Hi,,

Thanks for ur reply. Also I found that using "app to app" communication , we can find and even connect to an unpaired device, provided our app is installed on the other devices.

thanks,
Aswathy.

Sorry Aswathy but this is not possible, i don't know the exact reason but it may be because of security issues. Security reasons in my view is because pairing is the process in which you find other blue tooth devices and connect to them by sharing PIN(That is both the parties agree on that). That is why Phones does not expose this functionalities as of now.

Till now what i know is that you can only discover devices that are already paired with the phone on which your application is running.
