I have a Bluetooth Low Energy Application which requires an MTU size above the default 23 bytes.
Though Android introduced BluetoothGatt#requestMTU() in API 21, is there any way, including use of private APIs, to accomplish this pre API 21?

If you have control over the peripheral device, you can issue an MTU request (ATT_OP_MTU_REQ, opcode 0x02) from the peripheral. Android is capable of larger GATT MTUs (update: 517 bytes is the maximum value), if requested by the peripheral, and will happily send an according ATT_OP_MTU_RESP.
The only tricky thing is that the MTU exchange may not overlap with a fragmented read/write. One workaround might be a client-side sleep at a given time of the handshake, where the peripheral sends an MTU request. Another possible workaround would be a READ or WRITE on a "magic" characteristic that triggers the MTU exchange.
However, with an increased MTU, I'm much more often receiving Status=133 errors, possibly caused by a higher packet error rate with larger packets?
