 P-3113. This dialog box asks for the user to input a pin code for
 pairing, BUT THE DEVICE IS ALREADY PAIRED. I type in the correct code

It might be useful if you could find, by experiment or by web
searching, if there are:

1) bluetooth devices (non-earpiece) usable by applications with your
4.0.3 phone (or any 4.x phone)

2) other bluetooth devices which experience the same error

Also, if you end up posting a bug report, doing a dump of all the
interface characteristics of the bluetooth printer (perhaps by
connecting it from a desktop/laptop linux and using some of the
bluetooth tools) would be helpful.  You might also want to contact the
printer manufacturer.

Okay, I will do that. I put this posting on this forum and the Samsung
forum several weeks ago, and nobody (except the one guy on the Samsung
forum, but he was no help at all) answered, so I decided to try to get
somebody's attention by screaming.

I am usually calm, but this has got me super frustrated.

Thanks for your help. I will be calm now.

 Coming back to your problem, if you think it's a bug, then file a bug for
 it. There are greater chances that your bug would be noticed by people from
 google on their bug tracker.

 Your question screams. And for a forum, I don't think that's good. At
 times, it really might frustrate you, but, screaming is not a solution I
 guess.

 Anyway, I have no idea about your problem.

 2 steps:
 1. Try to search in the bug tracker if this bug is already logged.
 2. If not, then please log a bug and wait for someone's response patiently

  I have developed an Android app that communicates with a Blue Bamboo
  Bluetooth printer. I have no trouble communicating with the printer
  on
  a galaxy P-6210 (Android 3.2). I purchased a P-3113 (Android 4.0.3).
  When my app runs on the P-3113, I get the following problem.
  When the P-3113 is trying to pair with the Blue Bamboo printers, it
  asks me to type in the pin number for pairing, but the device was
  already paired before the app started up!!! Why does it ask me
  for
  a pin number again, when the devices are already paired?
  When I enter the pin number again, the device will still not connect.
  The problem occurs on the device running version 4.0.3 regardless of
  whether my software is targeted for version 4.0.3 or version 3.2.
  I can supply the manufacturer's demo software source code, which also
  exhibits the same problem.

I would generally say that while google employees occasionally follow
this forum, their input is strictly limited to advice on things that
are considered fairly sticky (advanced uses of the api that aren't
made clear in the documentation), clarifying the correct specification
of what pieces of the system are, or clarifying what is and is not
okay to do, and not spending time looking into specific problems
people have.  However, I would suspect that you could produce a much
stronger argument by putting a lot of thought (in the form of a patch)
into your argument, at the system level..
