Android BLE: connect and subscribe characteristic notifications for 2 BLE peripheral devices

I'm using two BLE peripheral sensors and 1 mobile phone (central). Each BLE peripheral device works well (tested individually).
I followed the <BluetoothLeGatt> example. My phone is HUAWEI Mate 10, which uses Android version 10 and supports BLE 4.2.
In my Android BLE App, after press the Connect Button on the 1st page, App will automatically connect to 2 BLE devices with the names "BC805M BLE ADC1" and "BC805M BLE ADC2".
It seems the App could connect with 2 BLE devices successfully. However, no data received (fail to subscribe characteristic notification). BluetoothGattCallback.onCharacteristicChanged() method is never fired. Therefore, the action never becomes "ACTION_DATA_AVAILABLE".

I understand the BLE communication is serial. Some people suggested using "onDescriptorWrite()" in BluetoothGattCallback(). However, I don't fully understand how to do it. I attached my Android Studio project here. It would be very appreciated if someone could find the issue.

how to connect to Bluetooth Low Energy Device

What is the target version of targetSdkVersion. I had similar issue and changed build.gradle to
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.XXX.XXXr"
minSdkVersion 21
targetSdkVersion 22
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
It solved the problem, but I have some others needs to be solved...

How to transfer int from one .java class to another? Having issues with common ways

My goal in this question is push the rssilevel from one .java file to the other.
I tried to push from class 1 to class 2, as well as pulling data dfrom class 1 to class 2 and i have always had my app crash.
I tried
ProximityManager temp = new ProximityManager();
int temp = temp.rssilevel;
The above code is in a class in the same package, but different .java file and class. They are linked.
and it would not work, any other ideas please!
EDIT: Also how would i call the function playSound() in another class?
i would normaly do something like Public ProximityManager mProximityManager;
then call mProximityManager.playSound(); but i get an app crash when i do this.

When I debug, onCharacteristicChange() never executes.
Somebody knows where's the problem

Here is the general pattern for how things need to work with BLE on Android:
You try to connect
You get a callback indicating it is connected
You discover services
You are told services are discovered
You get the characteristics
For each characteristic you get the descriptors
For the descriptor you set it to enable notification/indication with BluetoothGattDescriptor.setValue()
You write the descriptor with BluetoothGatt.writeDescriptor()
You enable notifications for the characteristic locally with BluetoothGatt.setCharacteristicNotification(). Without this you won't get called back.
You get notification that the descriptor was written
Now you can write data to the characteristic. All of the characteristic and descriptor configuration has do be done before anything is written to any characteristic.
