There is no way to trigger such a reread at this point in time. It could be 
added for 5.5 but the question really is why this would be necessary. Maybe you 
can provide the use case for it.


In general I would assume that if you have a characteristic with changing value 
(such as a sensor value)

that it would advertise those changes via a change notification. Subsequently 
you would have to ensure that your device attaches the Notify or Indicate 
property to the characteristic in question and provide the

required ClientCharacteristicConfiguration.


After all a select() statement is usually much better than busy polling.

Indeed this won't work at this point in time. 
QLowEnergyService::discoverDetails() has the following code


if (d->state != QLowEnergyService::DiscoveryRequired)
   return;


This means the rediscover doesn't even start.
