Reverse engineering USB devices 101: USB Basics.

Reverse engineering USB devices 101: Understand your target.

Can sending data out of the tablet be controlled by the keyboard rather than having to touch the “send” soft button on the screen, eg by allowing the use of the return key or other key combinations? At the moment the OTG cable sticks out at the bottom side of the screen and thus the tablet can’t properly stand up even with a bookstand.ģ. Support for screen rotation (even just vertically flip over) will be very helpful.

Perhaps I haven’t make sure certain pre-conditions are met. When it does not work, I have no sure way of making the communication start! This may not be caused by any bug in your application. Even power reset on both devices did not change that. I have added external battery power to the Arduino but still not always detected. My Galaxy Tab running Android 4.4.2 does not always detect the Arduino usb serial port using OTG cable. However, some comment for your consideration:ġ. It is great that it works well when it works. I would like some feedback about this new feature 🙂īought the Pro version for the VT100 functionality. UPDATE: Devices with PL2303 chipsets are now supported. If you use it, you find it useful and you have some new ideas or improvements I would love to hear them.

– Design improvement, that is not my best area so do not expect something much better than the retro style it has now. – Add more not supported devices, although that must be done on Usb Serial android library – Macros (Implement a simple BASIC-like language and a simple interface to code on mobile devices would be awesome). – Send through serial port a selected filed from a file explorer. – Flow control and almost more importantly, a interface to handle it manually. There is plenty of room for new features and improvements: – In Usb serial connection, baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity can be configurable before connection. Not only defaults VID and PID, it supports custom VID and PIDS of other manufacturers too. – It supports FTDI chipsets (nice for Arduino stuff), CP210x family of chipsets and soon Prolific pl2303 chipsets. – Allows serial connections over Bluetooth Serial Port Profile and Usb. Here it is the link if you are interested That is the reason because I started to develop my own replacement.įinally I shipped the first version of this app that I called DroidTerm. Some apps I encountered are faulty or does not support the converters I am using for. I certainly missed a good replacement of PuTTY for Android. Most of the work used an Android device as a host of a usb-serial converter to send commands through a serial connection to a custom hardware we developed. Please check it outĭuring my most recent work I had to deal a lot with serial ports and Usb to serial converters. Last information about the current state of DroidTerm.
