How to reestablish a Bluetooth connection after I leave an activity in Android Studio?

I am working on a project that can send and receive Strings to and from an Arduino to control and monitor various sensors and lights. I am running into an issue where once I leave the activity that connects to Bluetooth and then return to that same activity after visiting the home activity I am no longer able to send and receive data. The sending and receiving of strings works perfectly until I leave the activity to go to the home activity and come back.
Here is the Java code for the sensor activity:

I am new to Android Studio and this is the first time I have had to make a multi-threaded application. Thank You.

you can try to extract the Bluetooth connection method into a simple profit class, similar to "local broadcast manager". When "uvlight" on destroy Bluetooth connection will continue to open. Or you can refer to GitHub's excellent open source libraries, such as: https://github.com/akexorcist/BluetoothSPPLibrary 。 I believe you can learn more in it

Android and BLE

I'm working on a project in which I want to receive the data(, separated value"only two values") from BLE server. my first question is I write the code for connection but I din't connect with it. and second how to read this comma separated value. and this comma separated value will come from arduino to BLE server and from BLE server the communication will be done between both. Code is Below.
IDs
#define SERVICE_UUID "ab0828b1-198e-4351-b779-901fa0e0371e"
#define CHARACTERISTIC_UUID_RX "4ac8a682-9736-4e5d-932b-e9b31405049c"

P.S. i have provided the entire code. this code is actually of this github repo:
https://github.com/IamMayankThakur/android-arduino-using-bluetooth
The code first genereated a IllegalThreadException but after debugging i edited the code and now it doesn't crash but still no incoming data

Making a bluetooth service that sends a signal to arduino bluetooth module

So I have been working with arduino for a while and now I've been trying to connect to the blue-tooth module with android studio. I was able to get the blue-tooth to connect but I'm having issues making the blue-tooth connection a service so that it can run even if the app is closed. Whenever I try to get the service to run on my phone, the app crashes as soon as i try to connect to blue-tooth module where as before when it was an activity, it worked perfectly. I've looked at a lot of links and guides on using services and blue-tooth but none of them do exactly what I want.
Below are some code snippets, but here is a link to the entire GitHub project
Blue-tooth activity that I got to work:

Try this instructables, i did it by reffering to this tutorial

How do I engage a Bluetooth connection with another device?

I'm working on a app that will connect to a OBD2 device through Bluetooth, but I haven't yet figured out how to connect to a Bluetooth device.
I followed a video tutorial, and am currently following this tutorial with hopefully better luck, but I don't really understand how to implement the code since I can't see the full code (I'm a beginner).
Any help is appreciated!
