Rxandroid ble Guidelines for handling re-connection - android

[Update]
I am able to reconnect to the ble device after disconnect but can't seem to read or write any characteristics. Logcat spews this out after reconnect, is this my app doing something wrong or is it because of the ble device?

Using rxandroidble1 and rxjava1
Hi I am new to the concept of rxjava and ble connections but I've been put on a existing project with very little documentation and I'm having problems handling the re-connection after a connection is lost.
I've checked out the sample app of rxandroidble but it only handles connection and no the re-connection if it looses it. Or is the library supposed to handle it by it's own or am I missing something.
The general problem can be described as such :
I connect the phone-app to my ble device. Everything works as expected i get notifications from my subsriptions when temperature is changing on my ble device.
I loose connection either by turning of the ble chip on the device or turning off Bluetooth on my phone or walking out of range.
I turn on Bluetooth again either on my phone or the ble device.
I manage to reconnect but my subscriptions aren't re subscribed so i don't get any notifications back to my phone when temperature or other values are changing.
According to my employer this code should have worked fine in the past but I can't seem to get it to work after it looses the connection. So can any of you guys see any errors in the logic of the code. Or might there be a problem with the ble device? Or is this a common bug or problem with the RxBleConnectionSharingAdapter or what? I've tried everything but nothing seems to work.
Or am I missing something in like the onUnsibcribeMethod or something?
I guess the establish connection method is the most relevant part of the code. Iv'e tried re-subscribing via to a characteristic after reconnect via the test method but the app just crashes then.
This is my connection manager class :

In establishConnection you set the autoConnect parameter to false, which will prevent automatic reconnection. If you set it to true instead, it should automatically reconnect. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/40187086/556495 and http://polidea.github.io/RxAndroidBle/ under Auto connect.
Note that this will not work if Bluetooth is turned off/restarted on the phone/tablet. So you'll probably also need a Bluetooth state change broadcast listener to restart everything when that happens.

Ble with MVVM and Architecture Components, proper way?

I'm working with Bluetooth LE devices and I was thinking about my current approach and best practices. Currently I have an activity which handles the connection and the GattCallbacks and I decided to restructure the code to get an better overview and maintainability cause its quite messy actually.
I found the BleManager from NordicSemiconductor https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-BLE-Library/
It's an abstraction of the basic steps for connecting with a BLE device and it handles the GattCallbacks + providing an appropriate interface to use it from a service or a ViewModel.
I'd like to use the ViewModel approach but I'm not so familiar with MVC, MVP, MVVM patterns and there are some questions that I still can't reply
This class is extending the BleManager (BlinkyManager.java)
It shows how to make use of the BleManager so I adopted the class and called it ECountBleManager.
EDIT:
The last 6 days I did reaearches especially facing the MVVM pattern and the Architecture Components. Unfortunately there are still a lot of questions that I can't reply myself. But I really want to get better so I made a draft of my current concept. I hope you can help me answering my questions and improving my project.
I'm especially interested in best practices.
Here is my draft:

The code covers the basic use cases but I'm still not sure how to link the particular components with each other.
While reading about MVVM I noticed that there is always more than one possible solution/approach. I discovered the following questions:
Is the ECountBleManager the right place to store the variables that I got by calling characteristics.getValue() and when yes, should I place the variables that I discover in OtaFragment in it too (that would mean, that I have to forward the values e.g. of mtu to the ECountBleManager)? Consider that I have to access the variables that I discover in OtaFragment and maybe other Fragments.
Where do I store the variables from OtaFragment? In ECountVieModel or in ECountBleManager or do I create an OtaViewModel (but how could I access the ECountBleManager instance that I already created in ECountViewModel within the OtaViewModel?)
How can I access mtu, priority and otaAppFile which were discovered in OtaFragment within the ECountBleManager?
Do I have one ViewModel for every activity and fragment? But how to solve the problem with the ECountBleManager instance, see question 2?
How does the ECountBleManager fit in the MVVM pattern? I would guess it is part of the Model?! But which part? Repository, Interactor, Controller, Mediator?
The code is not less so I'm sorry but you see I'm really try harding and I want to get better. I hope someone can help me with my questions and to improve my code. Thanks in advance!
My 5 cents about BLE and an architecture:
you don't need to mix up the app architecture and BLE layer.
just think about BLE as a data-source/-repository (based on Rx, Coroutines)
split your functionality into several parts: BLE-scanner, BLE-connector, BLE-command-executor. Cover these parts by using the BLE-Fasade.
BLE layer is generally the async stuff (and it's too complicated to make them is 100% testable)
BLE layer in a deep look is the thread-safe handling of bytes. Don't handle it on the Main thread.

