I have Android application which exposes BLE Server. I connect with BluetoothGattServer#connect. It works - my app gets call to BluetoothGattServerCallback#onConnectionStateChange with STATE_CONNECTED. When I'm done with the client I try to disconnect from my app with BluetoothGattServer#cancelConnection.
But I do not get call to BluetoothGattServerCallback#onConnectionStateChange and it seems that the connection is still active as my BLE client does not start to advertise (which it does when nothing is connected to it).
In logcat I see only:
BluetoothGattServer: cancelConnection() - device: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
The funny part is, my app gets call to BluetoothGattServerCallback#onConnectionStateChange with STATE_DISCONNECTED as soon as I turn off BT completely.
Similar issues in Google's tracker: 63461 and 63464.
When newState==BluetoothProfile.STATE_CONNECTED, you have to call BluetoothGattServer.connect();.
#Override
public void onConnectionStateChange(BluetoothDevice device, int status, int newState) {
super.onConnectionStateChange(device, status, newState);
if (newState == BluetoothProfile.STATE_CONNECTED){
mDevice = device;
mBluetoothGattServer.connect(device, false);
}else {
mDevice = null;
}
}
private void cancelConnection(){
if (mDevice != null) {
mBluetoothGattServer.cancelConnection(mDevice);
}
}
Encountering same issue when calling disconnect() method.. no disconnect is given in onConnectionStateChange in my BluetoothGattCallback.
Cycling Bluetooth seems the be the only thing that works.
edit:
also, after disconnect() and close() method are called, I am still connected according to this code:
public int getConnectedBLEDevices() {
int i = 0;
List<BluetoothDevice> devices = mBluetoothManager.getConnectedDevices(BluetoothProfile.GATT);
for(BluetoothDevice device : devices) {
if(device.getType() == BluetoothDevice.DEVICE_TYPE_LE) {
Logs.writeEvent(TAG+".getConnectedBLEDevices()", device.getAddress() + "\n"+ getStateAsString(mBluetoothManager.getConnectionState(device, BluetoothProfile.GATT)));
i++;
}
}
return i;
}
pls see https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37127644
Status: Won't Fix (Intended Behavior)
You must call BluetoothGattServer.connect() to mark connection as used, then BluetoothGattServer.disconnect() to mark it as no longer used. Then after a timeout stack can decide to disconnect from the remote if no one else is using the connection.
If BluetoothGattServer.connect() is not called after the connection is established, then the stack is keeping the connection until some gatt client/server app start using this connection.
Does anyone have a complete working example of how to programmatically pair with a BLE (not Bluetooth Classic) device that uses passkey entry (i.e. a 6-digit PIN) or Numeric Comparison on Android 4.4 or later? By 'programmatically' I mean I tell Android the PIN - the user isn't prompted.
There are many similar questions about this on SO but they are either a) about Bluetooth Classic, b) old (before setPin() and createBond() were public), or c) unanswered.
My understanding is as follows.
You connect to the device and discover its services.
You try to read a 'protected' characteristic.
The device returns an authentication error.
Android somehow initiates pairing and you tell it the PIN.
You can now read the characteristic.
I have created a device using mBed running on the nRF51-DK and given it a single characteristic.
I set up the security parameters like so:
ble.securityManager().init(
true, // Enable bonding (though I don't really need this)
true, // Require MitM protection. I assume you don't get a PIN prompt without this, though I'm not 100% sure.
SecurityManager::IO_CAPS_DISPLAY_ONLY, // This makes it us the Passkey Entry (PIN) pairing method.
"123456"); // Static PIN
And then in the characteristic I used
requireSecurity(SecurityManager::SECURITY_MODE_ENCRYPTION_WITH_MITM);
Now when I try to read it with the Nordic Master Control Panel, I get a pairing request notification like this:
And I can put this PIN in, and then MCP says I'm bonded, and can read the characteristic.
However, in my app I would like to avoid having the user enter the PIN, since I know it already. Does anyone have a complete recent example of how to do this?
Edit: By the way this is the most relevant question I found on SO, but the answer there doesn't seem to work.
