Connecting Android to a device with an Unknown UUID

I want to connect my Tablet (with Android OS) to my Computer (with Ubuntu OS and Windows 8) but I don't know how to connect an Android Device to a Device with an Unknown UUID.

I found listenUsingRfcommOn, listenUsingInsecureRfcommOn, listenUsingEncryptedRfcommOn in another Stackoverflow question but I don't know what are those and how to use them. I've searched listenUsingRfcommOn in google and Android Developers Site but I got nothing. (Or at least I couldn't figure out if there was something useful or not).

Does anyone know how can I connect them? And I want some explanation and useful links for those methods.

Thanks.

UUID is meant to identify services , not devices. Devices are recognized by a bluetooth address which is exactly like a MAC address for Laptops/PCs. Frankly, the answer to your question is very huge considering your lack of knowledge about the subject. I suggest you start with some basic understanding of bluetooth programming. You could start with this:

Bluetooth Essentials for Programming by Albert Huang and Larry Rudolph

I'm sure you can find this ebook for free online if you look around.
