Bluetooth example on Android using Python / Pyjnius

bluetooth.py

'''
Bluetooth/Pyjnius example
=========================

This was used to send some bytes to an arduino via bluetooth.
The app must have BLUETOOTH and BLUETOOTH_ADMIN permissions (well, i didn't
tested without BLUETOOTH_ADMIN, maybe it works.)

Connect your device to your phone, via the bluetooth menu. After the
pairing is done, you'll be able to use it in the app.

Thank you for you.
Your code helped my project.

Thank a lot!
This work for me too

I used the first code and it gives me an error -
line 11
paired_devices = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter().getBondedDevices().toArray()
^
IndentationError: expected an indented block
I'm new to this so help me out. Thanks!

Is there any sample code on using an Arduino through USB OTG using pyserial or pyjnius?

Sorry!
I have error..... , Can you help me... Thanks.
error message:

In order to get this to work, I had to make use of the python-for-android annotations: @run_on_ui_thread. Is this is a new requirement?

Without them, I was getting the error: Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()

    def build(self):
        return Builder.load_string(kv)

I have the same error than #frankchin :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bluetooth.py", line 8, in
BluetoothAdapter = autoclass('android.bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter')
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/jnius/reflect.py", line 154, in autoclass

File "jnius_export_func.pxi", line 23, in jnius.find_javaclass (jnius/jnius.c:12117)
jnius.JavaException: Class not found 'android/bluetooth/BluetoothAdapter'

could you help me please? and thanks in advance!!

I am trying to read from the socket stream.
So when I give
data = self.recv_stream.read() after sending a command, I was being kicked out of the app?

I am newbie... Can anyone point me to the right direction?

Thanks

@frankchih Did you get a solution to the error?

I have one .py file, I want to send one character as a parameter through that Python function from Android application. that Python function will send the signal through Bluetooth to arduino.
Please help me out how can i call the .py function in Android application.

Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("python run.py " + "A");
its showing error :
ProcessManager: waitpid on failed exec failed: No child processes
W/System.err: Error running exec(). Command: Working Directory: null Environment: null

i compile bluetooth_kivy for android apk with buildozer. But my app can't run. how can fix it? My app folder includes two file: buildozer.spec and main.py(bluetooth_kivy is renamed). Do i need java file for bluetooth.

Sorry!
I have error..... , Can you help me... Thanks.

This is still relevant so...

To run this use buildozer.

@andersonms1, for this kind of error message "jnius.JavaException: Class not found xxxxxxxxx", You have to run inside android phone instead of windows laptop.

How do I install the jnius module on Pydroid? Thank you.
