[android-developers] Bluetooth SPP not working on HTC Desire
Hello,
I have been doing some Bluetooth SPP development with an HTC Legend
which was working just fine.
Today I received my HTC Desire and I cant get an SPP connection to
work.
The first thing I had to do is remove the mAdapter.cancelDiscovery()
call in the connectThread().
It seems there is some sort of timing issue here and with the faster
processor its not working like this.
Below is an extract from the logs when mAdapter.cancelDiscovery() was
being called just prior to mmSocket.connect();

I get a little farther after this change and it almost seems as if the
connection is up because the BT Icon on my laptop changes to green but
then the connection fails anyway.

[android-developers] Bluetooth Bug/Omission
When performing a device discover the remote device name is cached. All subsequent device discoveries returns the same cached name over and over even if the remote device name has changed. Is this a known problem? Does a workaround exist? Some way to clear the cached name or force the phone to try and get the name again? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth RFCOMM connection dying immediately after .connect()
Hi!
I'm trying to connect to Zeemote (http://zeemote.com/) gaming controller
from Moto Droid running 2.0.1 firmware. The test application below does
connect to the device (LED flashes) but connection is dropped immediately. I
can connect to the device perfectly fine using bluez tools (log attached as
well).
I'm quite at a loss here, I work on it for so long that I ran out of ideas
so any help would be very much appreciated.
Btw, looks like this issue is somewhat similar to

[android-developers] Bluetooth data transfer is very slow
Hello, I have application which send files from one devise to another. During testing I've faced two problems: 1)Data transfer is very slow. I compare to standard bluetooth application; 2)From time to time received data is less then sent. Small parts are missed if file(files) is huge. Have anybody else the same problems?

messed up. Nothing works till Bluetooth is turned off and on. Here is
the sample, the problem is blocking read on the thread but
InputStream.available call always returns 0 and cannot be used to
implement some ugly, busy-waiting workaround.

[android-developers] Bluetooth application
Hi All, This is regarding to bluetooth application in Android. When scanning of devices is active, if I invoke Device rename option, then some times the dialog for rename option is not coming. When I see the log, the onClick method of device name change is not invoked!. After scanning completes then that dialog comes or some time it will not display. Why this behavior and what may be the problem for this? Thanks Gururaja B O -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth: programmatically clearing the devices names cache? And unbinding a device? And why does a device become paired after a failed connection attempt?
Hi. Question 1: In any Android version, supporting Bluetooth, after a device dicovery is done, there is no way to *programmatically* clear the devices names that were cached by the system during the discovery. (Unless, an attempt to connect to a device is done, then the name is updated.) Is there a way to *programmatically* update or clear this device names cache? Question 2: In my app i need to bind-to some devices and then forget the device, unbinding. How can this be done *programmatically* ? Question 3: If i attempt a connection using sock = foundDevice.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(someWierdUUID); sock.connect(); even if the connection fails (of course, because of my bogus someWierdUUID), i find that foundDevice is marked bounded. Isn't it a bug? Thanks, Marcus. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth pairing request
Hello there When my Bluetooth application is about to create SPP connection to the unpaired remote device, pairing notification is displayed. From the documentation I can see that pairing request can display a dialog or sent notification. I'd like to know what logic causes my app to sent notification than display a regular pairing dialog. Maybe I'm blind but the problem is I were not aware of that notification and was fighting with pairing problem for few hours :) And I'd really would prefer my app to trigger dialog display.

[android-developers] [bluetooth] Can't connect to SPP device
Hi, I currently run android 1.5 on a HTC magic. I'm trying to
communicate from my phone to a bluetooth device that supports SPP. I
can't seem to be able to connect to the device. I have tryed two ways
to connect:
1- via the official 2.0 API using the backport-android to make it work
on android 1.5
2- via the unofficial bluetooth api 0.3
Both method give me an error around the same connection process.
With API 2.0, I can discover devices and pair with them. Then i create
a socket which seems to work, but when I use the .connect() method, I
get this error in CatLog:IOException Unable to start Service
Discovery. This is related to doSdp() in public class
BluetoothSocket.
Searching the web, it seems this error is related to a wrong UUID ...
but I am using the SPP UUID properly.
So, I thought the problem could be backport android, so I tried with
the unofficial API from Gerdavax ( http://code.google.com/p/android-bluetooth/
)
To connect to a device with this API you first create a socket, then
you connect using the .openSocket( port number) method. The weird
thing is, if I try with a new port, it connects, if I try a second
time, it wont work, unless I change the port. I get a similar related
error of SDP.
Here is my code for API 2.0, but im pretty sure its ok.

