This is a simple and powerful bluetooth app.Using this you can turn_on bluetooth,start discoverable with a simple touch,even turn_off your bluetooth.This will not work on emulator since bluetooth support is not added.
if (mBluetoothAdapter == null) {
out.append("device not supported"); this conditions checks for bluetooth device.If no hardware devices are founding in the device . It displays device not found [Note:This especially happens in android emulator, because there is no support for bluetooth hardware in android emulator]. if (!mBluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()) { when button turn_on is clicked this method will request the bluetooth adapter to enable bluetooth then the activity gets started .
if (!mBluetoothAdapter.isDiscovering()) {
Context context = getApplicationContext();This returns context for the entire application. We can also use this instead of the current Activity context. If user needs a context tied to the life cycle of the entire application,not just for the current activity.
context.Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE);
startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, REQUEST_DISCOVERABLE_BT); This method instantiate bluetooth discover able .We can also set the time for turning on discover able.
mBluetoothAdapter.disable();This method will turn off the bluetooth and exists the application.
