State gets Unsupported after refresh or JS crash

Prerequisites

• I am running the latest version
• I checked the documentation and found no answer
• I checked to make sure that this issue has not already been filed

Expected Behavior

After refreshing the app or having a JavaScript crash on iOS Bluetooth Adapter State should have the current state of BLE (same that it was if it wasn’t changed by an external condition).

Current Behavior

Sometimes it comes as Unsupported even though it is PoweredOn, it just goes back to normal if the app is killed and opened again. Happens randomly. Is there a way to refresh the connection with hardware components?

Steps to Reproduce

Please provide detailed steps for reproducing the issue.

1. Subscribe and log BLE state changes with onStateChange
2. Connect with a BLE device
3. Start monitoring data
4. Toggle RN commands and press Refresh
5. Notice that the state goes from Unknown to Unsupported and get stuck in this state

To have it happen it could be needed to run these steps more than once since it happens randomly.

Same issue. It has something to do with scanning the devices to soon after manager creation. 🤷 Haven’t been able to figure it out yet, but for testing purposes I’m delaying BLE functions (scan) after BleManager creation by 1s.

You should always wait for “PoweredOn” state before doing anything with a Bluetooth. You can use this call to monitor it: https://polidea.github.io/react-native-ble-plx/#blemanageronstatechange
