Bluetooth Chat doesn't seem to work on Hero

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, I am using the latest svn version of backport-android-bluetooth and
just deployed it to my Hero (with rom HTC Generic 2.73.405.66 not rooted).

When I launch the bluetooth application it runs, but when I try to detect
devices I get null for every names.

I attached the logcat containing what happened starting from the run of the
app and I made my phone discoverable and after I tried to discover phones.

I didn't try yet to pair it with another phone and try exchanging message,
but I will in the next hour :)

Ok, I did some tests and phones don't pair with the app.

When they are paired before from settings, bluetooth chat just crashes.

This is the error:

"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 00:24:BA:B2:EF:3C,<unknown>,6816268 is not 
a"

It is that line... the thing is that a device is initiated only with MAC 
address... so change the lines 366-367 in the BluetoothAdapter.java to:

String address = bonds[i];
address=address.substring(0, address.indexOf(','));
devices.add(new BluetoothDevice(address));

... Then you have to rebuilt the lib. but I don't know how to do this so I 
haven't tested it (is should work though)

Yes this is the problem. My FIx:
String[] toks = bonds[i].split(",");
String address = toks[0];
devices.add(new BluetoothDevice(address));

However, next problem is:

V/BluetoothDeviceService.cpp(   81): getRemoteNameNative
I/bluetooth_common.cpp(   81): com.ti.btips, /com/ti/btips, com.ti.btips.bmg, 
GetRemoteDeviceName
I/MyApp  (12739): Exception in getBondedDevices java.lang.NullPointerException

Any suggestions?
