Link-OS Bluetooth Printers using an Android 6.x (Marshmallow) device with the Zebra Link-OS SDK
Article ID: 26672935
Topic or Information Printer does not make a Bluetooth connection due to Android security configurationApplies To Android 6.x (Marshmallow - API level 23) Link OS compatible printers using Bluetooth and the SDK Details Security enhancements in Android 6.x (Marshmallow - API level 23) require applications that require access to Bluetooth hardware to be recompiled with an additional permission. For applications built using the Zebra Link-OS SDK, add the following line to the Android project’s manifest file: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" /> If this permission is missing your Zebra Link-OS SDK application will not be able to perform a Bluetooth device discovery. However, other SDK functionality will operate normally. Source Arthur P. |
