Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The Android Bluetooth join works in the reported two-phone test. A race in notification handling can occasionally break an exchange. The Bluetooth prompt result can also be lost if the screen rotates while the dialog is open. Both fixes are small and should be made soon.

Remove the queue item while the lock is held.
Rule broken: all access to this.result must happen under this.lock.
At Line 31, this.result.remove() does not run inside pollNext. It runs later, when Rust calls PollResult.get().get(), and the lock is released by then. Peripheral.Callback.onCharacteristicChanged calls add from the Binder thread at the same time. LinkedList is not thread-safe, so a notification can be lost or the list can be corrupted. Notifications carry the ordered exchange stream, so one lost notification breaks that exchange.

The prompt outcome can stay OUTCOME_IN_FLIGHT permanently.
Rule broken: every started prompt must end with a final promptOutcome.
The answer callbacks are registered with activityResultRegistry.register(key, contract, callback). That overload is not tied to a lifecycle owner. Two cases lose the answer:
- Activity recreated while the dialog is open. This happens on rotation, a configuration change, or process restore. The registry delivers the result to the new Activity, which has no callback registered under
PERMISSIONS_KEYorENABLE_KEY. The callback never runs. promptcalled twice while a dialog is open. The secondregisterunder the same key replaces the first callback.
In both cases promptOutcome stays OUTCOME_IN_FLIGHT. prompt_outcome() in crates/connetto-client/src/bluetooth/android.rs then returns None indefinitely. The client never learns whether the user granted or declined.
Suggested fixes:
- Do not start a new dialog while a dialog is open.
- If the outcome is
OUTCOME_IN_FLIGHTbut no launcher is still registered, recompute it frommissingPermissionsLocked()andadapter.isEnabled.

Beacon cleanup is skipped when run_peer_proof fails before the Bluetooth setup, and it also hides the Bluetooth-off failure.
The cleanup disables Bluetooth with let _ =. The documented contract is that both phones end with Bluetooth off. A failed disable is silent, so the proof can pass while a phone stays on. A phone left on keeps advertising and scanning into the next run.
Check the post-condition. Read bluetooth_on state back, or fold the disable result into the returned Result the way restore_role and restore_stay are folded.

The beacon join can match a stale nearby: line and join the wrong host.
wait_for_text looks for nearby: {prefix} on the joiner page. The prefix is 8 bytes of the leaf fingerprint. The match does not bind to a line start or to the host that just started advertising. If the joiner already shows a nearby: line for the same prefix from an earlier host run, the wait passes at once, before the new beacon is current. The later Join the nearby host click then uses the strongest host, not the host this proof read.
The click path in PeerPanel selects by RSSI only. With a second beacon in range, the proof can join a different host and still pass if that host links. Make the proof fail when more than one nearby: line is present, or assert the single expected line before the click.

The nearby join has no guard against a concurrent attempt.
The button spawns join_nearby on every click and overwrites outcome from each task. Two quick clicks queue two exchanges. The second gets Busy while the first runs, and its error text replaces the in-progress status. When the first one succeeds later, the final outcome can show the stale Busy or the success depending on completion order.
Track an in-flight flag, or ignore the click while outcome shows joining the nearby host.

The nearby-host pick is not deterministic for equal or missing signal.
max_by_key returns the last maximal element. Hosts with rssi of None all map to i16::MIN, so the pick depends on event arrival order. HostNearby removes and re-pushes an entry on every prefix change, so a refreshed host moves to the end and wins ties. A host with no signal data can be chosen over a known weak one only by order, not by strength, and the choice changes between clicks.
Break ties on host so the selection is stable.

An Android device now finds a nearby host's Bluetooth beacon, fetches the hotspot over the identity-proven exchange from #140, and joins it, so two phones link with one tap on the joiner and the system's approval. The joiner's central is btleplug, pinned to the fork carrying deviceplug/btleplug#495 until a release includes it. The demo lists the hosts it sees and gains a button that joins the strongest.
Decision 22 in the plan places the work.
connetto-clientimplements the central over btleplug on a thread of its own, so iOS, macOS, Windows and Linux can run the same code later without changes.connetto-peer-androidonly bridges Android's virtual machine to the jni version btleplug links, with the oneunsafecall that bridge needs under the crate's own lints, and bundles btleplug's Java under its licence with R8 keep rules. A device whose central does not start neither scans nor joins.Two Galaxy A35s on emi ran the whole path. The Android 14 phone saw the Android 15 phone's beacon on its panel, joined through the exchange, and both phones named each other linked before leaving and stopping the hotspot. That first real connection found three bugs in the host half and two Android-only clippy errors in the hotspot backend, now fixed on #140 and #137, which this branch is rebased on.
Android clients could not discover a nearby host’s Bluetooth beacon or join through the Bluetooth exchange. The client lacked a Bluetooth central, and the Android integration did not provide the JVM support that
btleplugneeds.The change runs the central on a dedicated thread and bridges it to Android’s JVM. When the central starts, the joiner can discover hosts and connect through the existing identity proven exchange. The demo and Android proof flow now cover nearby host selection and joining.
