onCharacteristicChanged not being hit. Android BLE

I have an app that is using BLE connectivity with my device. Everything works from connecting to the device, discovering the services, writing the characteristic and descriptor. But for some reason, onCharacteristicChanged is not triggering. The goal is to retrieve the data from the characteristic that is in the characteristic. I have tried using a different characteristic from the same service and this works as in retrieving the data. Not sure why this specific characteristic is not working when others are.
Here is my code:
//Descriptor

// Huneo Service
public final static UUID UUID_HUNEO_SERVICE = UUID.fromString(GattAttributes.HUNEO_SERVICE);

Hopefully, someone can help me out. I'm out of ideas.

Found the solution. The third-party forgot to mention that I had to set the right value to enable the characteristic. I tried that and it worked! Finally, got data values.

Results in onCharacteristicChanged in array are not displayed properly

I want to get every value of the array messageBytes in onCharacteristicChanged method but the logcat message is a bit messy. I have made my values in bold style. Any solution to get every single array value? Thanks.

writeCharacteristic BLE API work only once

I am trying to write a characteristic value on a BLE peripheral. I am using the code mentioned below(writeCharacteristics method). I am able to write the characteristics on the peripheral on a button click, but this operation is successful only once. Subsequent write are not sent to the device as I can verify this from checking BLE logs over the air. Also the callback onCharacteristicWrite is not fired when I use the write characteristic API.
Here since I set the property in the peripheral, I am not performing any check.

I am using Android N and One Plus 3T hardware. Any comments on this is greatly appreciated.

What is the result of method call BluetoothGatt::writeCharacteristic(BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic)
According to the doc
it returns boolean true, if the write operation was initiated successfully
It will return false if you try to do more than one write or read in a row. You have to wait for the result of a previous read or write before doing the next one.
This is probably why it works only the first time.

android BLE polar h7

i would to to show the value of heart rate from Polar H7 on TextView in Fragment (not on the Activity).

The line:
int flag = characteristic.getProperties();
in the sample code is expected to return the bit mask for the supported characteristic fields. It doesn't. It returns the characteristic properties, like PROPERTY_NOTIFY.
To get the bit mask for the supported characteristic fields, in the case of the example's Heart Rate Measurement characteristic, the first value of the characteristic needs to be read and used.
Thus replacing the line
int flag = characteristic.getProperties();
with something like
byte[] charValue = characteristic.getValue();
byte flag = charValue[0];
will work correctly.

onServicesDiscovered(BluetoothGatt gatt, int status) is never called

I have a BluetoothLeService which is called from IntentService. BLEService works fine until it connects. After it establishes the connection with iBeacon, it calls ;
public void onConnectionStateChange(BluetoothGatt gatt, int status, int newState) {
String intentAction;
if (newState == BluetoothProfile.STATE_CONNECTED) {
intentAction = ACTION_GATT_CONNECTED;
mConnectionState = STATE_CONNECTED;
broadcastUpdate(intentAction);
Log.i(TAG, "Connected to GATT server.");
// Attempts to discover services after successful connection.
Log.i(TAG, "Attempting to start service discovery:" +
mBluetoothGatt.discoverServices());
} else if (newState == BluetoothProfile.STATE_DISCONNECTED) {
intentAction = ACTION_GATT_DISCONNECTED;
mConnectionState = STATE_DISCONNECTED;
Log.i(TAG, "Disconnected from GATT server.");
broadcastUpdate(intentAction);
}
}
Everything is okay so far but after that point in spite of mBluetoothGatt.discoverServices() returns true, onServicesDiscovered(BluetoothGatt gatt, int status) is never called.

I figured it out. The real problem is connection. It shows like it is connected but it is not, I tried to connect with false address and it still connected.
After I added
mBluetoothGatt.connect();
at the end of connect method of BluetoothLeService.java it started to work.
Thanks for helps Vikram Ezhil

Did you bind the service
# your_Main_Actiivty
Intent gattServiceIntent = new Intent(getActivity(), your_Service_class.class);
// Starting the service
bindService(gattServiceIntent, mServiceConnection, BIND_AUTO_CREATE);
Updated:
Update your code as per the below, connect() method should be called from inside onServiceConnected()
private final ServiceConnection mServiceConnection = new ServiceConnection()
{
#Override
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName name, IBinder service)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mBluetoothLeService = ((BluetoothLeService.LocalBinder) service).getService();
if (!bluetoothHDPService.initialize())
{
Log.e(TAG, "Unable to initialize Bluetooth");
finish();
};
// connnect method() should be called here and not anywhere else
mBluetoothLeService.connect("1C:BA:8C:21:60:E9");
};
#Override
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName name)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mBluetoothLeService = null;
};
};
2nd Update
It seems you never called setCharacteristicNotification method. Add the below line of code after
mBluetoothGatt.readCharacteristic(batteryLevel);
mBluetoothGatt.setCharacteristicNotification(batterLevel,true)
