Id like to enable bluetooth like in this example.
However my class isnt a Activity but a Service and therefore I can't call startActivityForResult. How can i solve this problem?. I know there are other questions that have been answered like
use startActivityForResult from non-activity
but this doesn't solve my problem because my application consists of the service and nothing else.
I know this is an older question, but I've run into a similar challenge, and my solution was to create an activity with android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoDisplay", and then call startActivityForResult() from that. That creates an invisible activity that can both request and receive the intents, before writing data somewhere and then finishing itself.
I know this is an older question, but I've run into a similar challenge, and my solution was to start the activity using startActivity() instead of startActivityForResult(), and using Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK. Then call startService() from the activity instead of setResult(), then use onStartCommand() instead of onActivityResult().
Binding to the service as @Pomagranite suggested could also work, but that seems more complicated :)
