Type Reason Java.IO.IOException on error, for example connection failure
Attempt to connect to a remote device.
This method will block until a connection is made or the connection fails. If this method returns without an exception then this socket is now connected.
Creating new connections to remote Bluetooth devices should not be attempted while device discovery is in progress. Device discovery is a heavyweight procedure on the Bluetooth adapter and will significantly slow a device connection. Use BluetoothAdapter.CancelDiscovery to cancel an ongoing discovery. Discovery is not managed by the Activity, but is run as a system service, so an application should always call BluetoothAdapter.CancelDiscovery even if it did not directly request a discovery, just to be sure.
BluetoothSocket.Close can be used to abort this call from another thread.