I almost have it working. It pairs programmatically but I can't get rid of the "Pairing request" notification. Some answers to this question claim to be able to hide it just after it is shown using the hidden method cancelPairingUserInput() but that doesn't seem to work for me.
Edit: Success!
I eventually resorted to reading the source code of BluetoothPairingRequest and the code that sends the pairing request broadcast and realised I should be intercepting the ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST. Fortunately it is an ordered intent broadcast so you can intercept it before the system does.
Here's the procedure.
Register to receive BluetoothDevice.ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST changed broadcast intents. Use a high priority!
Connect to the device.
Discover services.
If you have disconnected by now, it's probably because the bond information is incorrect (e.g. the peripheral purged it). In that case, delete the bond information using a hidden method (seriously Google), and reconnect.
Try to read a characteristic that requires encryption MitM protection.
In the ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST broadcast receiver, check that the pairing type is BluetoothDevice.PAIRING_VARIANT_PIN and if so, call setPin() and abortBroadcast(). Otherwise you can just let the system handle it, or show an error or whatever.
Here is the code.
/* This implements the BLE connection logic. Things to watch out for:
1. If the bond information is wrong (e.g. it has been deleted on the peripheral) then
discoverServices() will cause a disconnect. You need to delete the bonding information and reconnect.
2. If the user ignores the PIN request, you get the undocumented GATT_AUTH_FAILED code.

I also faced the same problem and after all the research, I figured out the below solution to pair to a BLE without any manual intervention.
(Tested and working!!!)
I am basically looking for a particular Bluetooth device (I know MAC address) and pair with it once found. The first thing to do is to create pair request using a broadcast receiver and handle the request as below.
IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST);
intentFilter.setPriority(IntentFilter.SYSTEM_HIGH_PRIORITY);
registerReceiver(broadCastReceiver,intentFilter);
You need to write the broadcastReceiver and handle it as below.
String BLE_PIN = "1234"
private BroadcastReceiver broadCastReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
if(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST.equals(action))
{
BluetoothDevice bluetoothDevice = intent.getParcelableExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE);
bluetoothDevice.setPin(BLE_PIN.getBytes());
Log.e(TAG,"Auto-entering pin: " + BLE_PIN);
bluetoothDevice.createBond();
Log.e(TAG,"pin entered and request sent...");
}
}
};
Voila! You should be able to pair to Bluetooth device without ANY MANUAL INTERVENTION.
Hope this helps :-) Please make it right answer if it works for you.
I am developing an Android Application that connects to a BLE Device and reads the Gatt Services and Gatt Characteristics. I used the BluetoothLeGatt sample project from the Android Development Site as my reference.
So far, I am able to programmatically connect to a device (I took note of my Device's Address to be able to do this) and filter out the specific Gatt Service I want to read and that Services' specific Characteristics by taking note of the UUID of both the Service and the Characteristics. The sample provided by Google also updates whenever there's a message sent from my BLE Device to my Android Application. Overall, I have no problems at this end.
However, upon reading up further on GATT, I found that it is possible to connect to multiple BLE devices (all slaves OR servers - being the ones that send the data) using a single Android Application (as master OR client - as the one who receives said data). So what I tried to do was to have 2 BLE Devices (different Address), took note of their Address, and then my application tries to connect to them once the application sees that those 2 addresses are up and running.
In code, I call this function when I see my 2 BLE Devices:
private void connectToDevice(){
mDeviceName = deviceList.get(currentIndex).getName();
mDeviceAddress = deviceList.get(currentIndex).getAddress();
Log.e(TAG, "connecting to device name = " + mDeviceName);
mBluetoothLeService.connect(mDeviceAddress);
}
Where currentIndex is initially set to zero. Then once I get a successful connection, I do:
private final BroadcastReceiver mGattUpdateReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
final String action = intent.getAction();
if (BluetoothLeService.ACTION_GATT_CONNECTED.equals(action)) {
Log.e(TAG, "connected");
mConnected = true;
if(currentIndex < deviceList.size()-1) currentIndex ++;
connectToDevice();
}
}
};
Where I check if I still have devices to connect to in my deviceList, if so, increment my counter and then connect until I exhaust everything in my list.
