[android-developers] Re: Disable Bluetooth discoverable mode

Have you figured out how to start the discoverable mode without having
to request the user to press YES? I am having a similar problem as
you. I wanted to have my app to be able to use the bluetooth and be
discoverable automatically and without turning off after a certain
amount of time.

Have you tried mBluetoothAdapter.cancelDiscovery() or have some way to
check the remaining time?
