ListPicker Issues for Bluetooth Connection

[Karina Garcia]

Hello!!

My application isn't registering that there is a Bluetooth Connection between my application and the PIC18F4550. It shows that my device is paired on my phone but not within the app. 

When I select my listpicker to try to establish the connection within the app, there are no available devices to select.

Please help!!

How do I fix this issue?

remove "not" in the second "if" and use "else" in the first "if" instead. 

and try BluetoothServer

So I edited the app as directed above and I still have issues with listpicker.

 I made two versions of this application the Client Version and the Server Version. With the client version I changed the if else statement as directed and list picker still remains empty. In the server version I realized I need to use the client version because I'm connecting with the HC-06 as my device. Because I'm trying to make this pairable for users it would be better for the Device to be open to receiving a connection  while the mobile app lets you make the connection.

In your app you must connect to the Bluetooth device first, before you can communicate with it. Pairing is not enough. And your phone is usually a client, not a server. Look for examples under Arduino and Bluetooth in the FAQ: https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!category-topic/mitappinventortest/2cd6Uz__xA0

I added a Bluetooth Enabled check to the code. It now registers that bluetooth is on for my Galaxy S7 but it still doesn't show any available devices for pairing on listpicker.

So I edited my code based on an example online and it still only has a blank listpicker menu. My device is already paired with my phone seperately so it should show up on the list picker menu. What should I change to make those options visible?

I googled for PIC18F4550 and found nothing about Bluetooth. Instead this chip has built-in USB support. So please enlighten me what your setup is and what level of Bluetooth you are using.
For example, it may be that you are using a BT low energy shield and you would need the BLE extension in that case.
