Question

Has anyone meet the same problem as the following error message shows when calling bluetoothDeive.createBond() method with android 4.4 api?

Answer 1

Try this:

1) remove "android.permission.BLUETOOTH_PRIVILEGED" from your permissions.
2) remove "android.permission.BLUETOOTH".
3) add "android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" and just that.

The reference says that is the only permission needed.https://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothDevice.html#createBond()

EDIT: if you already included "bluetooth_admin", maybe its a platform problem.They may have not supported that functionality earlier. Maybe you should target a higher min-sdk-platform , Im using Android 20 as the minimum (but never tried that function).
