HOWEVER, running the same steps using an emulator (loaded using Xamarin Android Player) and NOT using my phone by tethering, I get into the app. and right, that's what emulators are there for.) (haven't tested the same steps on iOs since I don't own an apple device. So, Settings>Bluetooth>ON and I am sorted. I forgot to turn the Bluetooth on, on my PHONE.
If phone doesn't find any and I am sure there are multiple Bluetooth devices active and discoverable around, I go Ahhhh. App get's installed, I press scan, and Voila! All the available devices found and listed. This app is using Bluetooth, so the first step would be to scan for the available devices and dump them into a ListView.Įverything is sweet and tethering my Android phone to my PC and running the app in Visual Studio to be deployed on my Android phone, works like a treat. Say, I created this cross platform application which have some shared code and two platforms (projects) for Android and iOs. (So I hope I am not missing any super obvious fixes.) Calling it Bazaar since there is no trace of any similar situation on the net.
Working on a cross platform app which will have a Bluetooth connectivity feature I came across this bazaar situation.
