Android.Bluetooth.BluetoothAdapter.ActionDiscoveryStarted Field
Broadcast Action: The local Bluetooth adapter has started the remote device discovery process.

Syntax

[Android.Runtime.Register("ACTION_DISCOVERY_STARTED")]
public const string ActionDiscoveryStarted

Remarks

Broadcast Action: The local Bluetooth adapter has started the remote device discovery process.

This usually involves an inquiry scan of about 12 seconds, followed by a page scan of each new device to retrieve its Bluetooth name.

Register for BluetoothDevice.ActionFound to be notified as remote Bluetooth devices are found.

Device discovery is a heavyweight procedure. New connections to remote Bluetooth devices should not be attempted while discovery is in progress, and existing connections will experience limited bandwidth and high latency. Use BluetoothAdapter.CancelDiscovery to cancel an ongoing discovery.

Requires NoType:android/Manifest$permission;Href=../../../reference/android/Manifest.permission.html#BLUETOOTH to receive.
