invalid conversion from 'const byte* {aka const unsigned char*}' to 'const char*

i've been working with en arduino 101 and with the curieBLE on it so... finnally finish my software to upload it to the boar and by the time i verify it apears the exit status in the title, here´s my code (it is not complete because its really long and the exit status i already know that its related to the declaration so it includes the declaration of both variables that produces the error)

}

SO, where im messing it up?, and another thing a little bit out of the topic could someone can tell me how its codified the BLEintCharacteristic? because i dont know how to read it from a phone

and the exit status i already know that its related to the declaration

"One of the declarations" you mean. Which one?

That is NOT the complete error message. If you have posted the COMPLETE error message, you'd have gotten the complete answer in one shot.

Hint: You need to use a cast.
