change text color with spannable

In the below code which is for bluetooth messaging with arduino i am trying to change color on some static strings.
1.On the start button listener i have a message"Connection opened" which i am changing color using the xml file and creating there a string with specific color. This method works only there.
2. i tried another method with spannable string on the send button listener but is not working at all the message comes in black.
what i want to to do is that when i send a message on my textview i see the "send data: "+ string(msg i send) and i want this send data to be red for examle and the same for the receive one.
What i tried untill now is on the code.If there is any idea to try i will be grateful.

Handle stream of data sensor

I'm trying to write a code I can write all the results values from accelerometer sensor into a .txt file. I can't write all the data in somehow. I think there is a problem in my loop. It is just reading about 10 to 15 samples.
How can I write all the values of the sensor into that file until I toggle off the button to stop? here is the code I wrote.
Thanks in advance!

Could you try this for the toggle button onClick callback? It should write all the data when it's unchecked.
OnStore.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if (OnStore.isChecked()){
// should do nothing
} else if (!OnStore.isChecked()){
try {
for(double TotalAccelerate : list){
//System.out.println("final"+ TotalAccelerate);
String space = "\n";
byte[] convert = space.getBytes();
fileOutputStream.write(convert);
String finalData;
finalData = String.valueOf(TotalAccelerate);
fileOutputStream.write(finalData.getBytes());
Log.i(DEBUG, "ans: " + finalData);
}
fileOutputStream.flush();
fileOutputStream.close();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Message saving", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Message Stopped.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});
To regulate the code to start/stop listen to the sensor event, add the following variable somewhere in this class:
private boolean isListening = false;
And make the following modifications to your existing code:
OnStore.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if (OnStore.isChecked()){
//
// set listening flag to true
//
isListening = true;
} else if (!OnStore.isChecked()){
//
// set listening flag to false
//
isListening = false;
try {
for(double TotalAccelerate : list){
//System.out.println("final"+ TotalAccelerate);
String space = "\n";
byte[] convert = space.getBytes();
fileOutputStream.write(convert);
String finalData;
finalData = String.valueOf(TotalAccelerate);
fileOutputStream.write(finalData.getBytes());
Log.i(DEBUG, "ans: " + finalData);
}
fileOutputStream.flush();
fileOutputStream.close();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Message saving", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Message Stopped.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});
#Override
public final void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
// The light sensor returns a single value.
// Many sensors return 3 values, one for each axis.
//
// regulate
//
if (isListening) {
double xx = event.values[0];
double yy = event.values[1];
double zz = event.values[2];
TotalAccelerate = Math.round(Math.sqrt(Math.pow(xx, 2)
+ Math.pow(yy, 2)
+ Math.pow(zz, 2)));
Log.i(DEBUG, "Accelerometer = " + TotalAccelerate);
list.add(TotalAccelerate);
findPeaks(list);
sensorText.setText("Total: " + TotalAccelerate);
Log.i(DEBUG, "list values " + list);
}

Error- In .connect(), I am getting an exception -
read failed, socket might closed or timeout, read ret: -1.
getBluetoothService() called with no BluetoothManagerCallback
connect(), SocketState: INIT, mPfd: {ParcelFileDescriptor: FileDescriptor[55]}
I tried using insecureRFcom, it din't work. I re-paired my device, but didn't work. I removed all other paired devices from mobile, it din't work. I looked around this website and tried many approaches, but nothing works. Hope someone can help me figure out the problem.

