I'm developing a program in which, from an Android Phone, I have to connect as a client to a Bluetooth medical sensor. I'm using the official Bluetooth API and no problem during connection (SPP profile), but when I end the socket, the sensor is still connected to my phone (although I have close the connection).
Are there any way to make a Bluetooth disconnection? I think there is an intent called ACTION_ACL_CONNECTED, which does that. Can anyone explain me how to use this?
Thanks in advance.
EDITED: Here is the code, if anyone needs additional info, it's a Nonin 4100 medical sensor.
Set<BluetoothDevice> pairedDevices = Activa.myBluetoothAdapter.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
String name = device.getName();
if (name.contains("Nonin")) {
try {
found = true;
// socket = device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(UUID.fromString("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB"));
// handler.sendEmptyMessage(5);
// Activa.myBluetoothAdapter.cancelDiscovery();
// socket.connect();
BluetoothDevice hxm = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter().getRemoteDevice(device.getAddress());
Method m;
try {
m = hxm.getClass().getMethod("createRfcommSocket", new Class[]{int.class});
socket = (BluetoothSocket)m.invoke(hxm, Integer.valueOf(1));
handler.sendEmptyMessage(5);
socket.connect();
} catch (Exception e) {
handler.sendEmptyMessage(7);
e.printStackTrace();
break;
}
handler.sendEmptyMessage(6);
InputStream in = socket.getInputStream();
OutputStream out = socket.getOutputStream();
byte[] retrieve = { 0x44, 0x31};
out.write(retrieve);
byte [] ack = new byte [1];
in.read(ack);
if (ack[0] == 0x15) {
cancelMeasurement();
return;
}
byte [] data = new byte [3];
long timeStart = System.currentTimeMillis();
this.timePassed = System.currentTimeMillis() - timeStart;
while ((this.timePassed < (this.time))&&(this.finished)) {
try {
in.read(data);
processData(data);
Thread.sleep(1000);
this.timePassed = System.currentTimeMillis() - timeStart;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
in.close();
out.close();
socket.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
}
Please remember to close your Input/output streams first, then close the socket.
By closing the streams, you kick off the disconnect process. After you close the socket, the connection should be fully broken down.
If you close the socket before the streams, you may be bypassing certain shutdown steps, such as the (proper) closing of the physical layer connection.
Here's the method I use when its time to breakdown the connection.
