I am trying to build an Android application that will interface with an external GPS receiver via the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP). I am using a Nexus One running 2.3.3. I have managed to get my application to receive data from GPS, but I have two issues: 1) When I connect to the device, it only works some of the time. Sometimes the connection just times out, other times it says the device is busy or in use. 2) I haven't been able to figure out how to send data back to the device, which is probably an issue of how I'm using the streams since the incoming stream is a blocking call.
I moved just the relevant code to a new Android application for testing, which is the following:
/res/layout/main.xml (two buttons and a textview)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I found that using the normal "bsocket = device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(MY_UUID);" method would usually result in a "Service discovery failed" message for me, so I also tried the "bsocket = (BluetoothSocket) m.invoke(device, Integer.valueOf(1));" method. That works more often, but likes to time out when I try to connect.
What am I doing wrong here?
Try listening to the incoming data and writing to the device in separate threads. This way you are separating blocking calls.
Did you have a look at Bluetooth chat sample? The sample uses the similar threading technique.
If you are targeting 2.3 and up (which is currently installed on over 50% of android devices out there) you can use the createInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord method to communicate with the device which will surely make it better and more connectable.

I need to transmit some data from my Android app over Bluetooth (to Arduino). I am not reading/receiving anything back from Arduino. For my single threaded needs, I went with an IntentService. After pairing, my code works fine for the first time I connect and send data. I disconnect after sending data without errors. But when I try to connect the second time onwards, I get the following error when I try myBluetoothSocket.connect() :
read failed, socket might closed or timeout, read ret: -1
Only solution is to power off the Arduino device and reconnect (it doesn't help if I force stop the app and try reconnecting).
Note that everything works fine if I spawn 2 threads (one for read and write each) regardless of how many times I connect and send data (thereby proving there is nothing wrong on the Arduino side, "holding back" an old connection).
Here is my Android code :

I have tested on Nexus 5 and Samsung S5 devices (running 5.1 and 5.0 respectively).
When you try to connect the second time you have to create the corresponding socket again.
Also you must consider Arduino is a slow platform, there might be some considerable delay between closing the connection and you being able to open it again.
I am not sure why it works, but this approach finally worked :
private BluetoothSocket createBluetoothSocket(BluetoothDevice bluetoothDevice) throws IOException {
try {
Method m = bluetoothDevice.getClass().getMethod(
"createRfcommSocket", new Class[] { int.class });
btSocket = (BluetoothSocket) m.invoke(bluetoothDevice, 1);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return btSocket;
}
The onDestroy() method is only called when the garbage collector runs. You need call the cleanup() from the onHandleIntent(Intent) as you did before otherwise the socket will remain open indefinitely. Since you left it open, you are unable to connect again.
Android's Bluetooth stack seems to be agnostic of the application lifecycle: the socket will remain open even if you force stop the application. In your current scenario, to close the socket do a disable-enable of the Bluetooth in Settings.

Ps.: I solved the 'R cannot be resolved as a type' error by Cleaning > Building project and then this error appeared.
You have to declare your buttons. Either you declare them in your method
...
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button btnOn = findViewById(R.id.btnOn);
Button btnOff = findViewById(R.id.btnOff);
...
or as a local field
public class Classname {
private Button btnOn;
private Button btnOff;
...
}
Delete gen folder from project and then clean up the whole project also remove your import statement used for r.class used in activity class.
Check your manifest file. You probably forgot to declare something. Usually an Activity.
Eclipse added the "R" import automatically. Unless you are trying to reference resources from another package, it is unnecessary and can be deleted.
For example, if you have a package com.package2 but your manifest has a package name of com.package1 then any class in com.package2 will need:
import com.package1.R;
In your case, it appears to be added automatically. Delete it (don't use "organize imports") and "clean"
Android won't generate R file properly if there is any error in one of the XML files. Maybe the error is in one of them (i.e. the layout file): have you closed all tags? Is there any unsupported attribute?
Try also to organize imports (in windows the shortcut is CTRL+MAIUSC+O [it's a vocal, not zero], in Mac is CMD+MAIUSC+O)
I'm looking for a way to send data between my Android Device and Google Glass that doesn't rely on Cloud API's. Is this supported? I see the Bluetooth connections in the My Glass app, which makes me think it can be done. Is there an example source code that shows how this is done? Or do I have to decompile the MyGlass app to figure it out?
Is there a preferred method for doing this kind of data transfer? Ideally I'd like to transfer data in both directions.
Ok, for the requesters....
EDIT: The code below still works, but I've put it into a git repo for those who are interested...

