I'm working on a project which receives information from an arduino module and shows it as a chart.
The problem is I have 5 elements ( temperature,humidity, etc... ) and the code I have can only receive one number at a time ( for example : 2838752458 ), as you see in the example the number has 10 digits which comes from Arduino and I want to separate them two by two so each two of them goes for one element.
you might ask why I don't set a handler so I can receive each two number at a separated time but I've tried that and it gives me closed application error because the code I have only can receive one number at a time.

The question : How can i separate the 10 digit number two by two and add them to separated integers so i can pass them to the chart activity? Please give me an example for "1234567890" this number.
here is the output of the chart I created so far.
This seems to do what you want:
import java.util.regex.*;
public class HelloWorld{
public static void main(String []args){
String s = "1234567890";
String pattern = "(\\d\\d)";
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(pattern);
Matcher m = p.matcher(s);
while (m.find()) {
System.out.println(m.group(0));
}
}
}
And output:
12
34
56
78
90
At first make sure the number of your digits (e.g: 1234567890) always divisible by 2. Well, then I have a little hack for you.
First, convert the digits to String and run a for-loop with step 2, then just append the characters at i-th and (i+1)th position into each string producing using the loop into an array. And finally, you can just read item from the array list and send value to your chart just parsing the String into int value to your chart. Here is a sample code I did with Kotlin (but I can convert it into Java code if you need). If you face any issues, feel free to comment.
fun main() {
val digits = 1234567890
val arr = arrayListOf<String>()
for (i in 0 until digits.toString().length step 2) {
val sub = "${digits.toString()[i]}${digits.toString()[i+1]}"
arr.add(sub)
}
println(arr)
}

I want to use data sent from my Arduino to my android. I'm able to connect both together and display the incoming data on my screen. However, when I want to use the incoming data to set comments this doesn't seem to be working. So how can I get the values out of the incoming data?
String address1 = ("98:D3:81:FD:4B:87");

This is how I make the connection, this seems to work properly. Than I use the code underneith to read out the incomming data.
BTHandler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(android.os.Message msg) {
if (msg.what == MESSAGE_READ) {
String readMessage = " ";
try {
readMessage = new String((byte[]) msg.obj, "UTF-8");
inputdata1 = readMessage;
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
TextView input1 = findViewById(R.id.input1);
input1.setText(readMessage);
if (readMessage.equals("X")){
Vibrator vibrator = (Vibrator) getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
vibrator.vibrate(100);
}
}
}
};
Showing the incomming data in the textview works. But it doesn't recognize the X in the incomming data. I can however see that this data is incomming in the textView and i do send this in de arduino code.
if (fsrReadingHeel >= (fsrReadingHeelOld + 800)){
Serial.println("X");
}
I do know the code is processed because when I say if (!(readMessage.equals("X"))){ than it does vibrate.
Arduinos Serial.print sends in ASCII. When you build a String, you can use ASCII like this: Charset.setName("ASCII") instead of just "UTF-8". This works fine for me (with a Arduino Uno and HC-06 Bluetooth module):
readMessage = new String((byte[]) msg.obj, Charset.setName("ASCII"));
The String you created from the byteBuffer should be limited to the size of the actual data - you could use substring(0, sizeOfData) for that.
When I made my App to connect with my Arduino Uno, I had the problem, that depending on the configuration it ignored the first sent Byte in Android, so try to send a longer string and see if you get something, and that you can actually read it correctly.
I am suggesting that you use Serial.print instead of println, because you don't need the line break in sending. It might also change the message you receive on Android.
if (fsrReadingHeel >= (fsrReadingHeelOld + 800)){
Serial.print("X");
}
You could also use Serial.write instead, but you don't need to - have a look at the differences here: https://arduino.stackexchange.com/questions/10088/what-is-the-difference-between-serial-write-and-serial-print-and-when-are-they

I need the temperature to display differently and heartrate to be displayed individually.
You can first try to print the input data (StringBuffer sb) and split String array(String[] separated). You are getting error because the Strings have not split as your expected and only 1 element is present in the array sbprint, this is why when you try to access the second element you get ArrayIndexOutofBound index.
Once you print the Split String Array it would give you an idea where your data is wrong.
I already got displayed data received from microprocesor via bluetooth. It sends me an 8-bit frame with actual Voltage and Temperature state every second.
The issue is the TextView doesn't displaying actual data. When app loads, the data is displayed and stays like that. One method to refresh data is to load app again.
I got handler and ConnectedThread which code I attach.

