BluetoothProfileManager

public final class BluetoothProfileManager
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ com.google.android.things.bluetooth.BluetoothProfileManager

Allows applications to enable/disable Bluetooth profiles on the system.

Usage of this API triggers a restart of the Bluetooth stack, and the changes take effect only after all the Bluetooth services have been restarted.

Usage: 

 BluetoothProfileManager profileManager = BluetoothProfileManager.getInstance();

 List enabledProfiles = profileManager.getEnabledProfiles();
 String enabled = "";
 for (Integer profile : enabledProfiles) {
   enabled += ("" + profile + ", ");
 }
 Log.d(TAG, "Enabled Profiles - " + enabled);

 Log.d(TAG, "Enabling A2dp source mode.");
 List toEnable = Arrays.asList(BluetoothProfile.A2DP);
 List toDisable =
   Arrays.asList(BluetoothProfile.A2DP_SINK, BluetoothProfile.AVRCP_CONTROLLER);
 profileManager.enableAndDisableProfiles(toEnable, toDisable);

Certain configurations of profiles are invalid and behave differently.

  • A2DP and A2DP_SINK profiles cannot be enabled together. Doing so will throw an IllegalArgumentException.
  • GATT profile cannot be disabled. It is active if Bluetooth is ON.
  • GATT_SERVER profile cannot be controlled using these APIs. Using them will have no effect. It is always active in conjunction with GATT.

Public methods

disableProfiles

boolean disableProfiles (List<Integer> toDisable)

Disables the specified Bluetooth profiles.

This method disables the specified profiles from the existing set of enabled profiles. Profiles not specified in the parameters will remain unaffected.

Parameters
toDisable List: List of BluetoothProfile to disable.
Returns
boolean False if unable to disable profile or if profile is already disabled. True otherwise.
Throws
IllegalStateException when the connection to the server has died.
IllegalArgumentException when profiles configuration is invalid.

enableAndDisableProfiles

boolean enableAndDisableProfiles (List<Integer> toEnable, 
                List<Integer> toDisable)

Enables/Disables the specified Bluetooth profiles.

This method enables/disables the specified profiles on the device. Profiles not specified in the parameters will remain unaffected.

Parameters
toEnable List: List of BluetoothProfile to enable.
toDisable List: List of BluetoothProfile to disable.
Returns
boolean False if unable to modify profile state or if no change is needed. True otherwise.
Throws
IllegalStateException when the connection to the server has died.
IllegalArgumentException when profiles configuration is invalid.

enableProfiles

boolean enableProfiles (List<Integer> toEnable)

Enables the specified Bluetooth profiles.

This method enables the specified profiles in addition to the already enabled profiles. Profiles not specified in the parameters will remain unaffected.

Parameters
toEnable List: List of BluetoothProfile to enable.
Returns
boolean False if unable to enable profile or if profile is already enabled. True otherwise.
Throws
IllegalStateException when the connection to the server has died.
IllegalArgumentException when profiles configuration is invalid.

getEnabledProfiles

List<Integer> getEnabledProfiles ()

Fetch the list of Bluetooth Profiles which are currently enabled in the system.

Returns
List<Integer>

Throws
IllegalStateException when the connection to the server has died.

getInstance

BluetoothProfileManager getInstance ()

Fetch an instance of BluetoothProfileManager

Returns
BluetoothProfileManager

Throws
IllegalStateException if a connection cannot be established to the back-end service.

setEnabledProfiles

boolean setEnabledProfiles (List<Integer> profiles)

Sets the specified profiles to be enabled and disables all the other profiles.

This method will remove all previous state and only enable the specified profiles.

Parameters
profiles List: List of BluetoothProfile to be enabled.
Returns
boolean

Throws
