I'm wondering if that will send just a single control change message which seems like it will be easier to work with. Then you can just configure whatever song you want to load when you press one of those buttons.
I tested out a bluetooth keyboard (KORG Microkey air) with my Samsung S8 Ultra which should basically be the same as your S8+, and when I initially connect over Bluetooth, it asks me to pair the device. I tap OK, then test out the MIDI over bluetooth and it works great. I then close MobileSheets and restart it. MobileSheets automatically reconnects to the keyboard and all of the MIDI commands work just fine. So I don't see any software issues in MobileSheets at least as far as connecting to Bluetooth devices. I have no idea why the connection over USB isn't working for you, as I've connected 5 different devices over USB without any issues. It's possible you would have more luck if you used something in between the Airstep and MobileSheets such as a Roland UM-One (any connect that is MIDI class compliant).

Oh I am pretty sure the problem is not in musicnotes and more with how android is handling it. One of the things I noticed when I pair it with Music notes it pairs as Just a regular device. It has a Keyboard Option on the bluetooth device but it is disabled. Where if I pair it with actual Android it is listed as an external keyboard. You have set me in the right direction though. I will try the toggle things tomorrow and I will also try passing Midi through. If that doesn't work then I will get one of those Roland UM-One and give that a try.
Did you do anything special to your S8 tablet to get the USB midi to work? Lile I said I never seen anything even detected there plugged in it as USB. I did go in like I said and set the USB to default to midi and shut off Music playing. But still nothing. I do really appreciate all your help though I have been pounding my head on a wall for about a month now trying to get something to work.
