Bluetooth scan

[Bluscre]

I am searching for a bluetooth scan for my auto connect script

Or even better a function "connect to any/first paired device in reach"

Hi,

There's no built in action to execute a scan since a scan is very heavyweight and can cause interruptions to already connected BT devices.
You can create your own action with action Script:

Code: Select all

bta=callJavaStaticMethod("android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter", "getDefaultAdapter()");
callJavaMethod(bta, "android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter", "startDiscovery()")

You can handle the found devices with trigger General Broadcast. You can use example Bluetooth Device found as the base configuration but add following line in the Access intent extras field:

Code: Select all

device = getParcelable("android .bluetooth.device.extra.DEVICE");

The device will contain the address of the device which can be used in action Connect/Disconnect Bluetooth Device.

According to the documentation you should not attempt to create a connection as long as the discovery process is running so you might have to stop discovery first with another action Script:

Code: Select all

bta=callJavaStaticMethod("android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter", "getDefaultAdapter()");
callJavaMethod(bta, "android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter", "cancelDiscovery()")

Entry point for documentation can be found here:

I hope this helps.

Martin
