This got me somewhere. That is, Android tried to connect to the
Bluetooth device but was unable to. I know that this is the 16-bit
UUID for the serial port profile (0x1101) promoted to a 128-bit UUID.
This is what I had initially tried but incorrectly converted.

In my case, I am trying to connect to a Bluetooth device which I
cannot assign a UUID to. All I know is that the device has a serial
port service. I also do not know how to find the UUID of the device.

Am I wrong in trying to connect to this device using the existing
Android 2.0 Bluetooth API? It does not require pairing and can only
communicate uses a serial port service (profile).

Thanks,
Paul
