I am trying to develop an Android app capable to connect to a BLE device. But i have a problem to find ble devices. The scanLeDevice methods run but I have no callback. You can find my code below: I use Log.i() to display ble devices.
With another app (downloaded from the store) I can find my ble device and others bluetooth around. So It's not my phone's problem.
Thanks for help!

Thanks for your help``
I found what was the problem about the location.
In fact, if you work with a API >= 23, you have to authorize you app to access to the location (not only in the Manifest file, but in you code it self).
So if you have the same problem:
First, manualy, go to your phon's setting and autorize your app to access to location: to be sure that was the problem.
Then add the code below so that, The application ask the user to authorize the application to access the location
/////////////////////////Location/////
#TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
private void loadPermissions(String perm,int requestCode) {
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, perm) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, perm)) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{perm},requestCode);
}
} else if (checkLocationEnabled())
initScanner();
}
private boolean checkLocationEnabled(){
LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
boolean gps_enabled = false;
boolean network_enabled = false;
try {
gps_enabled = lm.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
} catch(Exception ex) {}
try {
network_enabled = lm.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
} catch(Exception ex) {}
if(!gps_enabled && !network_enabled) {
// notify user
AlertDialog.Builder dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
dialog.setMessage("GPS desabled");
dialog.setPositiveButton("Open GPS settings", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface paramDialogInterface, int paramInt) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent myIntent = new Intent( Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
startActivity(myIntent);
//get gps
}
});
dialog.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface paramDialogInterface, int paramInt) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
dialog.show();
return false;
} else return true;
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults) {
switch (requestCode) {
case REQUEST_FINE_LOCATION: {
// If request is cancelled, the result arrays are empty.
if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// granted
if (checkLocationEnabled())
initScanner();
}
else{
// no granted
}
return;
}
}
}
I had this problem too because I was using ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION on the permission.
When I changed to ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, it finally works for me!

I'me trying to create a simple BLE application on my Android phone.
I've tried a lot of example without success, i must forget something.
Hope you could help me.
First you'll find the permissions added and then my simple activy
Permissions:

Totaly newby, thanks a lot for your help.

You also need to have ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION declared in order to find other Bluetooth devices. You can find more information here:-
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/bluetooth#Permissions
Bluetooth LE Scan fails in the background - permissions
Turn on Android LE scanning without asking user for permission
And the links below are useful for getting started with Android LE Development:-
The Ultimate Guide to Android BLE Development
Android Lollipop: Bluetooth LE Matures
Bluetooth LE Send String Data between Devices
Basically, I am an iOS developer. I have a requirement to scan, connect & disconnect BLE devices. Everything works fine in iOS. Then I tried the following code to scan in Android. None of the devices re scanned at anytime. Could anyone help me, if I am doing something wrong.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
BluetoothAdapter bluetoothAdapter;
TextView statusTextView;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
statusTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.statusTxtView);
}
#Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
enableBluetooth();
}
private void enableBluetooth() {
final BluetoothManager bluetoothManager =
(BluetoothManager) getSystemService(Context.BLUETOOTH_SERVICE);
bluetoothAdapter = bluetoothManager.getAdapter();
if (bluetoothAdapter == null || !bluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) {
statusTextView.setText("BT disabled");
Intent enableBtIntent =
new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, 1);
} else {
statusTextView.setText("BT enabled");
}
boolean status = bluetoothAdapter.startDiscovery();
if (status == true) {
statusTextView.setText("Start scanning");
} else {
statusTextView.setText("Failed scanning");
}
}
BluetoothAdapter.LeScanCallback scanCallback = new BluetoothAdapter.LeScanCallback() {
#Override
public void onLeScan(BluetoothDevice device, int rssi, byte[] scanRecord) {
statusTextView.setText(device.getName());
}
};
}
You've not started scanning. After starting bluetooth discovery using bluetoothAdapter.startDiscovery(), you have to start scanning in order to get scan results. Use the following code to start scan.
I've not tested it but it should work as follows:
BluetoothLeScanner scanner = bluetoothAdapter.getBluetoothLeScanner();
scanner.startScan(scanCallback);
where scanCallback is the above callback you have created but unused.
Make sure that you have BLUETOOTH_ADMIN permission.
First you have to scan device
#SuppressLint("NewApi")
private void turnonBLE() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
manager = (BluetoothManager) getSystemService(BLUETOOTH_SERVICE);
mBLEAdapter = manager.getAdapter();
mLeScanner = mBLEAdapter.getBluetoothLeScanner();
mBLEAdapter.enable();
scanLeDevice(true);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "BTLE ON Service",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.e("BLE_Scanner", "TurnOnBLE");
}
If you are not using any uuid then scan without uuid
public void scanLeDevice(final boolean enable) {
if (enable) {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 21) {
mBLEAdapter.startLeScan(mLeScanCallback);
} else {
ParcelUuid uuid = ParcelUuid.fromString(UUIDList.SENSOR_MAIN_SERVICE_UUID_STRING.toString());
ScanFilter scanFilter = new ScanFilter.Builder().setServiceUuid(uuid).build();
ScanSettings settings = new ScanSettings.Builder()
.setScanMode(ScanSettings.SCAN_MODE_LOW_LATENCY)
.setReportDelay(0)
.build();
if (mLeScanner != null)
mLeScanner.startScan(Collections.singletonList(scanFilter), settings, mScanCallback);
}
} else {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 21) {
mBLEAdapter.stopLeScan(mLeScanCallback);
} else {
mLeScanner.stopScan(mScanCallback);
}
}
}
From that call scanCallback
private ScanCallback mScanCallback = new ScanCallback() {
#Override
public void onScanResult(int callbackType, ScanResult result) {
BluetoothDevice btDevice = result.getDevice();
connectToDevice(btDevice, result.getScanRecord().getBytes());
}
#Override
public void onBatchScanResults(List<ScanResult> results) {
for (ScanResult sr : results) {
Log.e("ScanResult - Results", sr.toString());
}
}
#Override
public void onScanFailed(int errorCode) {
Log.e("Scan Failed", "Error Code: " + errorCode);
}
};
for connect device call gattCallback
private synchronized void connectToDevice(BluetoothDevice device, byte[] scanRecord) {
mGatt = device.connectGatt(getApplicationContext(), false, mBtGattCallback);
}
private BluetoothGattCallback mBtGattCallback = new BluetoothGattCallback() {
// override all methods
}
I have an Arduino code driven ESP32 chip.
For Android code, it setup a callback for connection attempt
mGatt = device.connectGatt(this, false, gattCallback, TRANSPORT_LE );
but
private final BluetoothGattCallback gattCallback = new BluetoothGattCallback()
do not happen.
However, from Arduino side, it does see a connected happen and start to send data out. ESP32 also blink connected LED.
Any idea what was wrong?
SDK version is 26,
minSDK is 23,
targetSDK is 23,
run on Samsung Galaxy S7
thanks a lot!

