Android(安卓)bluetooth low energy (ble) writeCharacteristic delay callback

I am implementing a application on Android using BLE Api (SDK 18), and I have a issue that the transfer data process is delay very slow. This is my log.

For more information, I found that every Transfer Progress only completes when it has the onCharacteristicWrite callback, this means that all sending command before receive onCharacteristicWrite callback will be ignored.

Is this the flow of Android we have to following or there is any way to setup it skip the callback step to speed up the progress.

My code is:

privatefinalBluetoothGattCallback mGattCallback =newBluetoothGattCallback(){......@Overridepublicvoid onCharacteristicWrite(BluetoothGatt gatt,BluetoothGattCharacteristic characteristic,int status){ mSending =false;}};privatevoid writeCharacteristic(){..... mGattCharacSetIntensity.setValue(data); mGattCharacSetIntensity.setWriteType(BluetoothGattCharacteristic.WRITE_TYPE_DEFAULT); mBluetoothGatt.writeCharacteristic(mGattCharacSetIntensity);return;}

EDIT: I have a comparison with iPhone (a BLE transfer data app from AppStore), the BLE transfer data is very quick (less than 0.5 sec), so impressive. How can we work around to SPEED UP the Android BLE Transfer progress?.

EDIT: If I set WriteType of BluetoothGattCharacteristic to WRITE_TYPE_NO_RESPONSE, and when I send many command sequentially, the Android stores them on a queue and send to remote device one by one after receive writeCharacteristic CallBack, this leads to a issue, when you stop your sending lood, the Android Sending Progress still continue with the delay (Sometime more than 3 sec).

Performance of a BLE link is highly dependent on the connection interval used, and if your connection interval is high, the performance you see may not be that unreasonable. By the Core Specification, the connection interval can be between 7.5 ms and 4 s, so there's quite some flexibility.

If it's possible for you, I'd recommend you to try changing the Peripheral you're talking to to use a shorter connection interval, which should improve performance. You may have use in taking a look at this page, explaining BLE throughput, and this page, explaining connection parameters.