[android-developers] Bluetooth API in 2.x problem.
I have written a small app that puts my bluetooth in discoverable mode for a long time (G1 - API 1.6). I use that along with small program on windows to lock/unlock the computer if the phone is close by. Recently i try to port this app to my nexus one but it seems like i have to pop up the message every 300s to enable device to go to discoverable mode. does anyone know how i can suppress that? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth Server in C/C++
Hi, Has anyone tried using Bluetooth sockets where the server machine is running C/C++? Android Bluetooth Devices returns a socket from BluetoothDevice.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(UUID) and says in the reference designed to be used with listenUsingRfcommWithServiceRecord(String, UUID) for peer-peer Bluetooth applications. I can't use Bluetooth.Socket.connect() because it does not take any parameters for the remote Bluetooth Device nor does the Bluetooth Device class have any other methods that return a socket. Does anyone know a way around this? Chirs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth chat example from sdk resources works ok?
Hello fellow android developers. I assume the bluetooth chat example on the developer resources page runs on something I have a dev phone 2, which I think is an HTC Ion, with os ver 1.6. Will the btchat example dl and run on 1.6? (right now its saying it stopped unexpectedly...). So is it possible to upgrade the dev phone 2 to the newer os? My goal is to cvt the chat prog into a receive only prog... I have a bluetooth dongle on my pc running ITV bluesoliel and I want to send data out the virtual serial port on the pc and receive it on the phone. Step one is get something running on the phone. Step two is opening com15 or com16 on the pc so I can send data out the com port com1 works fine thanks for any ideas. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth connection : pairing before connecting ?
I'm having an issue here while trying to connect to an RS232 device with the BluetoothChat sample program. 1- If I first pair my phone with the device through Bluetooth Settings, no problem.

[android-developers] Bluetooth connect not working
I am trying to establish a connection to another Bluetooth device on
my Nexus One (2.1) with the following code, which occurs when on the

intent.getParcelableExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE);

btSocket.connect();
Log.e(BLUETOOTH, ON RESUME: BT connection established, data
transfer link);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
Log.e(BLUETOOTH, IOException: + e);
}
I have tried both the following UUIDs for both the SPP and OOP
profiles:
private static final UUID MY_UUID =
UUID.fromString(1101--1000-8000-00805F9B34FB);
private static final UUID MY_UUID =
UUID.fromString(1105--1000-8000-00805F9B34FB);
Every time I call the connect command I get an IOException with
Service discovery failed. I have tried connecting to a G1, iPhone
and a Nokia phone all with the same results.
What am I doing wrong?

[android-developers] Bluetooth UUID
Hi everyone :) I've got a doubt with the uuid. The question is I've the uuid from a J2ME app with javax.bluetooth.uuid new UUID(19088743L); and I'd like to convert it to java.util to port to Android using fromString(String uuid) or something similar that let me make the same UUID on Android.

[android-developers] Bluetooth barcode scanner application
Hi experts, I am planning to develop an android application for scanning barcodes. The barcode scanner used would be a bluetooth device. When I scan a barcode using the bluetooth barcode scanner, the corresponding number of the barcode should be obtained in Android phone. Can this bluetooth barcode scanner application be perfectly implemented using Android 2.0 SDK? Are there any technical constraints currently with Android 2.0 SDK for implementing this? Please reply. I would be proceeding with this based on the feedbacks I get from here. Any help in this regard is well appreciated.

[android-developers] Bluetooth SPP question
Hello All, I have a simple device, not developed by me, that uses SPP to send out a simple 55 byte data packet once every second. The device accepts no communication other than any needed for pairing/connection. Once it has been connected it is supposed to start sending the 1Hz packets out. I can pair the device just fine, but have yet to be able to establish a connection. If I try setting up a BluetoothSocket using the connect () method, it fails with an error related to services, i.e. no known services are on the device. I figure this isn't a big deal, as connect () appears to be only for the outgoing data, but then I try to listen using BluetoothServerSocket::listenUsingRfcommWithServiceRecord() but get nothing. It seems that I should need to actively do something to establish the connection, but don't see anything in the javadocs that look liek what I think I need. I just want to connect the device and start catching the packets so I can move on to coding the real application.

Re: [android-developers] bluetooth uuid
No no no no :) Go to a uuid generator, and generate your own unique UUID for your application. For example: http://www.uuidgenerator.com It can be any valid UUID, so long as you use the same UUID on both the server and the client of your application. Instead of allowing applications to choose there own RFCOMM channel, we allow apps to pick a UUID instead, which has a much lower chance of namespace collisions (there are only 30 RFCOMM channels). Android will automatically connect to the correct RFCOMM channel by looking up the UUID in the service discovery database on the remote device.

