java - Stop conversion decimal to ascii -

i trying send int arduino android via bluetooth if send lets 56, receive 8 in android side...is there anyway can receive 56 , preferably in string form including characters

arduino code :

int level = 56; serial.write(level); 

android code :

 public void run() {         byte[] buffer = new byte[128];         int bytes;           while (true) {             try {                 bytes = connectedinputstream.read(buffer);                 string strreceived = new string(buffer, 0,bytes);                 final string msgreceived =/* string.valueof(bytes) +                         " bytes received: "                         + */strreceived;                    runonuithread(new runnable(){                      @override                     public void run() {                       textstatus.settext(msgreceived);                         value = msgreceived ;                     }}); 

value defined static string class variable

you're converting bytes string , therefore you're getting '8' (char)56;. if don't want that, follows.

bytes = connectedinputstream.read(buffer); string tmp = ""; for(int i=0;i<bytes;i++)     tmp += byte.tostring(buffer[i]);   final string msgreceived = tmp; 

edit

if send follows, example.

serial.write(56); serial.write(76);   

what receive in msgreceived 5676 if both these bytes read. can change behavior in whichever way want.
