For whatever reason my phone will not allow me to connect with already paired devices. I have tried both Taifun’s BT ext (paid). and the one built in to AI2. I am not complaining about either of them, it’s my phone.
A workaround might be to have a button on my page to minimise my app and show the phone’s settings page to allow the user to change BT devices. Then after the user picking a device return to my app. This is possible manually, but is it possible programatically in AI2?
You could use the Activitystarter and set Action to “android.settings.BLUETOOTH_SETTINGS”
It will bring the user to this screen:
Yep. I can use the extention to turn BT on/off but cannot connect. Your suggestion has given me an idea that I will try. Thanks for your help.
Hi Ken,
Your suggestion worked. From the settings when backpressed, it returned to my App. Perfect. But somehow another problem has occured. The idea for my app is when a button is pressed a sound will play thru a bluetooth speaker. All is good except the volume is muted (quite low). I need the speaker to blare it out. I can play a sound from my laptop to the speaker and it is loud, but thru the app, muted. I set the player volume to 100, but that made no difference. Any ideas?
This new question should be a new topic.
That being said, the Player Volume doesn’t change the devices volume.
To set that, check out this extension:
