[Q] connect to bluetooth keyboard from android application problems

I wrote a simple application to connect to a bluetooth mini keyboard but am having trouble with the BluetoothDevice.connect() call.
it gives discovery service failed. I have no problem using the bluetooth pairing and connect from the bluetooth settings menu. The same code works with a bluesnap serial to bluetooth device.
Am I missing something obvious?
I'm on galaxy tab froyo.
The code is:

so it is right that not all bluetooth keyboard might work properly with any kind of android handheld....as yesterday i just read it in one of bluetooth keyboard

Thread crash on start itself

I am trying to create a thread in an android application to keep checking my firebase database to check if an otp value has been put in the child value of a node. But it keeps crashing as soon as I start the application. This is my code so far.
//Thread check otp
Thread t = new Thread() {
@override
public void run() {
while(!isInterrupted()) {
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
@override
public void run() {
//check OTP if present on database
FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("Keys")
.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
@override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
for (DataSnapshot snapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
Subjects keys = snapshot.getValue(Subjects.class);
//System.out.println(user.email);
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), markAttendance.class);
i.putExtra("otp",keys.otpcode);
i.putExtra("subid", keys.subjectId);
finish();
startActivity(i);
}
}
@override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
}
});
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
};
t.start();
Any help is much appreciated. Thnx in advance

To keep checking my firebase database to check if an otp value has been put
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You don't need to create a background thread to do that, firebase listeners (and almost all operations, if not all of them) already run in a separated thread. You can safely register your ValueEventListener somewhere and let it there.
PS. You didn't post the logcat nor the structure of your database, so I can not help much about the crash.

Starting using adb logcat to see why your app is crashing. If I had to start a thread, I would create an async background task instead
Code:
AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> task = new AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void>() {
@Override
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
while(!isInterrupted()) {
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
//check OTP if present on database
FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("Keys")
.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
for (DataSnapshot snapshot : dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
Subjects keys = snapshot.getValue(Subjects.class);
//System.out.println(user.email);
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), markAttendance.class);
i.putExtra("otp",keys.otpcode);
i.putExtra("subid", keys.subjectId);
finish();
startActivity(i);
}
}
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
}
});
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
}
};
task.execute();

My countdown timers don't work smooth.

Hello everyone i try to get commands from txt file and I want to run these commands in order for a certain period of time.I can get the commands from the txt file correctly but when I want to do these commands using a countdown timer for a certain period of time, there is a problem.The problem is that I do the first command in the time that I want, but it does not execute the next commands.
My txt file:
Ileri,5,1 /n -->this command work well.mp.start() method works for 5 seconds.Commands under this command do not work.
Sol,10,1 /n -->10 is operation time 1 is The number of repetitions.
Sag,5,1 /n
Geri,10,1 /n

Download and parse xml file

Hello, I am learning to program in android and I have the following project. I need to download two XML files from the internet, these files correspond to fuel prices and the location of gas stations. The location and price come in different files, to join these files I need to identify the id of the service station and create a new file with the location and price of the fuel of each station. I am learning how to perform each of these steps. In the code that I add below I want to download a file, save it in memory and display it in TextView. The code does not work correctly, I manage to download the file but I cannot save it in memory to later show it in the Textview. The code downloads the data in the / data / folder, in order to verify that the connection is made and the data is downloaded. How can I download a file and save it in memory to later parse the XML?

How can I parse an xml file from external folder in android studio?

Hi,
I have the following code but it doesn't work. When I work with the assets folder (InputStream is=getAssets().open("places.xml") I have no problem.
Thanks for help me.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private TextView txt;
@override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt);
parseXML();
Log.e("Mensaje:","onCreate");
}
private void parseXML() {
File file = null;
file = new File("/sdcard/Download/places.xml");
if(file.exists()){
Log.e("Message:", "File exists.");
}else {
Log.e("Message:", "File does NOT exists.");
}
try {
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);
XmlPullParserFactory parserFactory;
parserFactory = XmlPullParserFactory.newInstance();
XmlPullParser parser = parserFactory.newPullParser();
Log.e("Inside:","TRY");
