A little off topic - but, could mtty be used to hack other devices attached to the USB-port - for instance an Creative mp3 player ?
Sorry for being a bit off topic, but - its hacking and its about mtty
Prip
MTTY is an HTC tool designed to communicate with bootloader of their devices. So it cannot be used with others.
Hey there!
Okay, long story short:
I've got a Toshiba Intermec CN3 device (has USB Host controller) I would like to develop a driver for a USB scanner. Can anybody give me some tips on what needs to be done in order to achieve this?
The problem is that i can't get the Windows Mobile Platform Builder/Developer... because it's way to expensive.
I was thinking of trying to port the USB Scanner Support for Linux...
I know it might sound silly but i looked everywhere and i couldn't find something like this already done. Do you know of any similar drivers?
Thanks guys!
one dont require the platform builder to make or install a driver
for wm
a search for something like this could get you in the general direction of developing
devices drivers for windows mobile

The guy who started this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480899&highlight=zeno+usb - will probably have some answers or tips.
Thank you both for replying.
@Rudegar i don't think you've understood my question ... i don't want to develop a driver for windows XP/Vista that will support a WM device.... what I need is to write a driver to be installed ON a specific windows mobile device that is capable of USB Hosting.
So the way i see it, when you connect a scanner (for example) to the device, the device should then recognize the scanner make it possible for the user to scan documents (for example) directly from the device...
@aiiro i've already pm'ed the guy, hopefully he'll notice my message
Hello everyone,
i was wondering if anyone could give me any tips about how to communicate with android device through usb from c++ or java(i guess that won't work without JNI though). I was trying to google up some documentation on this matter but found nothing. I wanted to program something like 'nokia ovi' suit as my b.c. 'thesis'.
Thanks for reading this, Tomas Herman
Hi,
Did you found any info on this ?
Certainly should be possible since Sync applications are working ...
Daniel
Yes, this is possible but AFAIK only as a hack. You can install the USB driver for the SDK and use adb's port forwarding. See /code.google.com/p/android-notifier/ as an example. Obviously, not an elegant solution and definitely not for the general Android user.
Hey Guys i have a little Question.
First of all, sry for my bad english.
I want to ask if it could be possible to use a external tv-tuner (USB-Device) with an Android Device ? I mean if the Device (Mobile Phone) with Android having supported USB Host Mode could it work with a external TV-Tuner (like for example DVB-T etc.) ?
If the Driver for the "TV-Tuner" are possible in Linux could we compile them into the Android and could we write a little "User interface" where we could switch for example the Channels or moving the Volume ??
If it would give a "User Interface" which would be possible in Linux too than we could use them on the Phone ?
I would like to hear what others are thinking about these and if these could be possible ?
Thanks.

Click to expand...

the only thing i can possibly add to this topic is i believe one of the archos devices has a dvr tuner docking station but i'm not 100% sure if its the win7 one or one of the android tablets, you will have to look.
Greetings,
sorry to post again, but it seems that i posted in a wrong place (htc hd2 forum), because this post adress a wm software development.
So, this is the problem : I'm stuck with my old BK600 (com one, but omiz and freedom kb rebranded)
There are new keyboard (expensive), news driver (not working), future drivers (never going to be released), so as i'm a software developper, i wasn't really glad to abandon and to buy another. The problem is that've never made a driver for windows mobile, and i'm not specialized on bluetooth, so be indulgent...
After searching internet and seeing some articles, i've been on broadcom site (they're doin' the bt stack, so it's normal to go on their site ... guess what ...
i've downloaded the bluetooth stack sdk)
As i develop under linux, but also under windows, i've a visual studio 2008 installed. I compiled the Spp (probably serial port) sample, and without any driver the keyboard paired, negociated a serial port and the monitor show byte received when typing on the keyboard.
So now, if someone know some place to find tutorials to write windows phone driver, i take.
I also would like to discuss about another approch.
What would you think to transcode the keyboard code received in a thread and to redirect them on standard input ? would it be possible ?
Anyway, my needs are very simple, just a bluetooth kb to type on it, no extra functions, ...
Regards, and thanks you for your answers and help.

Hi, it seems that there already is such a software, see:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLRXSBcu6WI
It is stated that it also supports bluetooth keyboards and mouses.
HI radhoo,
they seems to have a problem to release the software (5-6 month they say they're going to), but nothing
on this page : http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=blueinput&tab=download
you click on this link http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=blueinputbroadcom
and you get on this broken page :
http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=blueinputbroadcom
as you see on the xda-forums
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628538&page=2
we are a lot to wait for this software, but nothing.
that's why i'm trying to do a little piece of software (which i'll consolide after i think)
I'm taking the base of the broadcom/widcom stack, and my approach will be to transcode chars to stdin.
It seems that there is a C# wrapper, so it think that i'll recode in c#
anyway,
thanks for answering and long life to xda-dev (very useful)
Ludovic.
work status
- have found a c# wrapper of widcom dll (recompiled) : works bu ti'm rewritting some part of the wrapper as it seems to lacks some feature
- in parallel : working on c++ legacy broadcom sample (works perfectly now with my keyboard, bind with com port done, receiving "things"
now struggling with threads to pump messages and transcode.
If you have something that gets the basic keyboard working, I'd love to test it out.
if your driver is ready for testing, please send me a beta of it for testing on my htc hd2
thanks
I have a same problem .
CLS have u finish your program already? please
I would like to use BK600 on my htc hd mini too
hi, how far did you get?
still at it...?
lots of succes, vicenza
