Programmatically bonding to BLE device on Android

问题:

I'm writing an Android application in which I'd like to programmatically bond to a custom BLE device. I have the manual bonding working in which the user enters the PIN using the standard Android Bluetooth pairing dialog, but I have not been able to find any information on how to automatically bond a BLE device programatically, without user intervention. Is that possible? If so, what's the process?

I was able to make this work MOST OF THE TIME by registering a BroadcastReceiver to receive the BluetoothDevice.ACTION_BOND_STATE_CHANGED intent and then calling BluetoothDevice.setPin after receiving the BluetoothDevice.BOND_BONDING message. As is the case with most BLE things in Android, this seems to act slightly differently depending on the device and Android version. Unfortunately, I can't seem to stop Android from also receiving the bluetooth intent, so the PIN entry screen still pops up for a second before the bonding is completed.

   private final BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver()
   {
       @Override
       public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
       {
           final String action = intent.getAction();
           Logger("Broadcast Receiver:" + action);

           if (action.equals(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_BOND_STATE_CHANGED))
           {
               final int state = intent.getIntExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_BOND_STATE, BluetoothDevice.ERROR);

               if(state == BluetoothDevice.BOND_BONDING)
               {
                   Logger("Bonding...");
                    if (mDevice != null) {
                        mDevice.setPin(BONDING_CODE.getBytes());
                        Logger("Setting bonding code = " + BONDING_CODE);
                    }
               }
               else if(state == BluetoothDevice.BOND_BONDED)
               {
                   Logger("Bonded!!!");
                   mOwner.unregisterReceiver(mReceiver);
               }
               else if(state == BluetoothDevice.BOND_NONE)
               {
                   Logger("Not Bonded");
               }
           }
       }
   };

I managed to do this - see my answer here.

The TL;DR is: forget about ACTION_BOND_STATE_CHANGED; you don't need it. Instead listen to ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST, and set the priority high. In the broadcast receiver when you get ACTION_PAIRING_REQUEST, call setPin() with your PIN and then abortBroadcast() to prevent the system showing the notification.

All you can do to avoid user interaction is to force Just Works pairing. To do that, program the peripheral to accept pairing with NoInputNoOutput IO Capability.