I have created an android app that (theoretically) sends data to the arduino via bluetooth.
I know that I have managed to get connectivity(the led on the bluetooth module stopped blinking) but the Serial.available() isn't changing when I write some values.
I have tried using different apps (from the play store) - no luck.
The arduino code which suppose to read the data:
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Simple Motor Shield sketch");
}
void loop() {
if(Serial.available()>0){
Serial.println("in");
for(int i=0;i<=2;i++){
joystick[i] = Serial.read();
}
for(int i=0;i<=2;i++){
Serial.println(joystick[i]);
}
delay(1);
}
}
joystick[] is an int array
android code:
bluetoothIn = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(android.os.Message msg) {
if (msg.what == handlerState) { //if message is what we want
String readMessage = (String) msg.obj; // msg.arg1 = bytes from connect thread
recDataString.append(readMessage); //keep appending to string until ~
int endOfLineIndex = recDataString.indexOf("~"); // determine the end-of-line
if (endOfLineIndex > 0) { // make sure there data before ~
String dataInPrint = recDataString.substring(0, endOfLineIndex); // extract string
int dataLength = dataInPrint.length(); //get length of data received
recDataString.delete(0, recDataString.length()); //clear all string data
}

I think you have connected Bluetooth module on serial RX,TX pins of arduino board. this is not the case. You need to use separate serial for communication with Bluetooth. You can use software serial for this purpose otherwise Bluetooth module won't work.
The reason behind this is that the arduino uses same serial pins to communicate with PC (Serial terminal and program load) so it cannot simultaneously send data to Bluetooth.
Have a look at here: https://bellcode.wordpress.com/2012/01/02/android-and-arduino-bluetooth-communication/
Sorry for the unclarity, basically what I wanted to do is to check if I had any data available on the bluetooth serial connection.
So I hoped that Serial.available() would be more than 0 when I sent data.Yet, the Serial.available() and Serial.Read() didn't seemed to work when I sent data.
* I have managed to solve the problem using the program from: http://www.circuitmagic.com/arduino/arduino-and-bluetooth-hc-06-to-control-the-led-with-android-device/ *
I am building an android app that will be able to read values from a load sensor. The load sensor is connected to a LCD to display the values of weight applied to the sensor and an Arduino board. I am simply building this app to get the weight values from the LCD/load sensor. I am using HC-06 Bluetooth module, and I am able to connect/pair with this device successfully. The 'MainActivity' activity has a 'get data' button to read the data from the load sensor but anytime It is pressed the app freezes. I have been told by the author of the following tutorial that I need to write some 'Handler' method. I have made an attempt with no luck.
I've been following this tutorial but I'm stuck on reading data

Not sure if this is much of a problem, since it doesn't look like you're doing a ton of work in your handleMessage(Message msg) method, but your Handler is still being created on the main thread. To use a Handler to process background messages, you'll need to pass it a separate Looper. An easy way to to do this would be to use the HandlerThread class to provide your Looper.
Once you do this, however, you'll need to post results back to your UI thread from your handleMessage(Message msg) since you can't modify UI elements (or use Toasts, see your "write" method) from threads other than the main thread (See Activity.runOnUiThread(Runnable runnable)).
Also, you're still using your "ConnectedThread" object as an object by how you're calling your methods from within your onClickListener...so it's not really doing what you're intending it to do in that regard. To verify this, use Looper.myLooper() == Looper.getMainLooper() to see which thread is currently executing. I'd advise more towards the Handler solution suggested above, and posting Runnables for execution.
Lastly, since you're ConnectedThread runs continously in a while(true) loop without pauses, this could be flooding your handler potentially as well.
