Start app after boot up with bluetooth gps

Beitrag von Phuong »

Dear friend, I use your application to use garmin glo 2 on the android screen of my car. The application runs very well, however, when I select the start app after bootup, the application does not automatically connect bluetooth to glo 2, I have to lauch the application manually. Can you add the auto pair function with bluetooth gps in service?

Hi Phuong,

The request is still on my ToDo list - i guess on next App update it's implemented.

I just updated the app. Now the application starts on boot just like running a normal application. However, can you make the application run in the background as a service at boot and automatically connect to the bluetooth gps in the service?

What exactly do you mean?
The app should not be visible after the device is booted?

If so - let me check, but i thinks that's not so easy to change on my app.
There is a background service (which is managing the NMEA data) but this service
is not able to open a connection to bluetooth or USB.
This last-mode handler is in the app activity (not in the service), so the app must start.

A solution maybe is to hide the app again as soon as lastmode is restored.

I mean exactly that. But now I have a solution for that problem. I used tasker to hide the app when it first runs. Thanks for your great support
