[android-developers] Re: New SDK available - 0.9 SDK beta
Thanks for bringing up an important and related point. We are upset that the bluetooth API has been pulled, but I guess it wouldn't have been much good if it didn't work well or was not 'comprehensive'. Java developers are used to JSR82. J2ME bluetooth apps are currently written to JSR82. If Android is not going to support JSR82 it would be better if their API could at least support the basic things that can be done with JSR82. One example is L2CAP sockets. I see in this new blog entry: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2008/08/some-information-on-apis-removed-in.html that L2CAP socket support from Java is being considered but is not certain, whereas this is supported in JSR82. If the Android Bluetooth API is not only different then JSR82 but also quite inferior in functionality then it will be hard to port JSR82 apps to Android and it will simply make the Android SDK look bad. Please add the bluetooth API in Android 1.1 and please make it possible for us to port our existing JSR82 apps to Android. Thanks, Tom.

It looks like I am not the only one looking for the Bluetooth API. I just decided to give up on Android totally. Without the Bluetooth API it's not even worth taking a look at anymore. I am sorry I even got involved in this to begin with. It's all garbage. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: New SDK available - 0.9 SDK beta
Dear Google representatives, Since Bluetooth seems to be hottest topic for the SDK 0.9, please clarify the level of Bluetooth support in the first Android phone that is coming this fall. Which of the following is correct? 1. The phone does not have Bluetooth hardware. 2. The phone has disabled Bluetooth hardware that can be enabled with a future SDK update. 3. The phone has Bluetooth hardware and supports basic Bluetooth features such as pairing and RFCOMM.

Android will most likely be used on a wide range of devices. These will likely support various sets of Bluetooth profiles, no different than any other phones made today. Many Bluetooth functions would likely work beneath the level of Android applications, no different than with other smartphone operating systems. For example, you don't have to be running some downloaded magical Windows Mobile application to use the handsfree profile -- that's handled solely by hardware and Windows Mobile itself. Given all that, *my* questions are: -- Which Bluetooth profiles will the Android OS handle on its own (given hardware support for said profile)? -- What means do developers have for adding support for other Bluetooth profiles not handled directly by the Android OS? If the answer is not at the application level, only by modifying the core Android OS, would you consider addressing this scenario when writing up the documentation for how the community can contribute back to Android, once it goes open source? -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.1 Published! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Really! :) Well, I'm hoping Android continues to advance as a platform, which will inevitably mean *some* amount of API changes (along with orthogonal API additions). I'd hate for Android to be permanently frozen in the 1.0 state, no matter how slick 1.0 will seem at release time. My grousing wasn't aimed at the changes in the SDK, just that I have a pile of examples to work through. It's the price I chose to pay a few months ago, when I elected to get a book out based on M5.

My application used the GTalkServices API for a communication in multiplayer game. It's a bad news for me that this API is removed from the 0.9 SDK. If i'm continue to develop my application using the M5 SDK, the GTalkService is still supported by android isn't it? Because this API is one of the main features in my application.