I'll leave the UI as an exercise to the reader.
There is no preferred method, but if you're looking to do it wirelessly, a Bluetooth 3.0 RFCOMM does work.
If you provide more specifics about the problem you're trying to solve in your question, I'll be able to provide a more specific answer.
Several things I noticed when following this solution (awesome work by the way!)
1) I could only create a bluetooth connection when my phone and the Google Glass were not already paired through the MyGlass app - If you are having trouble establishing a connection, try forgetting that pairing.
2) The Glass API does not support controlling your bluetooth connection through intents using commands like
Intent discoveryIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE);
discoveryIntent.putExtra(BluetoothAdapter.EXTRA_DISCOVERABLE_DURATION, DISCOVER_DURATION);
startActivityForResult(discoveryIntent, REQUEST_BLU);
In order to make the Glass headset discoverable (rather than the phone it is connecting to), I needed to follow solutions similar to those like user4934624 provided at this question and shantanu gave at this question. I invoked a hidden method to access bluetooth functionality directly. Warning: the hidden method seems to have been there for years, but there is no guarantee it will continue to be in future APIs.
// this method allows us to make the device discoverable without alerting the users
// NOTE!!!! This uses a hidden method, so it may be removed from the API in the future
public void makeDiscoverable (){
Class <?> baClass = BluetoothAdapter.class;
Method[] methods = baClass.getDeclaredMethods();
// we want to use method setScanMode(int mode, int duration)
// there are 2 setScanModes
// so select the first setScanMode you see
// test to see which method is the one we want
//for (int i = 0; i<50; i++) {Log.d(Integer.toString(i), methods[i].getName());}
//I had trouble calling the first setScanMode, so I called the second.
// I need to pass in a discoverable time, but it stays discoverable indefinitely
// Thus you must turn off the setScanMode as soon as the connection is established
// I should probably write in some other security stuff to turn it off if connection fails
// maybe a timer running on a different thread?
Method mSetScanMode = methods[38];
try {
mSetScanMode.invoke(myBt, BluetoothAdapter.SCAN_MODE_CONNECTABLE_DISCOVERABLE,300);
//mSetScanMode.invoke(myBt, BluetoothAdapter.SCAN_MODE_CONNECTABLE_DISCOVERABLE);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("discoverable", e.getMessage());
}
}
// this method allows us to make the device not discoverable without alerting the user
// NOTE!!!! This uses a hidden method, so it may be removed from the API in the future
public void makeNotDiscoverable (){
// see notes for makeDiscoverable
Class <?> baClass = BluetoothAdapter.class;
Method [] methods = baClass.getDeclaredMethods();
Method mSetScanMode = methods[38];
try {
mSetScanMode.invoke(myBt, BluetoothAdapter.SCAN_MODE_CONNECTABLE,300);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("discoverable", e.getMessage());
}
}
Note that I first ran a test that output the names of all the methods in the class I mirrored; that allowed me to narrow my search for which method I wanted to use.
The JoeGlass app for android claims to be a replacement for MyGlass. It will talk to your glass directly, using a bluetooth connection. I have not tried yet it but it is open source (github), so if it works, you are good.
My book Beginning Google Glass Development has a full chapter on this topic, with fully working example code on using Bluetooth and socket to transfer data between Glass and Android (or iOS) devices.
The book is available at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Google-Glass-Development-Jeff/dp/1430267887
and the source code is available for download at http://www.apress.com/downloadable/download/sample/sample_id/1562/
There are two different instances of my program not being about to connect to a BluetoothServerSocket.
One of the instances has only 1 UUID generated randomly before it initiates scan mode with SCAN_MODE_CONNECTABLE_DISCOVERABLE and before using the same generated UUID to create a BluetoothServerSocket for listening. The other intance generates a random UUID just before a BluetoothDevice tries to connect with the UUID just generated.
Each of the instances cannot complete the Bluetooth connection. Throughout the entire program, I put many Logs just to try and see why it wouldn't be able to connect.
Below is the code for the first instance. (Generate 1 random UUID at the launch of the app.) If anyone likes to download my Eclipse project just to take a look, here's the link of the project from MediaFire. As for the second instance, uncommenting the C-style comments in the code below will reveal it.
I expected the results would be to have a successful connection between two devices. The successful connection connects a device to a listening socket, by using a generated UUID. The observed results show it is unlikely.
As far as I know, the only way to obtain a UUID is to obtain it from UUID.randomUUID(). If there are other ways, please post a comment below, and I'll check it. But for now, it's not the answer I wanted.
Thanks in advance.

