How to keep transmitting data in Android Bluetooth connection? - android

I am developing an android application which transmits queries to a bluetooth device and retrieves data from it. In the app, a connection is established by tapping on an available device in the upper part of the screen, and then there's a button on the bottom half which triggers the sending of the query and the text box next to it displays the data.
I am able to successfully connect to the device and fetch data from it once, but when I hit the query button the second time around, the app crashes.
In the code I start the ConnectedThread thread once I hit the button, and then at the end of the thread code a handler is called which then displays the text on the screen. The second time I hit the button my code tries to start the same thread again - this causes the error. I have been trying out to a way to stop the connectedThread once the received data is received, this way I can start and close the connectedThread for every transmit-receive.
Can you please suggest a solution to the issue or a way to improvise the code structure. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Why isn't my bluetooth activity able to connect to the device I tap on?

I followed a Bluetooth tutorial video on how to create a connection using my app with other Bluetooth devices.
However, I am unable to connect to the devices directly on the app itself. I was expecting the code to allow me to do something like "Connecting..." once I tap on the device name I want to engage a connection with.

send and receive string with bluetooth in 2 android devices

hi guys i am trying to send string from one phone to anther .
1) from one phone(client) i am clicking the paired listview to connect with the anther device(ConnectThread).
2) the second phone which is the server alerts that he has been connected with the device in step 1(AcceptThread).
3) after he get connected he start a new managerconnection thread and send along a string(in AcceptThread after connecting is sucessfull it starts a new managerConnection thread .
4) the other phone(after been connected to server it starts a new managerConnecting thread) should get the bytes from function read and put in the log how much bytes he read it seems its not getting any bytes at all can someone tell me what should i changed in my code?

send and receive data via bluetooth

you can say that i'm new in android development, i need some help to synchronize some data in two devices with my application, i have done all necessary things like searching for available devices and pairing and unpairing ... all what i need now is how to make a connection between the two devices and send and receive data, to explain more, i need to select a device from my listview and connect with it, after that lets say that i have a text field and a textview and a button, when i click on the button i need to send the text in the textfield of the first device to the textview of other device and vise-versa.

Displaying Bluetooth Serial Data

I am new to Android development and have been working with Bluetooth communication on my Tablet running 4.2.2. I am looking to receive data sent from a Bluetooth module to my Tablet. I have a good understanding of how to set up Bluetooth sockets via the Android website, however I need help in receiving the incoming serial data. Using the code below, I am able to find the module, open a socket connection and connect to it (as indicated by a green light on the module), however I need help in displaying the transmitted data on the UI via a TextView. The module is sending 2 bytes of data every second at 9600 baud. It is my understanding that run() reads in the 2 bytes of data and stores it in the buffer. Then these bytes get passed to the handler which display it on the screen via "case MESSAGE_READ;". Could someone please let me know what I am doing incorrectly?

Actually, you should call connectedThread.start(), NOT connectedThread.run(). The start() method causes connectedThread to do its run() method on a separate thread, If you directly call run(), is suggested above, then only that run() method (which is usally an infinite loop, will block all other code, including the UI thread.

Programmatically connecting two Android devices through Bluetooth

I'm trying to get data from one of my devices to another, through bluetooth.
I previously tried to run the bluetoothChat sample code from the android website but have had no success.
I have now moved on to this bit of code that I have found and though it does compile on my devices they don't connect with one another.
Anyone see anything wrong with this code below? And if anyone might know of some good resources for bluetooth on the android I would be appreciative if they would share them with me!

The problem is in your init() method which registers the BroadcastReceiver with this activity in your onCreate() method and in onPause() you have unregistered the BroadcastReceiver.
Try to register it in your onResume() method so that you can receive
the broadcast whenever you resume to this activity.
