I am compiling for SDK 10 (2.3.3):

android:minSdkVersion="10"
android:targetSdkVersion="16"

I am testing on two Sony Ericsson smartphones. One has Android 2.3.7 on it and the other 4.0.1.

I am using listenUsingInsecureRfcommWithServiceRecord to open a new server socket on bluetooth and listen to connections.

If the connection is accepted successfully then everything works fine. I can even try to cancel the server socket but that does not seem to bother the connection socket just created.

BUT when I want to cancel the server socket before having accepted any connections as soon as the line bluetoothServerSocket.close(); gets executed the entire activity closes and the process dies. And furthermore this is not a regular exception which I could handle.

Actually even logcat itself quits!! and I have to quickly execute it again in order to grab the errors you can see below:
