From the looks of it, it looks like the device name has a special character in it. Can you please help us confirm if you are not seeing the same issue on a different device with a non-special character please.

Thanks.

The error was reported by a customer.
Only happens on this device.
It is a Chinese tablet.

Hey @FrancescLlaoGarcia !

I think that seems like an issue in SDK side. We do accept unicode characters, but for some reason, it may be causing this issue. I will go ahead and try to reproduce and fix this issue soon.
