's I bought from Micro Center. It even enters the AT mode in both ways described for the HC-05 and the HC-06.
For example, I can check the baud rate using the HC-05 method (EN pin to Vcc) and it always comes back as 38400,0,0. I can set it as 115200,0,0 and it says "OK", but when checked, it's still at 38400,0,0. So I assumed it was not changing.
But then, I found that the HC-06 method of entering the AT mode (simply power on, but don't connect) works (see (https://forum.arduino.cc/t/hc05-version … /1365846/8), BUT the AT communications with my terminal is now 115200 and I must use NL and CR on my terminal. It's all so confusing.
EDIT: I found where I bought these a few months ago on Ebay - seems they are ALL fake now, being HC-05 "compatible" running on BLE. RemoteXY will connect to these under BLE, but I can't get any data to flow using all the possible configurations and speeds I can think of.
Anyway, I'm going to continue playing with these (latter, but soon) to see if I can get them to work with RemoteXY. I'll update here what I find out.
