I'd encourage you to use the existing altos library for Android; it
provides an API for talking to the BT device.

TeleBT implements the same 'command line' as the rest of the Altus
Metrum devices, you can connect to them with a serial terminal program
over USB and type '?' to read the on-line help. There's also some
limited documentation about this command protocol in Appendix A of the
Altus Metrum manual.

You can go look at the source code for AltosDroid from our git
repository:

        git://git.gag.com/fw/altos

altoslib knows how to set the frequency, it also knows how to parse all
of the telemetry formats and compute the current flight state from the
raw sensor values.
