I am developing a Bluetooth chat application. The problem is that when i enable Bluetooth the application enables Bluetooth but causes force close. the next time i launch the same application(with Bluetooth enabled) it works smoothly ! i have searched and only got some information saying that when i start the intent for enable Bluetooth the code proceeds not waiting for the result of Intent
public void run() {
// 1. Check if Bluetooth is Enabled
if (!blue.isEnabled()) {
Intent enable_Bluetooth = new Intent(
BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
startActivityForResult(enable_Bluetooth, 1);
}
// 2. Start Bluetooth Server
try {
Server = blue.listenUsingRfcommWithServiceRecord("dhiraj",
MY_UUID);
first:
Declare the Bluetooth permission(s) in your application manifest file. For example:
<manifest ... >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />
...
</manifest>
Setting up bluetooth:
BluetoothAdapter mBluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
if (mBluetoothAdapter == null) {
// Device does not support Bluetooth
}
Enable bluetooth:
if (!mBluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) {
Intent enableBtIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, REQUEST_ENABLE_BT);
}
Finding devices:
Set<BluetoothDevice> pairedDevices = mBluetoothAdapter.getBondedDevices();
// If there are paired devices
if (pairedDevices.size() > 0) {
// Loop through paired devices
for (BluetoothDevice device : pairedDevices) {
// Add the name and address to an array adapter to show in a ListView
mArrayAdapter.add(device.getName() + "\n" + device.getAddress());
}
}
discovering devices:
// Create a BroadcastReceiver for ACTION_FOUND
private final BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
// When discovery finds a device
if (BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND.equals(action)) {
// Get the BluetoothDevice object from the Intent
BluetoothDevice device =
intent.getParcelableExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE);
// Add the name and address to an array adapter to show in a ListView
mArrayAdapter.add(device.getName() + "\n" + device.getAddress());
}
}
};
// Register the BroadcastReceiver
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND);
registerReceiver(mReceiver, filter); // Don't forget to unregister during onDestroy
Enabling discovery
Intent discoverableIntent = new
Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE);
discoverableIntent.putExtra(BluetoothAdapter.EXTRA_DISCOVERABLE_DURATION, 300);
startActivity(discoverableIntent);