I have all the permissions granted.
I use the beaconManager. which I create like this:
beaconManager = BeaconManager.getInstanceForApplication(this);
beaconManager.getBeaconParsers().add(new BeaconParser().
setBeaconLayout(BeaconParser.EDDYSTONE_UID_LAYOUT));
beaconManager.getBeaconParsers().add(new BeaconParser().
setBeaconLayout(BeaconParser.EDDYSTONE_TLM_LAYOUT));
beaconManager.getBeaconParsers().add(new BeaconParser().
setBeaconLayout(BeaconParser.EDDYSTONE_URL_LAYOUT));
beaconManager.bind(this);
OnBeaconConnect I do this:
#Override
public void onBeaconServiceConnect() {
ArrayList<Identifier> identifiers = new ArrayList<>();
// Set null to indicate that we want to match beacons with any value
identifiers.add(null);
// Represents a criteria of fields used to match beacon
try {
Region region = new Region("all-beacons-region", null, null, null);
Region region2 = new Region("de3be3ce-4770-477b-8893-0f0e5aeb9b98", null, null, null);
// Tells the BeaconService to start looking for beacons that match the passed Region object
beaconManager.startRangingBeaconsInRegion(region);
beaconManager.startRangingBeaconsInRegion(region2);
beaconManager.startMonitoringBeaconsInRegion(region);
beaconManager.startMonitoringBeaconsInRegion(region2);
} catch (RemoteException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Specifies a class that should be called each time the BeaconService gets ranging data, once per second by default
beaconManager.addRangeNotifier(this);
beaconManager.addMonitorNotifier(new MonitorNotifier() {
#Override
public void didEnterRegion(Region region) {
Log.i(TAG, "I just saw an beacon for the first time!");
}
#Override
public void didExitRegion(Region region) {
Log.i(TAG, "I no longer see an beacon");
}
#Override
public void didDetermineStateForRegion(int state, Region region) {
Log.i(TAG, "I have just switched from seeing/not seeing beacons: " + state);
}
});
}
And didRangeBeaconsInRegion has this:
#Override
public void didRangeBeaconsInRegion(Collection<Beacon> beacons, Region region) {
if (beacons.size() > 0) {
Log.i(TAG, "The first beacon I see is about " + beacons.iterator().next().getDistance() + " meters away.");
}
}
But the monitorNotifier never gets called, and the rangeNotifier gets called, but beacons size is always 0.
Why don't I get the beacons here?
PS: I even tried hardcoding a beacon, using the UUID, but still I get nothing in monitorNotifier, and still size 0 in the range notifier
It looks to me like you set up three beacon parsers for the Eddystone formats, but you are trying to detect a beacon sending out the iBeacon format. (I say this based on the first identifier in the second region definition being a 16 byte UUID.) If this is indeed what you are trying to do, please add a beacon parser for the iBeacon format. You can find that here:
https://beaconlayout.wordpress.com/
Also, if you are trying to detect on Android 6+ make sure you have obtained location permissions otherwise you won't detect anything. See here:
https://altbeacon.github.io/android-beacon-library/requesting_permission.html
you can try this

I'm developed Android app to manipulating with BLE device as shown in this
image.
The app can scan and connect the device, but I can't write correct characteristic to buzzer the tag. I write this code to do that:
private static final int ALERT_HIGH = 2;
private static final UUID IMMEDIATE_ALERT_UUID = UUID.fromString("00001802-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb");
private static final UUID ALERT_LEVEL_UUID = UUID.fromString("00002a06-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb");
public void ClickButton(View view)
{
BluetoothGattService alertService = mGatt.getService(IMMEDIATE_ALERT_UUID);
if (alertService == null)
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Immediate Alert service not found!", 1)
.show();
return;
}
BluetoothGattCharacteristic alertLevel = alertService.getCharacteristic(ALERT_LEVEL_UUID);
if (alertLevel == null)
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Alert Level charateristic not found!", 1)
.show();
return;
}
alertLevel.setValue(ALERT_HIGH, BluetoothGattCharacteristic.FORMAT_UINT8, 0);
mGatt.writeCharacteristic(alertLevel);
}
but no action happened!
I found this app iTracing on play store and it worked fine and it can buzzer the ble device.
I don't know where is the missing in my code; and don't know the problem in a previous function I used or in initialize of connection with this device!
Finally, this is the full code I used

I will be grateful for help.
This is how I have done it in my code.
byte[] valToWrite = parseHexStringToBytes("0x0" + alertLevel);
immediateAlertChar.setValue(valToWrite);
boolean val = gatt.writeCharacteristic(immediateAlertChar);
