I´m developing an BLE app, based on the Gatt sample project provided by google: https://developer.android.com/samples/BluetoothLeGatt/index.html. So, I can send data writing in a characteristic successfully. Now I need to know when this characteristic change its value. I understand that I need to implement the setCharacteristicNotification() method and the onDescriptorWrite() method. But I cant do that this works. Searching, I found some ideas about that: Android BLE API: GATT Notification not received, What are the steps to get notified by Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device?, but still no luck I dont understand how it works, what parameter I need define or what I need to do!!!. Some good soul can share me a complete project that do this. All that I need is visualize the value of the characteristic when the BLE device returns some data.
I read the official Android documentation, but it is not so specific about that. Thanks in advance
These are my codes:

To receive notification in Android you need to set characteristic notification to true
You also need to set the client characteristic configuration descriptor 0x2902
A better API would be for setCharacteristicNotification to set the descriptor, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work that way.
