I get this error when running on Nexus 5 with Lollipop (lpx13d image).

It looks like Lollipop has a bug in mBTAdapter.getBluetoothLeAdvertiser() https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=77827
Proper bug: https://code.google.com/p/android-developer-preview/issues/detail?id=1570

Do you have your code running on Nexus 7 by any chance?

Here is the error log:

FATAL EXCEPTION: main
Process: pro.dbro.ble, PID: 3094
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void pro.dbro.airshare.app.ui.AirShareFragment.setShouldServiceContinueInBackground(boolean)' on a null object reference

at pro.dbro.ble.ui.activities.MainActivity$1.onItemSelected(MainActivity.java:125)

Code:

mStatusSpinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
                switch (position) {

                    case 0: // Always online
                        mClient.makeAvailable();
                        mAirShareFragment.setShouldServiceContinueInBackground(true); // <---- Null Here
                        break;

                    case 1: // Online when using app
                        mClient.makeAvailable();
                        mAirShareFragment.setShouldServiceContinueInBackground(false);
                        break;

                    case 2: // Offline
                        mClient.makeUnavailable();
//                        mPeerAdapter.clearPeers();
                        break;
                }
                PrefsManager.setStatus(MainActivity.this, position);
            }

I am curious about this restriction, is it because Bluetooth should enable discoverable mode each several minutes like here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6348.

Can this app run on android 8.0 or later. As I know BLE cannot connect between two android phones since Android API 23.

Hello,
would you consider adding support for work over standard Bluetooth (non-LE) piconet / scatternet? You don't have to pair BT devices if you use listenUsingInsecureRfcommWithServiceRecord / createInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord and compatibility with older smartphones would be much better (any Android >= 4.0.3 should work). Somebody already created Bluetooth mesh network framework which can be used as lower network layer for any app: https://github.com/Rasum/beddernet

i could not compile this project that I have checked out. Im not sure why.

I would like to evaluate ble mesh chat and installed it in 2 android phones. It seems that it works at android 5.1 but stuck in welcome page at android 6.0. So what's the difference between android 5.1 and 6.0? How can I fix this issue?

i have successfully run the app on some devices but i'm stuck in the welcome screen. it does not work as said. when i press done after entering my name, just the peer count gets increased. what might be the problem?

Could you add your app into F-Droid?
