Board doesn't disconnect

AdriGLAdriGL
in Android
Hello,

I'm developing an app and in the onDestroy section I use the tearDown and disconnectAsync methods, but when I rerun the scanner, the board doesn't appear in the list, until i disconnect the bluetooth of my mobile phone.

I've tried with the metawear app, and the problem shows up too.

Is a problem with my mobile phone?
Thanks for the help.

    Is the onDestroy method getting called?
  • AdriGLAdriGL
    Yes. In both apps.

    Sorry for the delay with my answer, I had to stop my development two months.

    It looks like the board doesn't actually disconnect in the onDestroy function.  You can try to reverse the app flow and only leave the activity once the board has disconnected.

    I've tried to update the firmware, but it failed. After that, i wasn't able to connect to the board, so I've removed the battery, and put it on again pressing the button to start the board in metaboot mode. Then I used the metawear app with an Iphone, to reconnect to the board, and finally I could connect it again. After all that, I don't have more problems with the disconnections.

    Why the android app doesn't work for reseting a board from the metaboot mode like Iphone's app?

    It worked for two hours, now I'm having the same problem again, with my app and with metawear app. It doen's disconnect when I close the apps.

    The MetaWear app needs to be updated to use the latest Android SDK, which addressed a bug with connecting to boards in the MetaBoot state.

    Change your app flow as I suggested in my previous post and make sure your device cleanly disconnects before closing the app.  The android devices in the office have no issue with force closing apps.  When such an event occurs, the log shows the GattService disconnecting from the device

    I'll try your suggestion. I've tried with an iphone, and the disconnection works fine, so the problem is not with the app/board, it seems that the problem is my Android phone.

    Thanks for everything.
