Data sent from Android to HC-05 Bluetooth Arduino not showing

I am creating an Android app that allows me to control a device connected to Arduino using Bluetooth, with Android 4.4.2, Arduino Uno and HC-05 Module.
Right now I'm finding serious difficulties to print data in the Arduino serial (in order to verify if it's really working). I tried everything I have found in this or other forums related to this topic.
For the moment, I have been able to detect the devices, pair with them and create the Socket and the OutputStream, but for some reason the data doesn't show up.
The code is 2 basic Activities and their layouts (Android) and the Arduino code:
Image of how it shows the available devices.
Image of how now that device is paired with our Android Device.
GetPaired.java:
Basically gets the available devices, show them in a custom ListView, allows you to pair/unpair with them and after you get the device paired, you go to the ConnectionControl activity.

The ConnectionControl Activity:
Receives an intent with a BluetoothDevice Object, as the device we are going to connect with. Creates the BluetoothSocket, the connection Thread the OutputStream.

}
}
public void onON(View view){

}
public void onOFF(View view){

}
}
And the Arduino code:
In the Arduino hardware I connected the 5V and already entered in AT mode to the Bluetooth to change its name before.
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial mySerial(10, 11); // RX, TX
void setup() {
// Open serial communications and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
}
// set the data rate for the SoftwareSerial port
mySerial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() { // run over and over
if (mySerial.available()) {
Serial.write(mySerial.read());
}
if (Serial.available()) {
mySerial.write(Serial.read());
}
}
What can I try next?

UPDATE:
If you have to use this code for a project feel free to use it.
I have managed to solve the issue, the Arduino code was the problem, this is the working code:
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial BTserial(11, 10); // RX | TX
char c = ' ';
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Arduino is ready");
// HC-05 default serial speed for commincation mode is 9600
BTserial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{
if (BTserial.available())
{
c = BTserial.read();
Serial.write(c);
}
// Keep reading from Arduino Serial Monitor and send to HC-05
if (Serial.available())
{
c = Serial.read();
BTserial.write(c);
}
}

My problem is my client side code stuck when it goes to socket.receive() method. I started my mobile data at both sides. Started Hotspot at server side and connected to it from client.

My problem is my client side code stuck when it goes to socket.receive() method
It blocks.
InetAddress group = InetAddress.getByName("224.0.0.3");
The problem is here. Multicast addresses in the range 224.0.0.0 to 224.0.0.255 are reserved for low-level multicast support operations. Use an address in the range 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255, but see also RFC 2365.
sock.setBroadcast(true);
Unnecessary. Remove. You aren't broadcasting, you are multicasting.
byte []b3=new byte[1024];
DatagramPacket packet;
b3=msg.getBytes();
You don't need to initialize b3 when you reassign it two lines later.
finally
{
sock.close();
}
You are closing the socket inside the while (true) loop. So it will send one multicast and then exit with a 'socket closed' exception, which you haven't reported here. Remove.
String s = new String(packet.getData());
That should be new String(packet.getData(), packet.getOffset(), packet.getLength().

try to set able this enable socket.setBroadcast(true);
byte[] buf = new byte[256];
packet = new DatagramPacket(buf, buf.length);
socket.setBroadcast(true);
socket.receive(packet);

Unable to connect to the bluetooth Module

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?

Sending Character Through Bluetooth

I'm not really sure what the best way to word this is, but basically I want to be able to send a character from an Android phone to a bluetooth module plugged into an Arduino. I've got no problems with the Arduino end, but I'm having trouble with the Android bit.
So far all I have is a click event on an image, and when I click that image I want to send a character, for example, 1.
Here's my current code:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
public class ToggleLightsActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
public void imageClick(View view)
{
}
}
I should point out I am a beginner to Android, as you might have guessed!
Thanks in advance.

thr=e thing which is commented in the try block above. create a method and use those lines forwriteSuccess