Android Studio communicating with HID USB device with controlTransfer

I'm having issues communicating with a HID USB device in Android Studio.
I have code in Python which works perfectly, so the device is fine.
Also note, that I've used this java class for another device where I receive data only and it works wonderfully.
But this new device, I need to send and receive data. So I am using controlTransfer to send data on endpouint 0.
Here's the code (snippets) in Python:
import hid
DEVICEMODE = 0x0B
GBLINK = 0x02
self.dongle = hid.device()
self.dongle.open(self.idVendor, self.idProduct)
self.sendCommand(0, DEVICEMODE, 0x00, 0x01)
self.sendCommand(0, GBLINK, 0x40, 0xFF)
def sendCommand(self, pucknum, cmd, msb, lsb):
command = (0b11000000 & (devicenum << 6)) | cmd
self.dongle.set_nonblocking(1)
self.dongle.write([0x00, command, msb, lsb]) # first byte is report id
self.dongle.set_nonblocking(0)
The code then goes on to send various commands via the sendCommand method.
In Java, I have the following
public class DongleDevice implements Runnable {

}
try { thread.sleep(100); } catch (Exception e) { }
}
command = new byte[] {DEVICEMODE , 0x00, 0x00};
response = usbDeviceConnection.controlTransfer(requestType, requestId, value, index, command, command.length, timeout);

try { thread.sleep(100); } catch (Exception e) { }
deviceFound = false;
}
threadRunning = false;
deviceReady = false;
}
}
When I run my code I get the confirmation that the bytes sent are 3 (a -1 would indicate an error). But the device isn't blinking as it should, and I get all 0's from the read.
Any help would be appreciated.

How to get the data from a Bluetooth Socket in Android?

I'm new at coding in Android. I've been following the book "Professional Android 4 App Development" I am basically trying to figure out a way to receive a bunch of strings over Bluetooth sent by any device. This is what I have so far
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Set up the window layout
setContentView(R.layout.data);
ListView myData = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.list);
final ArrayList<String> mData = new ArrayList<String>();
final ArrayAdapter<String> aa;
aa = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mData);
//Bind Array to List View
myData.setAdapter(aa);
startDiscovery();
String add = BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE;
BluetoothDevice device = mAdapter.getRemoteDevice(add);
connectToServerSocket(device, MY_UUID);
mData.add(0, incoming);
aa.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
This is my onCreate and these are the classes or functions I'm not sure how to call them...
private ArrayList<BluetoothDevice> deviceList =
new ArrayList<BluetoothDevice>();
private void startDiscovery() {
registerReceiver(discoveryResult,
new IntentFilter(BluetoothDevice.ACTION_FOUND));
if (mAdapter.isEnabled() && !mAdapter.isDiscovering())
deviceList.clear();
mAdapter.startDiscovery();
}
BroadcastReceiver discoveryResult = new BroadcastReceiver() {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String remoteDeviceName = intent.getStringExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_NAME);
BluetoothDevice remoteDevice =
intent.getParcelableExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE);
deviceList.add(remoteDevice);
Log.d(TAG, "Discovered" + remoteDeviceName);
}
};
This is my Socket:
private void connectToServerSocket(BluetoothDevice device, UUID uuid){
try{
BluetoothSocket clientSocket = device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(uuid);
clientSocket.connect();
StringBuilder incoming = new StringBuilder();
listenforData(clientSocket, incoming);
transferSocket = clientSocket;
}catch(IOException e){
Log.e("BLUETOOTH","Bluetooth client I/O Exception", e);
}
}
And My listen for data looks like this:
private void listenforData(BluetoothSocket socket, StringBuilder incoming){
int bufferSize = 1024;
byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
try{
InputStream instream = socket.getInputStream();
int bytesRead = -1;
while(true){
bytesRead = instream.read(buffer);
if (bytesRead != -1){
String result = "";
while((bytesRead == bufferSize)&&(buffer[bufferSize-1]!=0)){
result = result + new String(buffer,0,bytesRead-1);
bytesRead= instream.read(buffer);
}
result = result + new String(buffer, 0, bytesRead -1);
incoming.append(result);
}
socket.close();
}
}catch (IOException e){
Log.e(TAG, "Message received failed.", e);
}
finally{
}
}}
What I am missing is how to retrieve the strings from the socket listener and place them on the ListView. I need some guidance. Am I even doing this correctly?
