Answer 1

Not sure what the exact problem is, but you definitely don't want to be doing this in your midlet's startApp() method. This is a system lifecycle method, and should return quickly, but scanning for bluetooth devices will block it for a long time. Your startApp() method is tying up the device's resources which it could need for doing the actual scanning!
Refactor, so your device scanning is done in a new thread, then see what happens.

Answer 2

You seem to have misunderstood how the Bluetooth API works. The startInquiry method only starts the device discovery process and returns immediately afterwards, leaving the discovery running in the background. When devices are discovered, you get a callback of the deviceDiscovered method for each of them, and when the discovery process has completed, you get a callback of the inquiryCompleted method. So you need to move the accessing of the vecDevices member and the form manipulation from startApp to inquiryCompleted to be able to actually show the discovered information.

Answer 3

You say all devices are on - but also check if all devices are discoverable.
I've made this mistake before myself!
Lookup the method LocalDevice.setDiscoverable() if you want to toggle between modes programatically.
