RussianQuestion
A little bit about my current setup:
Currently I have a Android program split into a bunch of different fragments. The home fragment scans for a Bluetooth connection with a specific MAC Address, and socket UUID. This connection works fine (no problem yet).
The broadcasting Bluetooth server is a beaglebone black that is running ubuntu and is utilizing bluez to broadcast a specific service with a specific UUID.
Problem: When I switch to the gallery fragment, I then attempt to use the already connected Bluetooth service to send data (pictures).
Where I run into trouble is with the command outputStream.write(msgBuffer);. It returns with a "null" error.
So far for debugging I have done the following:
I was curious to see if the original connection ever worked (in the home fragment), so after I connected to the Bluetooth server with a call to connect(), I then tested it with a call to socket.getConnected(). This returned true, meaning the Bluetooth socket must be connected to the Bluetooth server.
I then wanted to see what was happening in the gallery fragment. Before sending my data with the outputStream.write(msgBuffer); command, I ran socket.getConnected() which returned false. Thus meaning the socket must be disconnected.... Why is the bluetooth server now disconnected? Do I have to do anything special to keep the bluetooth connection open? Do I have to do anything special to keep the connection alive when switching fragments?
What would be causing my connection to disconnect in the time between these two events?
Below are my two fragments.

Edits:
Tried to clean this up a bit. If you don't understand this, can you tell me what you don't understand so I can provide more information?
Solution
I wasn't passing the sockets correctly between the fragments, and therefore opened up multiple sockets.......needed to take a break from the project to realize such a silly mistake.
