Could not change the group owner ( Group Owner Intent )

I just add two buttons on the WiFiDirectDemo provided by Google. One of the button is called "Owner" and the other is "Client".

I what two device to choose if they what to be the owner or not.

In the beginning, I thought it would work if I change the number between 0 and 15:

config.groupOwnerIntent = 0;

But it didn't work.

One of the device keeping act as Group Owner. Even if I change the "groupOwnerIntent".

Here is my code ( DeviceDetailFragment.java ):

mContentView.findViewById(R.id.btn_owner).setOnClickListener(
new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
    intentNumber = 15;
    Toast.makeText(v.getContext(),String.valueOf(intentNumber), 
          Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
});

mContentView.findViewById(R.id.btn_client).setOnClickListener(
new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    intentNumber = 0;
    Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), String.valueOf(intentNumber), 
              Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
});

//********************************************************************

    mContentView.findViewById(R.id.btn_connect)
                          .setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        //WifiP2pConfig config = chooseOwner(ownerIntentNumber);
        WifiP2pConfig config = new WifiP2pConfig();
    config.deviceAddress = device.deviceAddress;
    config.wps.setup = WpsInfo.PBC;
    config.groupOwnerIntent = intentNumber;
    Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), String.valueOf(intentNumber), 
                  Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }   
});

Please give me some advise. Thank you very much.

My devices are two Nexus 7.

Another common mistake I made: The the device on which the Owner/Client button is pressed (to change the config groupownerintent value) must initiate the connection by pressing the connect button and not the other device.

I just suffered with same problem.

In my case, that happened because Wi-Fi Direct group was remembered by the device.

In Galaxy Nexus, I could forget it by changing setting in

Setting -> Wi-Fi -> Wi-Fi Direct -> Select the group remembered -> Forget

And then, I could change the group owner as I configured.
