BluetoothSocket not connecting to target device

I'm trying to connect my device to another one via Bluetooth, but when I select the device I want to connect with, I get an IOException saying
read failed, socket might closed or timeout, read ret: -1
Just to illustrate how my app works, I have a RecyclerView populated with the devices my Bluetooth scan has found, then when I click an item the app is supposed to connect with that device.
Below is my the code for my connection thread:
private val MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb")
private lateinit var device: BluetoothDevice
private lateinit var onDeviceActionListener: OnDeviceActionListener
private lateinit var socket: BluetoothSocket
fun init(device: BluetoothDevice,
onDeviceActionListener: OnDeviceActionListener): ConnectionThread {
this.device = device
this.onDeviceActionListener = onDeviceActionListener
try {
socket = device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(MY_UUID)
} catch (e: IOException) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error creating socket", e)
}
return this
}
override fun run() {
try {
socket.connect()
} catch (openException: IOException) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error opening connection. Trying to close...", openException)
try {
socket.close()
} catch (closeException: IOException) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error closing socket", closeException)
}
return
}
onDeviceActionListener.onDeviceConnect(device)
}
My guess is there is something wrong with my UUID. I've tried some other values but still didn't work.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Well, I don't see exactly what you are doing wrong here. However, I have done quite a bit of Bluetooth work. More recently just focused in BLE. You should be able to discover your nearby BT devices and see their UUIDs.
I have written a helper class about 3 years ago so it's a little old, but should be mostly the same code. Happy to share it with you if it helps.

Suggestions as to why application cant pick up connected clients (Code Provided)

Hey guys ive been working on a project to create a type of wifi hot spot manager, so that it records the connected devices with mac address, ip address and other information. However i can't seem to work out as to why when i press get Clients from screen it doesn't gather any data of whos connected. I have compiled the file to an APK to test on my phone seeing as wifi functionality does not work on the emulator in android studio.
Credit for the code goes to:

Android XMPP avoid resource conflict

I'm using Smack and Openfire for my XMPP connection/server. But I've run into the very common problem (apparently) of resource conflicts. Can anyone tell me the proper way of handling a conflict?
Openfire is set to always kick the original resource (it's a bespoke platform, not open to the public). But I still get the error and don't get a new connection. My XMPP class is below.

From what I've read, openfire (when set to always kick) will always kick the original resource and then allow the new login to connect, but I'm not seeing this at all. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The proper way to deal with resource conflicts is to not use a fixed resource unless you absolutely must. If your client specifies no resource when logging in, the server should assign it a randomly generated one which will never conflict.
There are very few reasons why you'd ever need to specify a fixed resource, as most clients hide the resource of your contacts anyway, and there are other reasons why having a new resource on every connection is advantageous (like avoiding a common bug with group chats getting out of sync because the group chat's server didn't realize the connecting user is actually a new session).
A big problem with fixed resources is reconnection loops, where, if the server is configured to kick the old conflicting resource, two clients kick each other repeatedly. You should make sure you don't automatically reconnect when receiving a resource conflict error.

From what I've read, openfire (when set to always kick) will always kick the original resource and then allow the new login to connect,…
Terminating the other connection with the same resource, ie. the previous one, is one option to deal with it. Most, if not all, XMPP servers provide this policy option regarding handling resource conflicts.
I can't comment on why setting Openfire to "Always kick" doesn't work for you, but it certainly does for me. And IIRC there are no current bug reports in Openfire that tell otherwise.
There is also another trivial approach: If you get a resource conflict on login(), simply specify a different resource: login(String username, String password, String resource).
Or even more trivial: If you don't care how what the resource String is, you can have the server auto assign one to you. Simply use 'null' as resource argument: login(user, password, null).

Examples using CastCompanionLibrary to simply display an image

I am looking for and example of casting an image to chromecast in android. Oddly enough it doesn't seem like this is covered in the googlecast sample repositories. Does anyone have a simple implementation of this? I basically would like to click on an image in my app's photo gallery on my android device and have it cast to the screen.
One side question is, does the image need to be at a url? or is it possible to stream the image to the device? I appreciate the help in advance.

I've solved this without the CastCompanionLibrary, but based on google's CastHelloText-android sample. Basically what I did was:
encode an image into a base64 string and send it as a message to a custom receiver
modify the sample's receiver to receive a base64 string and set it as the image source.
upload and register my receiver and have the application use the generated application id
This is the code for the receiver:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
img#androidImage {
height:auto;
width:100%;
}
</style>
<title>Cast Hello Text</title>
</head>
<body>
<img id="androidImage" src="" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.gstatic.com/cast/sdk/libs/receiver/2.0.0/cast_receiver.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
cast.receiver.logger.setLevelValue(0);
window.castReceiverManager = cast.receiver.CastReceiverManager.getInstance();
console.log('Starting Receiver Manager');
// handler for the 'ready' event
castReceiverManager.onReady = function(event) {
console.log('Received Ready event: ' + JSON.stringify(event.data));
window.castReceiverManager.setApplicationState("Application status is ready...");
};
// handler for 'senderconnected' event
castReceiverManager.onSenderConnected = function(event) {
console.log('Received Sender Connected event: ' + event.data);
console.log(window.castReceiverManager.getSender(event.data).userAgent);
};
// handler for 'senderdisconnected' event
castReceiverManager.onSenderDisconnected = function(event) {
console.log('Received Sender Disconnected event: ' + event.data);
if (window.castReceiverManager.getSenders().length == 0) {
window.close();
}
};
// handler for 'systemvolumechanged' event
castReceiverManager.onSystemVolumeChanged = function(event) {
console.log('Received System Volume Changed event: ' + event.data['level'] + ' ' +
event.data['muted']);
};
// create a CastMessageBus to handle messages for a custom namespace
window.messageBus =
window.castReceiverManager.getCastMessageBus(
'urn:x-cast:com.google.cast.sample.helloworld');
// handler for the CastMessageBus message event
window.messageBus.onMessage = function(event) {
console.log('Message recieved');
var obj = JSON.parse(event.data)
console.log('Message type: ' + obj.type);
if (obj.type == "text") {
console.log('Skipping message: ' + obj.data);
}
if (obj.type == "image") {
var source = 'data:image/png;base64,'.concat(obj.data)
displayImage(source);
}
// inform all senders on the CastMessageBus of the incoming message event
// sender message listener will be invoked
window.messageBus.send(event.senderId, event.data);
}
// initialize the CastReceiverManager with an application status message
window.castReceiverManager.start({statusText: "Application is starting"});
console.log('Receiver Manager started');
};
function displayImage(source) {
console.log('received image');
document.getElementById("androidImage").src=source;
window.castReceiverManager.setApplicationState('image source changed');
};
</script>
</body>

