I cannot get this to work and it is driving me crazy. I have tried soooo many apps and source codes. None will work. Please help. I am kind of a newb. But not totally.

Thanks

I am writing an app to change screens when detecting a iBeacon. I have the rest of the app working, just can't get the iBeacon detection working. Anyone that can help I would appreciate it.

I have tried many many different source codes, none will work. Some error "BLE not supported", others crash. Don't know what to do.

Thanks

Hi xtrude64

use other Android device that supported BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy).

"iBeacon" use Bluetooth Low Energy a.k.a. BLE technology. If you use Android device BLE not supported, any app doesn't work about iBeacon.

I am using the emulator in Android Studio 2.3 and have used multiple device profiles that I know support BLE. Does BLE not work in emulator?

Thank you for answering.

I uninstalled and reinstalled, now it works, yay!!! However, I have 3 iBeacons and only one line item shows up. But it does look like maybe they are all being seen as that first line seems to be changing, I just can't read the changes because the UID's are all the same and the number goes all the way across.

Looking for how to make it multi line. Thanks so much for helping!

Everything working great, thanks again! I guess I should have known the BLE wouldn't work in emulator lol

How can I pause and restart the beacon detection? There is a memory leak I presume is related to constant beacon scanning.

You should create another issue for different topic.

OK, sorry
