How to detect message that i send from one device to another with bluetoth connect | by Ted James | May, 2024

I want to send message from one device to another, i send and Toast show my message. I try to do:

if(message.equals("mute")){
if(IsAudioOn){
IsAudioOn = false;
amanager.setStreamMute(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, false); // for unmute

}else{
IsAudioOn = true;
amanager.setStreamMute(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, true); //for mute
}

for making instructions for device what he should do when he gets a typical message, but this didn’t work,

Here are some of my methods from one device from which I try to control another:

public void sendMessage(String message) {
if (bBluetooth) {
bt.send(message, true);
} else {
wiFiP2pService.sendData(message);
}
}

This works, I send the string MESSAGE and it shows on another device in TOAST method.

Here is my dataReceiver is on second device

bt.setOnDataReceivedListener(new BluetoothSPP.OnDataReceivedListener() {
public void onDataReceived(byte[] data, String message) {
showToastMessage(message, 300);
AudioManager amanager=(AudioManager)getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
if(message.equals("MUTE")){
if(IsAudioOn){
IsAudioOn = false;
amanager.setStreamMute(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, false); // for unmute

}else{
IsAudioOn = true;
amanager.setStreamMute(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, true); //for mute
}
}else if(message.equals("VOLUME DOWN")){
amanager.setStreamVolume(
AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC,
amanager.getStreamMaxVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC),
0);
}
}
});

as u see I try to detect like

message.equals("string")

but this does not work, Any help appreciated..

As per doc, setStreamMute

This method should only be used by applications that replace the platform-wide management of audio settings or the main telephony application.

If you need to mute all sound on device, please take a look on possible solutions for that problem.