Re: [android-developers] bluetooth service discovery
Although I personal feel service discovery is quiet fundamental in generic bluetooth solution, it is actually not very high priority for my current products. Since we custom make the remote devices and home grown mobile applications, we feel getting data from connection is faster than going thru SDP and get data from service records. Our application runs continuously and we are trying to shorten each cycle as short as possible. The down side is that it requires the mobile appl understand proprietary data format/interface.

Re: [android-developers] bluetooth service discovery
Can you be more specific about how you get better performance through SDP? What size data are you sending? Do you mean higher throughput or higher latency? The dominant factor in short transfers over both SDP and RFCOMM is the page scan, which would be 1-2 seconds no matter which protocol you use.

Re: [android-developers] bluetooth service discovery
I think you are right. I meant to say that if client initiates Service Discovery, this process takes time to complete. So, if my mobile application already know what data already available,and know how to get it, our current mobile appl just simple go and get it by establish an connection and perform read and write to the connection. The other choice would be advertise the data via service records, and let mobile application perform Service Discovery first, then get connection out of the SR, and perform read and write, etc. On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 9:48 AM, Nick Pelly npe...@google.com wrote: Can you be more specific about how you get better performance through SDP?

Re: [android-developers] bluetooth connection - paring required?
ok for starters im pretty sure im not doin this right but i wanted to throw an idea at anyone who would take the time to read/listen for upgrades to come if it cant make the cut for the next one. I would like to see this done in an upgrade instead of an app only because i feel that this is somthin everyone would enjoy. BIG PICTURES i feel that When ur favorite contacts/friends call and u have a customized ring tone and possibly an assigned contact photo would it be askin to much to utilize the 3.2-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen with 320 x 480 (HVGA) resolution for that photo. Very simple yes i know however we are limited to that small picture with out even being givin the option as to weather you' like it that small or not. just a thought i've had for some time now that i wanted to share thanks for listening follow android but more specificly G1 users On Thu, Nov 12, 2009 at 11:51 AM, Sean Liao wirelessw...@gmail.com wrote: === copy and pasted === We only auto-pair using when: 1.) the remote device looks like a headset 2.) the user initiated the connection request through Bluetooth Settings 2 questions to the above: 1.) Do both conditions have to meet or either one? 2.) how to make the remote device looks like a headset? set the right COD or implement headset profile on the remote device? BTW, we use remote devices as some custom sensors. In deployment environment, there could be a lot sensors, and they could get swap in and out as well. And our mobile application has to run continuously in the background without stopping. Our patented application has ported to j2me, .netcf, native C++ mobile applications and jailbroken iPhone. We are hoping to deploy it to Android phones. We are facing the same issue as Blackberry, and in the process of working with RIM to remove this Blackberry paring requirement.

[android-developers] Bluetooth Support (lack of it)
Andriod doesn't support many profiles. (ummm 1, the headset profile) I just bought a MyTouch 3G as my first Android phone and to say the least, disappointed. I like the open aspect of the phone, but I've bought phones 5+ years ago that supported more BT profiles than this. I came from a Blackjack (windows mobile 6.1) phone which had multimedia connections, DUN, OBEX, keyboard, and the list goes on. The new version of windows mobile has PAN and supports tethering out of the box. For GOD sakes, I can't even get a directory listing via USB connection. How does anyone load their own videos and music on this device? I can't listen to music via bluetooth in my car anymore. Someone please tell me that there is a issue with my New MyTouch Andriod device and that I that I just didn't take a 10 year jump in BT functionality my making the jump to an open platform.

