Android Bluetooth Chat Application connecting to Bluegiga WT-12

I wanted to employ Bluetooth connectivity for which we used Bluetooth Chat open source code but it did not work on my Eclipse so after a few changes made, it worked correctly. Now i can do chat with a Bluegiga WT - 12 , connected to a PC via serial cable. Bluegiga WT-12 is connected with BG Term (just like Hyperterminal).

Just wanted to share ! I hope it will be of some help to developers making same application. BlueChat is same as available.

Here is BluetoothChatService code edited:

The res folder can be copied as it is. And The code will work.

That's the answer!

I have replaced this line

private static final UUID MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("fa87c0d0-afac-11de-8a39-0800200c9a66");

with

private static final UUID MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB");

and now IT WORKS!!!

Thanks so much!