However, I seem to have no success at all using this method.
Kindly note that switching connection (round robin) between my devices isn't an option. This will be an issue when I have a lot of devices and it's important to get their messages real time without delays. This said, I have to have a live connection to my devices.
Has anyone tried to connect to multiple BLE Devices in Android? I'm not sure on how to proceed on this.
Indeed it is possible to connect to more than one peripheral from your Android device. However, it will make your code much more complex since you will need to manage each connection and responses.
For each connection you would have to implement a BluetoothGatt with it's callbacks. I tested it many months ago with a dummy test and as I said, it worked well and I was able to connect to different peripherals. However, if you chain many commands there seem to be some overlapping issues described in this thread.
As asked here is the relevant code : (Here the ArrayList contains the founded peripheral devices)
for(int i=0;i< Utility.selectedDeviceList.size();i++) {
Log.d(Utility.TAG,"state"+ Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(i).getmConnectionState());
if (Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(i).getmConnectionState() != Utility.CONNECTED) {
Log.d(Utility.TAG,"Connecting LeSerive::" + Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(i).getAddress());
Utility.mBluetoothLeService.connect(i, Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(i).getAddress());
}
}
This for loop is a part of runnable interface which is called inside a handler having a looper.
public void run() {
Looper.prepare();
Looper mLooper = Looper.myLooper();
Log.d(Utility.TAG,"BLE Thread Started::");
mHandler = new Handler(mLooper) {
#Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
switch (msg.what) {
case Utility.BLE_SYNC:
Log.d(Utility.TAG,"BLE Sync Connecting::");
mHandler.post(SynState);
break;
}
};
Looper.loop();
}
I used this approach because their is lot of communication between peripherals to send and receive the data from them.
This is the connect method which inside a Service :
public boolean connect(int tag,final String address) {
if (mBluetoothAdapter == null || address == null) {
Log.w(Utility.TAG, "BluetoothAdapter not initialized or unspecified address.");
return false;
}
Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(tag).setmConnectionState(Utility.CONNECTING);
if( Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(tag).getmBluetoothGatt()==null){
Log.w(Utility.TAG, "new connect :: "+ Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(tag).getAddress());
BluetoothDevice device = mBluetoothAdapter.getRemoteDevice(address);
if (device == null) {
Log.w(Utility.TAG, "Device not found. Unable to connect.");
return false;
}
try {
Utility.selectedDeviceList.get(tag).setmBluetoothGatt(device.connectGatt(this, false, mGattCallback));
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
Log.d(Utility.TAG,"ConnectGatt exception caught");
}
}
return true;
}
This is the mGattCallBack :
private final BluetoothGattCallback mGattCallback = new BluetoothGattCallback() {
#Override
public void onConnectionStateChange(BluetoothGatt gatt, int status, int newState) {
}
#Override
public void onServicesDiscovered(BluetoothGatt gatt, int status) {
Log.d(Utility.TAG, "onServicesDiscovered");
}
#Override
public void onCharacteristicRead(BluetoothGatt gatt,BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic,int status) {
}
#Override
public void onCharacteristicWrite(BluetoothGatt gatt,
BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic, int status) {
super.onCharacteristicWrite(gatt, characteristic, status);
Log.d(Utility.TAG,">>onCharacteristicWrite");
}
#Override
public void onCharacteristicChanged(BluetoothGatt gatt,BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic) {
}
};
Hope it clears few things for you
It is possible to connect to multiple devices at a time. in my experience it works pretty stable and the number of devices you can connect to (stable) depends on your hardware. I found out that best practise (for me) was to create one separate service for the scanning stuff and one service for each Bluetoothconnection. it's important not to use bound services because the termination of a connection is not stible when binding to it.