BleGattException when writing to a particular characteristic

Writing to a specific characteristic crashes the application and throws the following exception:
Caused by: BleGattException{status=8, bleGattOperation=BleGattOperation{description='CHARACTERISTIC_WRITE'}}
at com.polidea.rxandroidble.internal.connection.RxBleGattCallback.propagateStatusErrorIfGattErrorOccurred(RxBleGattCallback.java:245)
at com.polidea.rxandroidble.internal.connection.RxBleGattCallback.access$100(RxBleGattCallback.java:26)
at com.polidea.rxandroidble.internal.connection.RxBleGattCallback$1.onCharacteristicWrite(RxBleGattCallback.java:110)
at android.bluetooth.BluetoothGatt$1.onCharacteristicWrite(BluetoothGatt.java:407)
at android.bluetooth.IBluetoothGattCallback$Stub.onTransact(IBluetoothGattCallback.java:279)
A connection is established to the device, and other methods that both read and write seem to work fine.
Code being used:
mConnectoin.writeCharacteristic(UUID, bytes)
.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread());
My first thought was that perhaps the characteristic does not have a write permission enabled,
but the following log statement for characteristic.getProperties() returns 8, indicating it does in fact have write permissions:
.getCharacteristic(CharacteristicUUID)
.subscribe(new Action1<BluetoothGattCharacteristic>() {
#Override
public void call(BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic) {
Log.d(TAG, "characteristic permissions: " + characteristic.getPermissions());
Log.d(TAG, "characteristic properties: " + characteristic.getProperties());
}
});
So what might the issue be?
BleGattException is emitted in BluetoothGattCallback class onCharacteristicWrite() callback method. (it is inside the RxBleGattCallback class).
status comes from the Android OS BLE stack. These are described for instance here: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/bluetooth/bluedroid/+/android-5.1.0_r1/stack/include/gatt_api.h
status=8 indicates #define GATT_INSUF_AUTHORIZATION 0x08 - so it seems that you're trying to write a BluetoothCharacteristic that needs an encrypted connection (a paired device).
Unfortunately as for the moment RxAndroidBle doesn't help with pairing the devices.
As #s_noopy has pointed out, there's no specific support for pairing the device inside the library, but there are options for creating your little helper that can assist you before connecting.
RxBluetooth library has support for doing bonds in a reactive way.
I extracted the particular pieces of code and I created a small gist to share (that only does the bonding process). Feel free to fork it or improve it (the code is based on RxBluetooth). Also if someone finds a better way or there's something wrong, just point it out!
The original gist:
Update
I modified the source code of the RxBluetooth (previously named RxBluetoothHelper) as there were a bug when doing unbonding. In Android when you bond you have to listen for the bonding process in a intent (but when you unbond is not necessary, as the system is only removing the stored keys). This updated version addresses this that the previous not. Also if for some reason when you call bond the method returns false, the observable will emit onError. The gist is also updated!

