Abstract: A method and system for connecting a peripheral device to a user device via a Bluetooth protocol, comprising: at the peripheral device: initiating an broadcasting process, comprising: broadcasting a device discovery message, the device discovery message comprising a predetermined identifier designated for a social networking service associated with a social networking application executing on the user device; receiving, from the user device, a connection request corresponding to the device discovery message; and in response to receiving the connection request from the user device, establishing a Bluetooth connection to the user device.

Abstract: A method and system for connecting a peripheral device to a user device via a Bluetooth protocol, comprising: at the user device: initiating a device scan process, comprising: detecting a device discovery message from the peripheral device; and determining whether the device discovery message includes a predetermined identifier designated for a social networking service associated with a social networking application executing on the user device; upon determining that the device discovery message includes the predetermined identifier designated for the social networking service associated with a social networking application executing on the user device, sending, to the peripheral device, a connection request corresponding to the device discovery message; and establishing a Bluetooth connection to the peripheral device.

Abstract: A method and device for transmitting data between a peripheral device and a user device via a Bluetooth Low Energy connection, comprising: at the peripheral device: transmitting data to the user device in a simulated data stream, the transmitting comprising: identifying a first Bluetooth characteristic for writing data, the first Bluetooth characteristic having been exposed by the peripheral device to the user device; dividing a data packet into a sequence of data frames plus zero or one remainder, each data frame having a respective size equal to a predetermined data size of the identified first Bluetooth characteristic; and for each of the sequence of data frames: writing the data frame to a respective value for the identified first Bluetooth characteristic; and pushing the identified first Bluetooth characteristic for reading by the user device.

Abstract: A traffic control method and device are provided. The method may include: monitoring a user behavior status of an application, where the user behavior status includes an active state or an inactive state; according to predefined correspondence between a user behavior status and a traffic control threshold, determining a traffic control threshold corresponding to the monitored user behavior status; and controlling traffic of the application by using the determined traffic control threshold. Therefore, the traffic of the application can be dynamically monitored and the intelligence of traffic control can be improved.