Below is the modified MainActivity.java code. Don't forget to modify the app_id in string.xml once your receiver application is registered.
2 notes:
The sent messages are wrapped in a JSON object so I can filter out
the text messages.
The ENCODED_IMAGE_STRING variable isn't defined in this
example, you'll have to find an image and convert it to a base64 string yourself.

Since on Chromecast your application is running inside a web browser, you need to have an <img/> tag show the image. The src attribute of that tag should point to the image that you want to see and it has to be a url, so if your image is residing on your phone's local storage, you need to start a small web server in your mobile application to serve that image and communicate with the receiver what url it should point at (which would be the url at which your server is serving that image). these are all doable and you can use the CastCompanionLibrary, if you want, to communicate with your custom receiver; simply use the DataCastManager class instead of VideoCastManager.

May be my answer will be helpful for other developers, because I also did'nt found good solution and done it by myself.
For showing image via Google Cast on your device screen from your app you can create and start simply web server from your app which will process http requests with selected image name or id in URL.
Example:
public class MyWebServer {
private Activity activity;
private static ServerSocket httpServerSocket;
private static boolean isWebServerSunning;
public static final String drawableDelimiter = "pic-"
public MyWebServer(Activity activity) {
this.activity = activity;
}
public void stopWebServer() {
isWebServerSunning = false;
try {
if (httpServerSocket != null) {
httpServerSocket.close();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void startWebServer() {
isWebServerSunning = true;
Thread webServerThread = new Thread(() -> {
Socket socket;
HttpResponseThread httpResponseThread;
try {
httpServerSocket = new ServerSocket(5050);
while (isWebServerSunning) {
socket = httpServerSocket.accept();
httpResponseThread = new HttpResponseThread(socket);
httpResponseThread.start();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
});
webServerThread.start();
}
private class HttpResponseThread extends Thread {
Socket clientSocket;
HttpResponseThread(Socket socket) {
this.clientSocket = socket;
}
#Override
public void run() {
try (BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
OutputStream outputStream = clientSocket.getOutputStream();
) {
String input = bufferedReader.readLine();
if (input != null && !input.isEmpty() && input.contains("/") && input.contains(" ")) {
if (input.contains(drawableDelimiter)) {
String imageId = input.substring(input.indexOf("/") + 1, input.lastIndexOf(" ")).trim().split(drawableDelimiter)[1];
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(activity.getResources(), Integer.parseInt(imageId));
if (bitmap != null) {
ByteArrayOutputStream bitmapBytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, bitmapBytes);
outputStream.write("HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n".getBytes());
outputStream.write("Server: Apache/0.8.4\r\n".getBytes());
outputStream.write(("Content-Length: " + bitmapBytes.toByteArray().length + "\r\n").getBytes());
outputStream.write("\r\n".getBytes());
outputStream.write(bitmapBytes.toByteArray());
}
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
And just start or stop your web server at when Google Cast will be useable or stopped.
MyWebServer myWebServer = new MyWebServer(this); // pass your activity here
myWebServer.startWebServer();
myWebServer.stopWebServer();

back button not calling onPause

I have an activity that displays sensor values and sends them to a synchronous queue, from the onSensorChanged method. I have a timeout on the publish to queue so that the onSensorChanged method does not block, when the queue is blocking. I am then expecting that the onPause method will be called when the back button is pressed, however it is not and the screen just hangs without returning to the previous screen. Any idea why this is happening?
Btw, when the queue does not block (data is removed by the subscriber) then all works as expected, onPause is called when the back button is pressed.
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
TextView tvX = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textViewRemLinAccX);
TextView tvY = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textViewRemLinAccY);
TextView tvZ = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textViewRemLinAccZ);
String x = String.format(format, event.values[0]);
String y = String.format(format, event.values[1]);
String z = String.format(format, event.values[2]);
tvX.setText(x);
tvY.setText(y);
tvZ.setText(z);
try {
if (btConnection.isRunning()) {
Log.i(TAG, "+++ queue values");
queue.offer(constructData(x, y, z), 1, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "+++ err " + e.toString());
}
}

If you are blocking the UI with other operations (when you execute something on the main thread), then the back button will not work, you should do any operation that takes time on a background thread.

This appears to be resolved though I am not quite sure how I did it, so have included the code for others to use. I did a lot of restructuring to ensure that connection resources were cleaned up properly and now the onPause, and onDestroy, methods are called when the back button is pressed.
Fyi, this activity opens a bluetooth connection and sends sensor data to another computer to be used to control a LEGO NXT robot.
