"too big" upload problem

[ejd]

When I try to upload your example bluetooth sketch to my arduino with your board on the top I get
Not enough memory; see http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#size for tips on reducing your footprint.
Maybe some smaller size example for this bluetooth board exists?

Please give me a link about the product, we are not sure which kind of bluetooth you are using. Which type of Arduino board do you use?

I tried to use your : Geeetech Iduino Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)Shield nRF8001 for Arduino Uno iOS (ebay 331413507415 ) on

Arduino UNO and DCcduino UNO boards - they both gives the same error.

You can try the example in this wiki page:

Better explained error but still to "big"...

Downloaded from your link and tried to upload to my arduino. Got a better explained error but still "too big"

Please try Arduino 1.0.1

Geeetech should upgrade examples to compile on Arduino1.6.5 or later revisions. Otherwise we can't integrate our applications to work with Geeetech products and these need to be returned.

Redbearlab seems to be doing so much better job in keeping source code up to date.

Kindly fix your examples to work with latest Arduino software or withdraw your products from market or sell them under $1 each....pun intended