How to detect if phone is connected to Android Auto

I am making an app that should change its behavior when the phone is connected to an Android Auto. It does not have any Auto capabilities and will not be marketed/submitted as an Android Auto app.
Is there a way to detect if the phone is connected to an Android Auto? I know it is possible for Auto media apps to detect their connection status via a BroadcastReceiver registered for com.google.android.gms.car.media.STATUS action. The documentation is not 100% clear, so will this reliably work also for all other non-Auto apps?
Edit: with Android 12, the solution doesn't work anymore and instead, it's better to use CarConnection API documented here
I know this is an old thread but since it comes first in Google, here is the answer from another question
public static boolean isCarUiMode(Context c) {
UiModeManager uiModeManager = (UiModeManager) c.getSystemService(Context.UI_MODE_SERVICE);
if (uiModeManager.getCurrentModeType() == Configuration.UI_MODE_TYPE_CAR) {
LogHelper.d(TAG, "Running in Car mode");
return true;
} else {
LogHelper.d(TAG, "Running on a non-Car mode");
return false;
}
}
Configuration.UI_MODE_TYPE_CAR is not working on Anroid 12. You can use CarConnection API in the androidx.car.app:app library. But that is too heavy to import entire library only for car connections if you don't need other features.
So I write a piece of code base on the CarConnection to detect Android Auto connection, as below:
class AutoConnectionDetector(val context: Context) {
companion object {
const val TAG = "AutoConnectionDetector"
// columnName for provider to query on connection status
const val CAR_CONNECTION_STATE = "CarConnectionState"
// auto app on your phone will send broadcast with this action when connection state changes
const val ACTION_CAR_CONNECTION_UPDATED = "androidx.car.app.connection.action.CAR_CONNECTION_UPDATED"
// phone is not connected to car
const val CONNECTION_TYPE_NOT_CONNECTED = 0
// phone is connected to Automotive OS
const val CONNECTION_TYPE_NATIVE = 1
// phone is connected to Android Auto
const val CONNECTION_TYPE_PROJECTION = 2
private const val QUERY_TOKEN = 42
private const val CAR_CONNECTION_AUTHORITY = "androidx.car.app.connection"
private val PROJECTION_HOST_URI = Uri.Builder().scheme("content").authority(CAR_CONNECTION_AUTHORITY).build()
}
private val carConnectionReceiver = CarConnectionBroadcastReceiver()
private val carConnectionQueryHandler = CarConnectionQueryHandler(context.contentResolver)
fun registerCarConnectionReceiver() {
context.registerReceiver(carConnectionReceiver, IntentFilter(ACTION_CAR_CONNECTION_UPDATED))
queryForState()
}
fun unRegisterCarConnectionReceiver() {
context.unregisterReceiver(carConnectionReceiver)
}
private fun queryForState() {
carConnectionQueryHandler.startQuery(
QUERY_TOKEN,
null,
PROJECTION_HOST_URI,
arrayOf(CAR_CONNECTION_STATE),
null,
null,
null
)
}
inner class CarConnectionBroadcastReceiver : BroadcastReceiver() {
// query for connection state every time the receiver receives the broadcast
override fun onReceive(context: Context?, intent: Intent?) {
queryForState()
}
}
internal class CarConnectionQueryHandler(resolver: ContentResolver?) : AsyncQueryHandler(resolver) {
// notify new queryed connection status when query complete
override fun onQueryComplete(token: Int, cookie: Any?, response: Cursor?) {
if (response == null) {
Log.w(TAG, "Null response from content provider when checking connection to the car, treating as disconnected")
notifyCarDisconnected()
return
}
val carConnectionTypeColumn = response.getColumnIndex(CAR_CONNECTION_STATE)
if (carConnectionTypeColumn < 0) {
Log.w(TAG, "Connection to car response is missing the connection type, treating as disconnected")
notifyCarDisconnected()
return
}
if (!response.moveToNext()) {
Log.w(TAG, "Connection to car response is empty, treating as disconnected")
notifyCarDisconnected()
return
}
val connectionState = response.getInt(carConnectionTypeColumn)
if (connectionState == CONNECTION_TYPE_NOT_CONNECTED) {
Log.i(TAG, "Android Auto disconnected")
notifyCarDisconnected()
} else {
Log.i(TAG, "Android Auto connected")
notifyCarConnected()
}
}
}
}
This solution works on android 6~12. If you need to detect car connection status on android 5, use the Configuration.UI_MODE_TYPE_CAR solution.
Recomendation G.Zxuan work perfect, but we must add in dependecies "androidx.car.app:app-projected:1.1.0" in build.gradle
See https://developer.android.com/training/cars/apps#car-connection
val Context.isAndroidAutoConnected: LiveData<Boolean>
get() = CarConnection(this).type
.map { it == CarConnection.CONNECTION_TYPE_PROJECTION }

implementation 'androidx.car.app:app:1.1.0'