[android-developers] Bluetooth sound output
Hello, I just noticed, using the HTC Dream that using a bluetooth headset was really easy for phone calls, but nothing seemed to be available for videos / music sound output. V1.0 limitations are not at fault since when you play a music and start a call, you can hear the music in the headset for a second. So it's technically possible, just not available in the settings. Does anybody knows how to redirect programatically the sound output to the blutooth headset ? I'd like to code a little app that let you listen to your music while looking like a total idiot with a big device hanging to your hear :-) Cheers ! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth file transfer
Is there some bluetooth API for android that enables developers to create a way to transfer files from one g1 to another via bluetooth? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth
Can someone explain the current situation with bluetooth from a developer point? I take it the latest 1.5 version still does not have development of bluetooth apps? If not, when is this going to happen? It's been in J2ME for years! I saw some post about it being available via compiling the framework, what does this mean? Does this mean an app can be done that uses bluetooth or is this just for developemt only? I am only just starting to look at Android, so totally new to this. However, if I can't do bluetooth SPP connections then it's no use to me for what I want, so I'll not bother for now. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth and Serial Port Profile
Hello I realize that the Bluetooth API is subject to change over time and that the only available profiles are A2DP and AVCRP, but I am really interested about the options I have to develop an application using the Serial Port Profile. I don't really care if the API will later change, this application is meant to be used only by me (I am trying to communicate to a mirocontroller using Bluetooth and the only supported profiles are SPP and GAP). I am going through the /core/java/android/bluetooth/ classes at the moment but I don't see anything that refers to the SPP or otherwise. I am willing to invest time to learn and write a SPP implementation, provided I have someone to guide me. This is valuable to me because I am doing this project as a final year project so I'm not exactly waiting for someone else to do my work. In conclusion, does anyone have any suggestions on where I could start looking and studying to be able to use the SPP in an application? Any piece of advice is greatly appreciated, Alin --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth headset service is always running - Is it normal?
On my phone, a dev phone, the bluetooth headset service is always running even though bluetooth connectivity is disable in the Settings app. Is this normal? The ear speaker is not emitting any sound for maybe two weeks now, even if the on-call sound level is at max (5), so I'm checking a few things before I try to send back the phone for repair or exchange. thanks serge --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth : RFCOMM connection fails while connecting to a headset which is in discoverable mode.
Hi, Iam novice to android and i have seen a issue in G1. can some one help me to proceed further ? Steps to reproduce: 1.Pair and connect to a BT mono / Stereo headset. 2. Disconnect the headset from the G1 phone. 3. Switch off the headset.(Plantronics 320 / Motorola HT820) 4. Put the headset back in discoverable mode. 5. Now initiate a connection from G1. 6. Problem in connecting to Headset message pops up. Note: when a stereo headset is connected in the same way (step 5) , only a2dp connection succeeds and HFP connection always fails. when a mono headset is connected (step 5) , failure happens as it supports only hfp. From my initial analysis , i found that HFP conenction failed because of the RFCOMM connection failure. I see the below message in the log: rfcomm async connect() error: CONNECTION REFUSED (111).40 attempts of calls to waitForAsyncConnectNative has failed and the result was returned as 0.. Reference: waitForAsyncConnectNative() function in android_server_headsetbase.cpp. Any help would be really useful.

[android-developers] Bluetooth modem
Hi all, I'm thinking of getting a T-Mobile G1 as a replacement for my existing Windows Mobile PDA. So far as I can tell it will have everything I want bar one, namely TomTom. I have bought TomTom Navigator for the PDA and also pay for a Traffic subscription. Since I'll only have one tariff with unlimited data (on the G1), what I'd like to be able to do is use the G1 as a bluetooth modem that the PDA can use to download the live traffic data. Is there support in Android for networking over Bluetooth? Alternatively, is there and application I can get that will do this? Lastly if the answer to both is no (and given that I am a software developer by trade), would this be possible using the appropriate APIs?

[android-developers] Bluetooth in Android How to enable bccmd
Hi, I wanna enable the bluetooth in Android. On my board, I need to use the command bccmd to configure my bluetooth chip firstly. However I can not find it in the Android file system. Maybe I have to recompile the android sdk to enable it. I know that the bluez-libs is located in externel/bluez. How can I reconfigure it and add enable-bccmd options. Sorry for my pool english.

[android-developers] Bluetooth PAN tethering
It requires root (just like all the good bits :) ..) but I have worked up a first pass of PAN bluetooth tethering for the G1. All the details are on my site at http://www.gotontheinter.net/node/515 The summary: With root, and a little command-line work, it allows you to do standard bluetooth tethering, just like you could if you had a real smartphone. :P OSX will show Bluetooth network device (not sure what Windows or Linux will call it.) This is not the old-style DUN (ppp) but the newer, lighter-weight PAN protocol. Suggestions welcome, just post any comments to the article. If the site collapses under load (I hope not..) I've got a mirror available. If you don't have root, don't complain to me.. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Bluetooth Availability? Timeframe?
I am sure this issue has probably been talked about before but I could not find a lot of information by searching this group as to when the SDK will support Bluetooth for applications. I have read that the bluetooth was locked down for security but that it may be released in the next SDK release but I can not find a timeframe for that release. A lot of people have complained that Bluetooth is a very important piece to the success of the phone and I can not agree more. For those that argue that iPhone has the same thing have to realize that comparing the market value of the iPhone to a phone like the G1 is absurd. If anything the G1 NEEDS to have Bluetooth available just so it CAN compete against the iPhone. I hope to hear some good news about the Bluetooth, it will be a shame if bluetooth will continue to go unsupported in the SDK.

[android-developers] Bluetooth Emulation
Hi everybody, I have been looking for information about Android's bluetooth support, but unfortunately it is not implemented yet at the Android's emulator. (see [ 1 ] ) I have found some sensor emulators, such as cameras or acelerometers, which let us use the sensors through a socket connection, using an external server which provides access to the real sensors. (see [ 2 ] and [ 3 ]) Can somebody tell me if there is something similar for bluetooth?