With this pattern you can control your connection easily. To transport data out of your service you can use a broadcastreceiver, for example if you want to display the data in your main activity. Termination of the connection is pretty important so stop the service and in onDestroy call
mConnectedGatt.disconnect();
ble_device=null;
For the Scanning part I've used a List of Strings where I saved all the mac Adresses I want to find. When i found one device I deleted it from the list and if the list is empty it stopped the scanner service. To transmit my found device I used a broadcastreceiver and sent it to my main Activity. There I transmitted it to the right service.
Hope this helps
I am trying to send all the audio of an application via SCO.
I am able to successfully send the audio,
But when an incoming call comes I need to disconnect form SCO so that the application audio will not interfere with the call,
The problem is that, when I try to reroute the audio to SCO after the call, it does not work.
Here is the code I use to send the audio to SCO:
public class BluetoothManager {
// For Bluetooth connectvity
private static String TAG = "BluetoothManager";
private static BluetoothAdapter mBluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
private static AudioManager aM;
/**
* Set the audio manager of the device.
* #param c: The context this method is called from
*/
public static void setAudioManager(Context c) {
aM = (android.media.AudioManager)c.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
}
/**
* Check if a Bluetooth headset is connected. If so, route audio to Bluetooth SCO.
*/
private static void initializeAudioMode(Context context) {
BluetoothProfile.ServiceListener mProfileListener = new BluetoothProfile.ServiceListener() {
public void onServiceConnected(int profile, BluetoothProfile proxy) {
if (profile == BluetoothProfile.HEADSET) {
BluetoothHeadset bh = (BluetoothHeadset) proxy;
List<BluetoothDevice> devices = bh.getConnectedDevices();
if (devices.size() > 0) {
enableBluetoothSCO();
}
}
mBluetoothAdapter.closeProfileProxy(profile, proxy);
}
public void onServiceDisconnected(int profile) {}
};
mBluetoothAdapter.getProfileProxy(context, mProfileListener, BluetoothProfile.HEADSET);
}
/**
* Bluetooth Connectvity
* The following methods are associated with enabling/disabling Bluetooth.
* In the future we may want to disable other sources of audio.
*/
private static void enableBluetoothSCO() {
aM.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_CALL);
aM.startBluetoothSco();
aM.setBluetoothScoOn(true);
}
/** Right now, this simply enables Bluetooth */
#SuppressLint("NewApi")
public static boolean enableBluetooth(Context c) {
// If there is an adapter, enable it if not already enabled
if (mBluetoothAdapter != null) {
if (!mBluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) {
mBluetoothAdapter.enable();
}
setAudioManager(c);
initializeAudioMode(c);
Log.e(TAG, "SCO: " + aM.isBluetoothScoOn());
Log.e(TAG, "A2DP: " + aM.isSpeakerphoneOn());
return true;
} else {
Log.v(TAG, "There is no bluetooth adapter");
return false;
}
}
/** Right now, this simply disables Bluetooth */
public static void disableBluetooth() {
// If there is an adapter, disabled it if not already disabled
if (mBluetoothAdapter != null) {
if (mBluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) {
mBluetoothAdapter.disable();
}
} else {
Log.v(TAG, "There is no bluetooth adapter");
}
}
public static void restartBluetooth(){
aM.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_IN_CALL);
}
public static void stopBluetooth(){
aM.setMode(AudioManager.MODE_NORMAL);
}
}
When I call stopBluetooth() correctly the audio of the application is not sent to the headset anymore,
But when I call restartBluetooth() the audio plays NOT form the headset as intended, but from the phone speakers.
Is it possible that the SCO link was brought down after the call ended? If this is the case then the SCO link would also have to be brought up along with routing the audio.
Have you tried calling enableBluetoothSCO() within restartBluetooth()
You probably need to call:
aM.startBluetoothSco();
aM.setBluetoothScoOn(true);
after you set the mode.
inside your restart function initialize everything again, and see if it works. like so:
public static void restartBluetooth(){
enableBluetooth(getApplicationContext());
}
if this works then it means that when the call is ended the last initialization is lost for some reason.
Google Doc say's that
"Phone application always has the priority on the usage of the SCO connection for telephony. If this method is called while the phone is in call it will be ignored. Similarly, if a call is received or sent while an application is using the SCO connection, the connection will be lost for the application and NOT returned automatically when the call ends."
