Question

I want to switch on bluetooth grammatically in iPhone. This is my code for that —

Class BluetoothManager = objc_getClass("BluetoothManager");
id btCont = [BluetoothManager sharedInstance];
[btCont setPowered:YES];

I put the .header files under Header flolder under following path :

/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS5.0.sdk/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BluetoothManager.framework/Headers

But the problem is that its giving me an error i.e. : ‘BluetoothManager/BluetoothManager.h’ file not found

So please let me know if I done something wrong here.

I found this all stuff from following link :

Programmatically turn on bluetooth in the iphone sdk?

Thank you very much
In advance.

Answer 1

with finding trying various things, I found the simple way to trun on bluetooth with “GameKit” framework.

Steps to implement :

1. Add the GameKit framework to your project.

2. Import class to your project — #import GameKit/GameKit.h>

3. create object of GKPeerPickerController
   GKPeerPickerController *connectionPicker;

4. Paste this code in viewDidLoad

   connectionPicker = [[GKPeerPickerController alloc] init];
   connectionPicker.delegate = self;
   [connectionPicker show];

It showing you the alert popup to turn on bluetooth and clicking on yes you will get the bluetooth on.

But I dont know about the customizing that popup so if anyone knows please let me know.

Thank you in advance. 🙂
