Any way to go about this?

This is not possible and here is why:

When two devices connect over Bluetooth one acts as a server and the other as a client. When the server creates its BluetoothServerSocket it provides a string (it can be the application's package) and a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID).

On the other side,

when the client attempts to connect with this device (the server), it carries a UUID that uniquely identifies the service with which it wants to connect. These UUIDs must match in order for the connection to be accepted.

You can read all of these here.
