touch button with hold and unhold events to send different data in android - events

Question

i want a button that will send a data to a Bluetooth device when the button get touched once. and after removing the touch the button should send another data once. it's like when i touch the button and hold it, it'll only send a string like 'A' and when the touch removed it'll send another string like 'C'. i am a beginner. here is my code with two button but now i want only one button to control.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private static final String TAG = "bluetooth1";
Button btnOn, btnOff;
private BluetoothAdapter btAdapter = null;
private BluetoothSocket btSocket = null;
private OutputStream outStream = null;
private static final UUID MY_UUID = UUID.fromString("00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB");
private static String address = "98:D3:31:30:27:BD";
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
btnOn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnOn);
btnOff = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnOff);
btAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter();
checkBTState();
// i want one button here for touch event
btnOn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
sendData("A");
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Turn on LED", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
btnOff.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
sendData("C");
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Turn off LED", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
private BluetoothSocket createBluetoothSocket(BluetoothDevice device) throws IOException {
if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 10){
try {
final Method m = device.getClass().getMethod("createInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord", new Class[] { UUID.class });
return (BluetoothSocket) m.invoke(device, MY_UUID);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Could not create Insecure RFComm Connection",e);
}
}
return device.createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(MY_UUID);
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
Log.d(TAG, "...onResume - try connect...");
BluetoothDevice device = btAdapter.getRemoteDevice(address);
try {
btSocket = createBluetoothSocket(device);
} catch (IOException e1) {
errorExit("Fatal Error", "In onResume() and socket create failed: " + e1.getMessage() + ".");
}
btAdapter.cancelDiscovery();
Log.d(TAG, "...Connecting...");
try {
btSocket.connect();
Log.d(TAG, "...Connection ok...");
} catch (IOException e) {
try {
btSocket.close();
} catch (IOException e2) {
errorExit("Fatal Error", "In onResume() and unable to close socket during connection failure" + e2.getMessage() + ".");
}
}

try {

} catch (IOException e2) {
errorExit("Fatal Error", "In onPause() and failed to close socket." + e2.getMessage() + ".");
}
}
private void checkBTState() {
if(btAdapter==null) {
errorExit("Fatal Error", "Bluetooth not support");
} else {
if (btAdapter.isEnabled()) {
Log.d(TAG, "...Bluetooth ON...");
} else {
Intent enableBtIntent = new Intent(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE);
startActivityForResult(enableBtIntent, 1);
}
}
}
private void errorExit(String title, String message){
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), title + " - " + message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
finish();
}
private void sendData(String message) {
byte[] msgBuffer = message.getBytes();
Log.d(TAG, "...Send data: " + message + "...");
try {
outStream.write(msgBuffer);
} catch (IOException e) {
String msg = "In onResume() and an exception occurred during write: " + e.getMessage();
if (address.equals("00:00:00:00:00:00"))
msg = msg + ".\n\nUpdate your server address from 00:00:00:00:00:00 to the correct address on line 35 in the java code";
msg = msg + ".\n\nCheck that the SPP UUID: " + MY_UUID.toString() + " exists on server.\n\n";
errorExit("Fatal Error", msg);
}
}
}

Answer 1

i solve the following by this and it's works perfect
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN ) {
sendData("A");
return true;
}
if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
sendData("C");
return true;
}
return false;
}
});