So when call is disconnected you must have to re-establish the connection by calling startBluetoothSco()
For anyone that is still having issues with this, there are a few things that need to be done. The first thing you need to do is to keep track of the phone state. You can see how to do that here:
How to know Phone call has ended?
When the state is idle that means the incoming call has ended. Now if you try to reconnect the bluetooth at this point you'll find it still does not work since it takes a while (roughly 2 seconds) for the call to "release" the bluetooth device.
So you have two option, wait a bit then try to reconnect, or you can add another listener to BluetoothHeadset.ACTION_AUDIO_STATE_CHANGED.
You can then add a global boolean value isIdle that is true when TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE or false when TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK (Otherwise you'll reconnect to BlueTooth during the incoming call). At this point when BluetoothHeadset.STATE_DISCONNECTED and isIdle is true, then reconnect to Bluetooth.
#Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent.getAction().equals((BluetoothHeadset.ACTION_AUDIO_STATE_CHANGED))){
int state = intent.getIntExtra(BluetoothHeadset.EXTRA_STATE, BluetoothHeadset.STATE_AUDIO_DISCONNECTED);
switch(state) {
case BluetoothHeadset.STATE_AUDIO_DISCONNECTED:
if (isIdle){
//reconnect bluetooth
}
break;
}
}
if(("OFFHOOK").equals(intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE))) {
isIdle = false;
// turn bluetooth off
}
if(("IDLE").equals(intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE))) {
isIdle = true;
}
}
I'm pretty new with Android programming. But I have been working on this for over a week now, and it starts to get booooring.
My idea is that I want to connect two devices using Wifi Direct. But I only want to connect to those which are running my application. Besides, I want the users to be able to see some information of the other devices (such as user name), not just the MAC or the Android_XXXX name included in the WifiP2pDevice. That's why I decided that a device looking for other devices, should both start the application service and search for peers which are also broadcasting this service.
The problem (I'm testing with two real devices) is that, even though they are running exactly the same code, only one of them is getting the service discovery callbacks (the onDnsSd... listeners below). So, one side acts in the proper way, but not the other. Moreover I'm getting "old" services, meaning that apparently each time I start de service (even though I cancel previously started services), that service seems to be still broadcast during at least some minutes.
I include a shortened version of my code:
public class MoveFlufietsDialogFragment extends DialogFragment implements ChannelListener, DeviceActionListener {
public final HashMap<String, FlufietsPeer> mBuddies = new HashMap<String, FlufietsPeer>();
#Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...

mChannel = mManager.initialize(getActivity(), getActivity().getMainLooper(), null);

#Override

// This and the next listener are only called in one of the devices.
String serviceName = (String) record.get("serviceName");
if ((serviceName != null) && (serviceName.equals("flufiets")) {
// I put the record data in the mBuddies HashMap.
...
mBuddies.put(device.deviceAddress, myPeerDataStructure);
}
}
};
DnsSdServiceResponseListener servListener = new DnsSdServiceResponseListener() {
#Override
public void onDnsSdServiceAvailable(String instanceName, String registrationType, WifiP2pDevice resourceType) {
if (mBuddies.containsKey(resourceType.deviceAddress)) {
FlufietsPeer flufietsPeer = mBuddies.get(resourceType.deviceAddress);

The problem doesn't seem to be related with the device itself (sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but always only in one of them). I suspect it has to do with either trying to discover a service that we ourselves are broadcasting, or having the same service being offered by two devices. I have tried changing the names of the service, so each device would offer either a "send" or "receive" service, but it doesn't work. I only get the callbacks called (onDnsSd...) in one of the devices.
And that thing about getting old services, when I always clear them, is weird (I do include a timestamp in the service record data, and I could always discard all but the last, but doesn't seem to be logical).
Any ideas? ANY help would be VERY appreciated, because writing the application is not funny any more (:-)=
Thanks a lot!
You need to wait until the clearLocalService call succeeds before adding the local service later. So put the addLocalService call into the onSuccess callback of the clearLocalServices.
