Q: Can list of Bluetooth devices in range be determined?

Post by standalonescript » 13 Sep 2013 03:51

Can the list of Bluetooth devices "in range" be determined (without connecting/attempting to connect to them)?

I don't believe this is supported in automagic (even using global variables).

Here is a stack overflow that supposedly is a way to do so in android (second post) but was not verified (by the OP nor me).

I may try to roll my own app to do this or use ruboto if possible to poll every half-hour and create a file that automagic can parse.

P.s. sorry if this is in the wrong place.

There is no built-in trigger available to detect when Android terminates a process.

I don't understand how knowing when a process has ended would help determine the list of available Bluetooth devices. Can you explain?