Restart activity from ActivityTestRule after failed test

I have modified ActivityTestRule to retry executing failed test cases. I need to restart the activity and re-run the execution whenever there is a test failure.

throw caughtThrowable;
}
};
}
void finishActivity() {
if (mActivity != null) {
mActivity.finish();
mActivity = null;
}
}
public T launchAppActivity(#Nullable Intent startIntent) {
// set initial touch mode
mInstrumentation.setInTouchMode(mInitialTouchMode);

}}
If your test ended up in a different activity than what the ActivityTestRule was initialized as, you'll have to close all the activities in the backstack. This example may help:

Chromecast MediaRouteProviderService

I have strange issue, I am creating mediaprovider for chromecast using following code that works fine for first instance, list of devices is shown and once slected I use router.selectRoute(routeinfo);
but once I exit app this code unable to find Chromecast device, how ever when I remove app from running apps stack this code works fine again and show devices.
If no device is selected and app is exited using back press then also this code works fine
So what I am doing wrong here? what I think is resources are not cleared when my app exit in simple back pressed.
public class ChromecastRouteProviderService extends MediaRouteProviderService {
final String LOGTAG = "Chromecast";
private static final String CONTROL_CATEGORY = CastMediaControlIntent.categoryForCast(CastMediaControlIntent.DEFAULT_MEDIA_RECEIVER_APPLICATION_ID);
private static final MediaRouteSelector SELECTOR = new MediaRouteSelector.Builder().addControlCategory(CONTROL_CATEGORY)
.addControlCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_REMOTE_PLAYBACK).build();
private IntentFilter controlFilter;
public ChromecastRouteProviderService() {
controlFilter = new IntentFilter();
}
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
controlFilter.addCategory(IAppConstants.CATEGORY);
controlFilter.addCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_REMOTE_PLAYBACK);
}
#Override
public MediaRouteProvider onCreateMediaRouteProvider() {
return new ChromecastRouteProvider(this);
}

Hashtable routes;
public ChromecastRouteProvider(Context context) {
super(context);
routes = new Hashtable();
callback = new CastCallBack();
}
#Nullable

public RouteController onCreateRouteController(String routeId) {
MediaRouter.RouteInfo routeInfo = (MediaRouter.RouteInfo) routes.get(routeId);
if (routeInfo == null) {

mediarouter.addCallback(ChromecastRouteProviderService.SELECTOR, callback, MediaRouter.CALLBACK_FLAG_REQUEST_DISCOVERY);
return;
}
}
void updateDescriptor() {

} catch (Exception e) {

}
}

}
});
}
void stopScan() {

try {

return;
} catch (Exception exception) {
return;
}
}
class CastCallBack extends MediaRouter.Callback {
void check(MediaRouter mediarouter, MediaRouter.RouteInfo routeinfo) {
Log.i(LOGTAG, new StringBuilder().append("Checking route ").append
(routeinfo.getName()).toString());
CastDevice device = CastDevice.getFromBundle(routeinfo.getExtras());
if (routeinfo.matchesSelector(ChromecastRouteProviderService.SELECTOR)
&& device != null && device.isOnLocalNetwork()) {
routes.put(routeinfo.getId(), routeinfo);
updateDescriptor();
return;
} else {
return;
}
}
public void onRouteAdded(MediaRouter mediarouter, MediaRouter.RouteInfo routeinfo) {
super.onRouteAdded(mediarouter, routeinfo);
check(mediarouter, routeinfo);
}
public void onRouteChanged(MediaRouter mediarouter, MediaRouter.RouteInfo routeinfo) {
super.onRouteChanged(mediarouter, routeinfo);
check(mediarouter, routeinfo);
}
public void onRouteRemoved(MediaRouter mediarouter, MediaRouter.RouteInfo routeinfo) {
super.onRouteRemoved(mediarouter, routeinfo);
if (routeinfo.matchesSelector(ChromecastRouteProviderService.SELECTOR)) ;
}
}
}
}
Ok finally I found answer on my own,
Problem is when any provider is selected it's not added using onRouteAdded why? I really dont understand google logic
So the solution is to unselect the router when you want or better select default route when so that your route is released
MediaRouter.getInstance(this).getDefaultRoute().select();
But again 1 out of 10 times it will not work
Hope will help someone
