Epona Lost but trying Posts: 6 Reg: Apr 14, 2014 Bristol, UK 3,560	confirm \| cancel 04/25/14 02:58 AM (10 years ago) A question about APIs So I'm still struggling but I'm not done for just yet. I reckon I've inadvertently chosen versions of things which don't speak to each other. So I'm going to start all over again (again). I know things are constantly being updated and I'm too ignorant to know when to follow instructions and when to ignore them as out of date! So. In the BTU video I think it says all bt 2.0 projects are based on Google APIs level 8 / 2.2. So when I go to install the software, is this something I should still be following, or is it old advice? And that google apis are not the same as android apis - what implication does this have when I go to choose which software to download? Thank you for your pity, Epona Title Comments So I'm still struggling but I'm not done for just yet. I reckon I've inadvertently chosen versions of things which don't speak to each other.

The read-me files are different for each so if you follow that, you won't go wrong. For BT 3.0, Smug has a good read-me about google play services that will help https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/GPSRefBT.pdf Alan Comments Hi @Epona, the way you set up Android BT2.0 API's is a little different to BT 3.0.
