    <p>I'm programming a simple Bluetooth client to send and receive text messages throught RFCOMM as a serial port. I had a look at the Android SDK tutorials and did it in the same way: an Activity which calls a thread to make the connection, and once done, another thread to take care of msg reception.</p> <p>I'm trying to connect to a Parallax EasyBluetooth. Connection works all right between computer and EasyBT, and also between a Java based mobile and the EasyBT. So the problem must be at the code or, I hope not, at the Android mobile bluetooth chip. Anyway it gets on and off, and detects other devices when scanning, so I guess problem is just my coding.</p> <p>The problem is that the code gets stuck at the connect() method. So let's see if anyone knows why.</p> <p>The XML for the activity is simple:</p> <pre><code> &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" &gt; &lt;TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/hello" /&gt; &lt;Button android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/boton" android:id="@+id/boton_enviar" /&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>Of course I have added the bluetooth permissions to the Manifiest:</p> <pre><code>&lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" /&gt; &lt;uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>And the code is the following:</p> <pre><code>package uniovi.PFC; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStream; import java.io.OutputStream; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map; import java.util.Set; import java.util.UUID; import android.app.Activity; import android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter; import android.bluetooth.BluetoothDevice; import android.bluetooth.BluetoothSocket; import android.content.Intent; import android.os.Bundle; import android.os.Handler; import android.util.Log; import android.view.View; import android.view.View.OnClickListener; import android.widget.ArrayAdapter; import android.widget.Button; public class PruebaBTActivity extends Activity { private String TAG = "pruebaBT"; private BluetoothAdapter mBluetoothAdapter; private Map&lt;String, BluetoothDevice&gt; mArrayAdapter; private ConnectedThread hiloEscuchas; private ConnectThread hiloConectando; private Handler mHandler; private Button botonEnviar; private static final UUID MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB"); private static final int REQUEST_ENABLE_BT = 1; private static final int MESSAGE_READ = 1; private byte bytes_enviar[]; private String cmd; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); Log.d(TAG, "On create abriendo"); mArrayAdapter = new HashMap&lt;String, BluetoothDevice&gt;(); botonEnviar = (Button)findViewById(R.id.boton_enviar); botonEnviar.setEnabled(false); botonEnviar.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { cmd = "A"; bytes_enviar = cmd.getBytes(); hiloEscuchas.write(bytes_enviar); } }); Log.d(TAG, "On create cerrando"); } @Override public void onResume() { super.onResume(); mBluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter(); if (mBluetoothAdapter == null) { Log.d(TAG, "Device does not support Bluetooth"); } if (!mBluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) { Intent enableBtIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE); startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, REQUEST_ENABLE_BT); } Set&lt;BluetoothDevice&gt; pairedDevices = mBluetoothAdapter.getBondedDevices(); // If there are paired devices if (pairedDevices.size() &gt; 0) { // Loop through paired devices for (BluetoothDevice device : pairedDevices) { // Add the name and address to an array adapter to show in a ListView mArrayAdapter.put(device.getName(), device); } } BluetoothDevice device = mArrayAdapter.get("EasyBT"); hiloConectando = new ConnectThread(device); hiloConectando.run(); //while(hiloEscuchas.isConnected()==false); //botonEnviar.setEnabled(true); } private class ConnectThread extends Thread { private final BluetoothSocket mmSocket; private final BluetoothDevice mmDevice; public ConnectThread(BluetoothDevice device) { // Use a temporary object that is later assigned to mmSocket, // because mmSocket is final BluetoothSocket tmp = null; mmDevice = device; // Get a BluetoothSocket to connect with the given BluetoothDevice try { // MY_UUID is the app's UUID string, also used by the server code tmp = device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(MY_UUID); } catch (IOException e) { } mmSocket = tmp; } public void run() { // Cancel discovery because it will slow down the connection mBluetoothAdapter.cancelDiscovery(); try { // Connect the device through the socket.

Comments explain this, and also shows where it gets stuck.</p> <p>Thanks</p>

    1. COAre you certain the socket is ready? In the constructor for `ConnectThread` you're instantiating `mmSocket`, but you're ignoring any IOExceptions.

    2. COI just took Google's online example and adapted it, there where any IOException there. Where could I learn more about the exceptions thrown by the socket? Anyway, in a normal behaviour, shouldn't it work anyway?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
