Android Bluetooth version and Supported profiles

Question

is it possible to get the android phone Bluetooth version and list of supported Bluetooth profiles.

I saw that we can identify whether the Bluetooth is LowEnergy or not. Is there any way to find the exact bluetooth version.

Answer 1

Seems there is no API method to get Bluetooth version and Supported profiles from the application directly on a android device, but You can get requirements for version of Android OS from Android Compatibility Definition Document (CDD) and get "minimal" BT version and amount of Supported profiles like as in this answer of hemisphire (he analyze SDK Build version):

int version = Integer.parseInt(Build.VERSION.SDK);
String bluezStack = "";
switch (version) {
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.BASE:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.BASE_1_1:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.CUPCAKE:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.DONUT:
        bluezStack = "Bluez 3.36";
        break;
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.ECLAIR:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.ECLAIR_0_1:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.ECLAIR_MR1:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.FROYO:
        bluezStack = "Bluez 4.47";
        break;
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.GINGERBREAD:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.GINGERBREAD_MR1:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB_MR1:
    case Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB_MR2:
        bluezStack = "Bluez 4.69";
        break;
    default:
        break;

}
