How to Connect Symbian phone to Android phone Use Bluetooth

[luoxuewuchen]

Hi,
Everyone.I'm a rookie in symbian field.I want to connect different type phones use bluetooth.I connect two symbian phones use bluetooth advertiser,bluetooth device search,bluetooth service serach and it works well.But when I'd like to find a service in an android phone,I couldn't find the service in fact it is existed.The problem has trouble me several days.What can I do?Are there some methods to construct a socket use UUID just like Android?

this are android codes to connect two phones

Android 2.0 bluetooth connection

service：
UUID uuid = uuid.fromString(“27648B4D-D854-5674-FA60E4F535E44AF7″); //generate your own UUID at http://www.uuidgenerator.com
BluetoothAdapter adapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
BluetoothServerSocket serverSocket = adapter.listenUsingRfcommWithServiceRecord(“MyBluetoothApp”, uuid);
BluetoothSocket socket = serverSocket.accept(); // blocks until a connection is accepted
serverSocket.close(); // close the listening socket – does not close the connected client socket


client.
UUID uuid = uuid.fromString(“27648B4D-D854-5674-FA60E4F535E44AF7″); // UUID of server socket
BluetoothAdapter adapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
BluetoothDevice device = adapter.getRemoteDevice(“00:11:22:33:44:55″); // BT MAC address of server
BluetoothSocket socket = device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(uuid);
adapter.cancelDiscovery();
adapter.connect(); // blocks until connection established

Hi there,

So far as I have not seen your actual code where you are performing this operation, it is a bit difficult to say where things go wrong - this only from the point of view connecting two "any" bluetooth using devices and searching their services. Basically, what you are attempting to do should work as the communication between bt devices should be pretty much device independent from the protocol side.

Could you perhaps tell more about the steps you have done, devices models you are using, O/S versions - such, to get a perhaps bigger picture, would help. Thanks.

Best Regards,
Marko

I would suggest looking into the old Point-to-point examples found from old SDKs, or check what is available on new ones. There would be nice code in those that would separately implement the device discovery as well as the service discovery, then you could see more easily what happens on Symbian side.

Anyway, no point on asking Android code samples here, as you could see This is Nokia developer discussion board, and we are not making Android devices.

Hi Marko,
Thanks for your attention,I have solved the problem with the help of BluetoothPMPExample codes in nokia forum.The problem is because of I didn't handle the asynchronous service search
in the right way.I have remove myself code into the service discoverer observer,and the program works well.

Best Regards.

Thanks for your help.I have solved the problem with the PMP examples.I'd like ask you a more question.What do you think about the future of symbian? Wish for your reply.Thanks!

You could check the announcements, simple googling would do fine. Nokia have announced that they will continue supporting Symbian at least till end of 2016, and they'll bring new exiting devices to the marked.

I can verify this from my side. Some really cool things coming up.
Best,
