No serial library Processing for smartphone. Help

UPDATE! 2021-05-17 I now have this working:
APDE USB / OTG communication - #24 by glv

Adding to the topic…

I took these steps:

  1. I purchased an OTG cable to add to my tool chest.

  2. I got this working using Android Mode on PC.
    No serial library Processing for smartphone. Help - #149 by glv
    I used the device_filter.xml for this.
    This worked so I proceeded to explore further…

  3. UPDATE! I can’t reproduce this on APDE so back to the drawing board!

  4. I found this issue in step #3:
    Impossible to grant access to USB port through AndroidManifest · Issue #84 · Calsign/APDE · GitHub
    The template for the AndroidManifest.xml is here:
    APDE/AppManifest.xml.tmpl at master · Calsign/APDE · GitHub
    The template was copied, renamed, modified and put in the root of my sketch.

  5. There is an APDE v 0.5.2 pre-release that I did not try:
    Releases · Calsign/APDE · GitHub
    There was a discussion about this version in #4 above.

Some interesting posts in this topic for further exploration… one day but not anytime soon.

:)
