Re: Bluetooth Link Supervision Timeout Issue

Thanks. I wondered about the activity recognition function, but wasn't sure about battery drain or accuracy (and yeah, very creepy, one of the many reasons I don't like Google). I think I tried it out before but don't remember what my findings were, though clearly for some reason I ended up not using it. I guess I'll have to give it another go. Actually, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I decided to use the BT device disconnected instead because that would happen when shutting the car off, whereas using activity would trigger every time I stop at a light/sign/etc. That would not only cause many, many more triggers, but adding a delay to see if I start moving again would make it take too long. Still, it could be useful for the connection process, but I'd have to set it to trigger when I start driving, adding a delay. This really would be all much easier if there could be a trigger for BT device available or, perhaps better/more battery-friendly, a BT availability change event (so instead of having to constantly check if a specific device is available, it could be notified when there's a change in available devices then scan to see if a specific one is there).
As for requesting the bluetooth available condition (and trigger, if possible), what's the best way to do that? I tried mentioning @Martin but that doesn't seem to work here, and I doubt he follows every thread.
