<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37685759/bluetoothlescan-not-finding-any-devices?noredirect=1#>
I've been having some problems getting Bluetooth to scan for devices with
my Samsung Galaxy s5.
I'm on Android 6.0 and have set up permissions for my app to scan like so:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
// Android M Permission check
if
(this.checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
final AlertDialog.Builder builder = new
AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setTitle("This app needs location access");
builder.setMessage("Please grant location access so this app
can devices.");
builder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.ok, null);
builder.setOnDismissListener(new
DialogInterface.OnDismissListener() {
public void onDismiss(DialogInterface dialog) {
requestPermissions(new
String[]{android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION},
PERMISSION_REQUEST_COARSE_LOCATION);
}
});
builder.show();
}
I assume this is working correctly because I got the pop-up asking for
permissions which I accepted.
My scan function:
private void scanLeDevice(final boolean enable) {
if (enable) {
// Stops scanning after a pre-defined scan period.
mHandler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
mScanning = false;
Log.i("start" , "Stopping scan...");
mBluetoothLeScanner.stopScan(mScanCallback);
}
}, SCAN_PERIOD);
mScanning = true;
Log.i("start" , "Starting scan...");
mBluetoothLeScanner.startScan(mScanCallback);
} else {
mScanning = false;
mBluetoothLeScanner.stopScan(mScanCallback);
}
}
Now it stops and starts scanning correctly since Logcat is giving me logs.
But it's just not finding any devices which is really weird because I'm
sitting next to my laptop and a second phone both with Bluetooth enabled.
Here's my callback by the way, if anyone is interested:
Private ScanCallback mScanCallback = new ScanCallback() {
@Override
public void onScanResult(int callbackType, ScanResult result) {
System.out.println("BLE// onScanResult");
Log.i("callbackType", String.valueOf(callbackType));
Log.i("result", result.toString());
BluetoothDevice btDevice = result.getDevice();
}
@Override
public void onBatchScanResults(List<ScanResult> results) {
System.out.println("BLE// onBatchScanResults");
for (ScanResult sr : results) {
Log.i("ScanResult - Results", sr.toString());
}
}
@Override
public void onScanFailed(int errorCode) {
System.out.println("BLE// onScanFailed");
Log.e("Scan Failed", "Error Code: " + errorCode);
}};
Now as you can see the scan is not failing since Logcat is not giving me a
scan failed log, but apperantly its also not finding any devices...
Logcat:

I've added the correct permissions to my Manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"
/><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"
/><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH"
/><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN"
/><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_PRIVILEGED" />
I've tried almost every possibility and am starting to think the Bluetooth
on my phone might be broken somehow, which is weird because I can manually
detect and connect to devices in the Android settings.