To be able to connect the UUIDs should match.
On the Server side what you are doing is correct i.e generating a ramdom UUID and listening on it,
But the client needs to connect using the same UUID that the server is listening on.
The way to get it will be from your client use the fetchUuidsWithSdp() on the Server BluetoothDevice object and use the obtained UUID to connect to the server.
I know there are other topics about that but in my case I want the Android device to initialize the bluetooth connection as a server. I followed the Documentation and I wrote the server in this way:
private class AcceptThread implements Runnable {
private final BluetoothServerSocket mmServerSocket;
public AcceptThread() {
BluetoothServerSocket tmp = null;
try {
tmp = mBluetooth.listenUsingRfcommWithServiceRecord(
"myService", mUuid);
} catch (IOException e) { }
mmServerSocket = tmp;
}
public void run() {
BluetoothSocket socket = null;
// Keep listening until exception occurs or a socket is returned
while (true) {
try {
System.out.println("SERVER SOCKET LISTENING");
socket = mmServerSocket.accept();
} catch (IOException e) {
break;
}
// If a connection was accepted
if (socket != null) {
System.out.println("SIGNAL RECEIVED");
// Do work to manage the connection (in a separate thread)
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "SIGNAL RECEIVED", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
try {
mmServerSocket.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
break;
}
}
}
/** Will cancel the listening socket, and cause the thread to finish */
public void cancel() {
try {
mmServerSocket.close();
} catch (IOException e) { }
}
}
On the other side I have bluecove API that discover remote devices and services.

}
The client found the device and the service but when retrieve the url from the ServiceRecord to establish the connection it fails. It retrieve an Url in which the channel is wrong and it throws an exception: javax.bluetooth.BluetoothConnectionException: Failed to connect;
How can I solve the problem?
I managed to find some phone ServiceRecords when using:
UUID[] uuidSet = new UUID[1];
uuidSet[0]=new UUID(0x0100);
int[] attrIds = { 0x0100 };
System.out.println("\nSearching for service...");
agent.searchServices(attrIds, uuidSet, remoteDevice, client);
And you will be calling lock.notify() twice after a serviceSearch, remove it in the servicesDiscovered function.
You should also go through the service records and look for the one you are interested in. The URL will state btgoep:// or btspp://
When searching through the for loop use this code to list the service name
for(int i = 0; i < servRecord.length; i++)
{
String url = servRecord[i].getConnectionURL(ServiceRecord.NOAUTHENTICATE_NOENCRYPT, false);
DataElement serviceName = srs[i].getAttributeValue(0x0100);
if (serviceName != null) {
System.out.println("service " + serviceName.getValue() + " found " + url);
} else {
System.out.println("service found " + url);
}
I have the exact problem, it seems like the android api doesn't register the ServiceRecord with the SDP so the Bluecove api can find it.
No matter what UUID I use it will only find the ones my phone register as default, i e Audio gateways and Phonebook OBEX push and such.
EDIT ---
I had the same problem, but realized I had not actually called listenUsingInsecureRFCOMMSocket yet. And then it did not register the service record.
But after that it worked just fine.
