Android Question What if BluetoothAdmin.Enable with SDK-33 and Android-13 not work ?

[Filippo]

Hi,

as already known, from SDK-33 BluetoothAdmin.Enable does not work anymore.
How should we proceed now? Just ask the user with a messagebox to enable the Bleutooth by himself?
Just showing the message "Error enabling Bluetooth adapter" doesn't help much.

Does anyone have a better solution?

Ciao
Filippo

BluetoothAdmin Enable/Disable function stopped working on Android 13

Is there a way to get the BluetoothAdmin Enable/Disable function to work that turns Bluetooth off and on? On Android 12 BTAdmin.Enable returns true and Bluetooth is turned on. On Android 13 BTAdmin.Enable returns false the Bluetooth is not turned on BTAdmin.Disable also returns the same...

It is a new restriction.

That is already clear to me.
The question is: how should we proceed?

if admin.Enable return false all you can do is to show a info to the user that he has to enable it in the settings to use the feature.
Maybe you can point the user to the right settings dialogue in the device. Not sure if there is a specific intent for it though. Try to search the forum about.

Perfekt! Danke Manfred.

How do I activate the Bluetooth Connection Intent?

I want to activate my device's Bluetooth connection using the built-in settings app, Can anyone help me with the code to do this? I'm thinking I need to use StartActivityForResult, but I'm not sure how to use it. Thanks
