Using backport-android-bluetooth on Android 1.6

I'm trying to write an application using Bluetooth on Android 1.6. Since it's not officially supported, I found the backport of android.bluetooth API ( http://code.google.com/p/backport-android-bluetooth ). But when I deploy the sample chat application (modified for backport) LogCat gives me the error below:

My question is, how I can use backport-android-bluetooth on 1.6 and is there any working samples?

Thanks!

I think this backport bluetooth doesn't work, because 1.6 shields off the used api's. It's one of the updates Google did to 1.6: prevent developers to use internal api's and I guess BT is one of them... :(.

According to this issue on the bluetooth backport tracker it should be possible to it on 1.6. Quote: "I run the backport successfully on a HTC Magic (Android 1.6)"

The backport api works on android 1.6. Follow the instructions given on project home page. I tried with bluetooth chat sample app and works fine.

I am using this lib since a long time - It works on some phones, but not on others. It really depends on the underlying Android Build ..
