Last post demonstrate the Android Bluetooth Le Gatt example code with Arduino/Genuino 101. This post start to (TRY to) implement my own Bluetooth LE Gatt Example, step-by-step. The aim of the examples (in coming series) are scan BLE device, find and link with specified device Genuino 101 (programmed with "LEDCB", refer previous post), and read and write characteristic of the device to turn ON/OFF the Genuino 101 on-board LED.
In this first step, create a new project in Android Studio, named AndroidBleGatt.
In my example (in coming post) I will scan LE device using BluetoothLeScanner (Added in API level 21) instead of calling deprecated startLeScan() and stopLeScan() methods as in the BluetoothLeGatt example, so specify the Min Sdk Version of API 21.
Edit AndroidManifest.xml to add uses-feature of "android.hardware.bluetooth_le", uses-permission of "android.permission.BLUETOOTH", "android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" and "android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION".
This post show how to run the Android Bluetooth Le Gatt example Code to link with Arduino/Genuino 101.
The Arduino/Genuino 101 board contains the Intel® Curie™ Module. The 101 adds Bluetooth Low Energy capabilities and has an on-board 6-axis accelerometer/gyroscope, providing exciting opportunities for building creative projects in the connected world. More information about the technical specifications and documentation can be found on the Arduino/Genuino 101 main page.
In Arduino/Genuino 101 board, program with example:
> File > Examples > CurieBLE > CallbackLED
This example setup Arduino/Genuino 101 as Bluetooth LE device (named "LEDCB") with service with UUID "19B10000-E8F2-537E-4F6C-D104768A1214" and create switch characteristic allowing remote device to read and write, with UUID "19B10001-E8F2-537E-4F6C-D104768A1214". We need the UUIDs in future examples.
So I copy here for future reference:

In Android side, load with example code of Bluetooth Le Gatt:
How it run:
This demo haven't show any real function indeed. In coming posts, I will TRY to implement my own example app (with re-using part of the Bluetooth Le Gatt example) to control and read state from Genuino 101. Currently, I don't know how much I can.
Here we will send dummy data of Heart Rate Measurement profile by Arduino Due + HM-10.
First of all, edit BluetoothLeService.java to resume original handling for Heart Rate Measurement profile:

Connect Arduino Due and HM-10:

Program on Arduino Due, DueSimHeartRate.ino. It only send dummy heart rate data to serial port.

According to the selling, AT-09 compatible with HM-10 (pin-to-pin NOT compatible). So the modified BluetoothLeGatt sample can connect to AT-09 also.
In my test, I tried to send AT command to AT-09 via FTDI adapter, but no respond returned! Actually I haven't received anything from AT-09/FTDI. It may be something wrong on my AT-09 sample, or on AT-09 TX - FTDI Adapter RX path, or may be somethong wrong on me!
Updated@2016-06-20:
According to Anonymous comment: AT-09 is actually BLE-CC41-A module. They need {CR}{LF} after AT command.
Edit SampleGattAttributes.java of BluetoothLeGatt sample to match 0xffe0 and 0xff1, and correct BluetoothLeService.java accordingly. Now, the sample app can recognize HM-10.

In the last step in this post, I want to make the BluetoothLeGatt app to receive something from HM-10.
In HM-10 side, FTDI USB-Serial adapter is needed to connect HM-10 to PC via USB/Serial. Such that I can enter something in PC, using Arduino Serial Monitor. Refer Arduino-er: Test HM-10 Bluetooth 4.0 BLE module with FTDI adapter, how to connect PC, FTDI USB-Serial adapter and HM-10.
The original BluetoothLeGatt example target for the Heart Rate Measurement profile. In our demo, we target to receive simple serial data, so modify to by-pass the Heart Rate Measurement profile handling.
Edit broadcastUpdate(final String action, final BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic) method of BluetoothLeService.java.

Android 4.3 (API Level 18) introduces built-in platform support for Bluetooth Low Energy in the central role and provides APIs that apps can use to discover devices, query for services, and read/write characteristics.
To check if your device support Bluetooth Low Energy programmically, check (getPackageManager().hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_BLUETOOTH_LE)).
Nexus 7, 1st gen, not support BlueTooth LE!
MK 908III Android mini PC support both Bluetooth and Bluetooth LE

Bluetooth Low Energy is an incredibly exciting technology with the promise of unlocking a myriad of use cases. This session will focus on new Bluetooth Low Energy features, including improved scanning and newly added support for peripheral mode, in Android.
