hello,
I have a problem on associate touchscreen on my tablet android based. My touchscreen have a usb cable, and I have only linux based driver. Now I need porting this touch screen on a arm platform with android pre build [I can build kernel]. In /proc/bus/usb/devices I can see the usb touchscreen, in /dev/input/mice I see the touchscreen output. It s work.
Now, How Can I associate this touchscreen on android? I don't have a android driver.
Thanks so much

Seems to be that the big problem with getting Android ported to interesting hardware is the lack of drivers.
This is the same problem that existed(still does exist) with Linux and some networking hardware. Linux has ndiswrapper which is a Linux device driver that wraps windows drivers, and thus lets you use your otherwise unsupported hardware.
Would the same thing be possible with Android?
Obviously it would have to do more than ndiswrapper. Like Comms, Wifi, GPS, etc..
I've done a little Linux device driver development but know nothing about windows, Android or mobile comms.

Well, there are WELL lot more than u can think of........even if u port all the drivers in, it may still not work! Even a company like Huawei, their smartphone team need to spend a quarter to make Andriod 1.5 work on their Hisilicon platform; yet, need to work again for 1.6 again.........Andriod is not developer-friendly!
Hi guys.
Have you guys heard if anybody is working on getting Android x86 to support the hardware in the shift?
maybe that : http://www.androidx86.org/screenshots.html
Anybody try this? It support the samsung q1 ultra, and it is similar to our shift...
I have it running on my shift as we speak, (well it was till the screen turned off, now it won't turn back on again though didn't really expect the power management to work tbh)
Wifi : Not working
bluetooth : Not working
3g : Not working
Screen : Res 640 x 480 x 16 works nicely
Touchpad : works
Volume keys : works
Haven't tried anything else as it is not very stable,
I used this build http://android-x86.googlecode.com/files/froyo-vm-20100812.iso which works if you write to a disk using unetbootin and boot using the Vesa mode then choose 640 x 480 x 16 mode.
I would have thought that it should be perfectly possible to get the touchscreen working as we can now get ubuntu with touchscreen working 100% and I'm sure the htcpen drivers could be adapted for android. Don't know about the wifi or 3g though as there still are no working drivers for ubuntu.
I would love to have android on the shift, tbh probably would prefer on the winmo side and ubuntu on the x86 side, but even on the x86 side it will make an amazing tablet.
And the USB port? Does it work?
did any one tested Froyo?!?

i wanted to know that on v1.6 does sound and graphic work? i mean that in live cd or installing Android,....... drivers doesn't support android
can any one make call on Androd os? does it support simcard?
maybe mine is dead (i'm sure because the power is burned)
and what about UBUNTU 10? i can not test that.if ant body knows plz answer
there are News?
I am currently typing this on my shift running Ubuntu 10.10. Everything works fine except the wifi/3g but I got a mini dongle which works perfectly.
i am using a X86 tablet with android X86 1.6
no channel for x86 version
I am using ICS 2-28-12 build and almost everything works on sandy bridge laptop. I still have some graphics glitches. Wish they had more recent builds

android x86 persistent live
Hello everyone. I found a way to make persistent live USB on x86 Android without installing anything. I have done so
I opened universal usb installer, and I created a live usb with Android 4.4
then I took the toporesize-app for windows and I have created a data.img in ext3 filesystem and copied to the usb live
In conclusion, I set the initial setup I installed the app restarts, and various apps and settings are preserved.
I know this is an incredibly newbish question, but I'd flipped through forums and articles and googled it and still don't quite seem to understand it.
My question is why is android dependent upon manufacturer's release?
Take for example, a desktop computer.
OS
This is the core of the device and the UI between the user and the hardware.
Applications talk to the OS to instruct the hardware to do stuff.
Microsoft and Apple makes the OS.
ex. Windows 7, Mac OS, Linux.
Hardware
Asus, Nvidia, Realtek, marvell make the hardware.
ex. video, LAN, sound etc.
Hardware Bundler
Dell, Alienware, Gateway, Acer
They take commercial hardware and some OEM hardware and assemble it in a way that many consumers will buy their bundle.
For 99.9% of us, not counting Synapse, this is the only way the hardware is packaged together.
Device Standards
Collectively, the manufactures work together to determine certain industry standards ex. ATX, PCI-E, SATA 3, USB 3.0 etc...
Drivers
The manufacturers also make drivers so the OS can make use of their hardware.
Compatibility Is Determined by Driver Support
If the driver exists to talk to a given OS, then the hardware will work.
Not all hardware manufacturers will code for every OS out there.
ex. USB works on all OS because it's more established, but not every sound card will work on a Linux system.
Bringing it home...
So if Microsoft releases Windows 8, and as long as Nvidia releases a driver that works with that OS, then the video card will work.
Can you help me understand how the android phone architecture is so different that it's no longer
OS <-> Driver <-> Hardware?
Sorry for not getting it.
oops, sorry.
My bad, I must have clicked the wrong section.
Can somebody move this thread?

All,
I am working on building a 7" touchscreen LCD into my car to work with my Atrix. The lcd has capability that allows it to work like a mouse, so with the USB output, and the Atrix HD Dock with USB controllers, I was thinking that it should be possible to get the LCD touchscreen to control my atrix when docked. The company (Lilliput) has Linux drivers and the atrix runs in the Webtop environment when docked (which i want) and so i was wondering if there was a way to get these drivers to work that way?
Unfortunately, I am not a programmer, however, if someone could determine a way to make it work, and help me get it running, I will pay for their labor up to $100. If it seems as though it will take more than that, perhaps we can compromise. Anyone up to the task?
attached is the list for the drivers if this helps you get going.

Hi, I bought this tablet because of the stylus and the drawing capablilities, but on youtube I stumbled across a video where one guy attaches a wacom graphic tablet to a Nexus 7 and works even with pressure sensivity, I tried this with my EVGA Tegra Note 7 but didn't work, do you guys know if there is something I have to do before connecting it via OTG? maybe I have to install Wacom drivers to the tablet. The wacom lights up when I connect it to the tablet but doesn't recognize it like a mouse input.
The title of the video in question is "Google Nexus 7 Tablet & OTG Cable for USB Host Connection" I can't post links so please search for it :silly:.
Thanks in advance.
Please forgive my english, is not my natural language.
It's possible the Nexus 7 had a custom rom installed with some kind of drivers added. Impossible to tell without the video. All (well, almost all) of the source code for the Tegra Note 7 is available so that you may compile your own version, including drivers if you find any. I doubt that the stock AOSP kernel supports Wacom tablets out of the box.
On Linux (and therefore Android), the drivers are part of the kernel, so unless someone develops a kernel with the Wacom drivers included, it won't work. Perhaps someone could take Shaky's kernel source and add those drivers and see if it works? I'd give it a go except any time I try anything involving code, a baby unicorn dies.
Yeah it happens to me too, Peta sued me for the unicorns. But a friend of mine that has the same tablet is helping me to make it work, we have the drivers (I think they are the right ones) and maybe we can get it to work.

Wacom tablets (Intuos, Intuos Pro, etc) are compatible with Mac OS X and Windows only. So You can't find a wacom android driver for your Android OS tablet .
