Nano 33 BLE Bluetooth crash

I use the Nano 33 BLE to forward the data from Uart interface. The problem is the write byte array to BLE, the writeValue only work with some data, another will crash the BLE, and the length of both is same.

So, I can't figure out how to fix the problem , is there anyone meet similar problem?

Here is the code

Hello,

You forgot to give a size to this array : byte from_BLE[] = {};

Thank You!!!!!, it works. I don't know it have a impact
