Bug on Blue-Pair App: Bluetooth fails to pair device again after disconnected from other device about blue-pair

[aurasphere]

Hey @gutzygwin ,

thank you very much for taking your time to open this very detailed and well-written issue.

I've looked into this and reproduced the steps you wrote but I haven't been able to find any bugs in this workflow. I've also noticed that the video you attached is a little bit different from the steps you enumerated. So, let me address both cases:

Youtube Video: Pairing two devices and then restarting Bluetooth

In this case, the devices are supposed to be still paired after turning the Bluetooth back on. Please be aware that Bluetooth pairing and connection are not the same.

• Pairing: required only once until the devices are unpaired.
• Connection: required each time a Bluetooth device turn off and on again or after the connection is lost (through an explicit disconnection request for example)

This app performs only the former operation since the latter is usually tied to a specific service one device exposes and this is out of Blue Pair's scope.

Steps on "How to reproduce" section

I've been following this steps but I didn't have any luck on reproducing the issue. Here's what I've done:

1. Pair a device from Blue Pair
2. Unpair the same device from Android's settings
3. Pair again the device from Blue Pair

Here's a video recording of this so you can tell me if I missed something.

Also, I find that some devices (like my computer) automatically fail the second pair attempt if you perform the unpairing from only one side (in my case, I've unpaired the PC from the Android device but I couldn't connect again until I've also removed the Android device from the PC). Please let me know if this was also your case.

Feel free to reply or close the issue. Thank you again for your report and your time.
