How to solve the BluetoothGatt : android.os.DeadObjectException error happened in Android?

Question

I following the page Bluetooth Low Energy for developing in Android 4.3 for Bluetooth Low Energy .

I already can turn on the Bluetooth

Answer 1

This problem is very tricky to solve but seems to have to do with some sort of race condition in the android bluetooth stack. Doug's answer of catching Exception e and then checking if its a dead object did not work when I tried. I did notice that when I call

bluetoothGatt.connect()

a return value of false can indicate a dead object exception.
