Everytime I try to connect to an android 7.0 device, I get an error for device is disconnected. Why is this happening?

See original GitHub issue

           scanAndConnect(){
                this.manager.startDeviceScan(null, null, (error, device) => {
                if(error){
                    console.log('Error occurred while scanning');
                    return;
             }

            if(device.id === MAC ){
                this.manager.stopDeviceScan();

                this.manager.connectToDevice(MAC, {autoConnect:false})
                .then((device) => {
                    this.info("Discovering services and characteristics")
                    console.log('device');
                    return device.services(device.id);
                })
                .then((service) => {
                    this.info("Listening... ")
                    console.log(services)
                })
                .catch((error) => {
                        console.log(error.message);
                        device.cancelConnection();
                        this.scanAndConnect();
                });
            }
        })

I might help elaborate because I’m having the same problem. I’m using the same code to connect to my bluetooth device, every time, after few seconds from the connectToDevice function I get the error “Device [MAC_ADDRESS] was disconnected”.

I can’t see any other log (not “Discovering services and characteristics”, not “Listening…”)…the code goes directly in the catch clause of the function and print the error. Here’s the stackoverflow question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56632350/react-native-bluetooth-device-keep-disconnecting

The problem still exists, any ideas?
