how to scan vor available bluetooth devices in range in android?

Question

hi there!

i need to get a list of available bluetooth devices in the area using google android 2.1

thing is, i don't just need a list of those devices, i need some unique id for each device found and i need an indicator, how "good" the signal is received (like the "level" in android.wifi.ScanResult)... how do i do that?

Answer 1

Here there is a complete example to discover devices.

You could use the MAC address as unique ID.

About signal strenght i think you should use RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator).
