[Q] USB development on Android - Java for Android App Development

I have a VERY cheap tablet Android (Softwiner Evb). I want to develop an app on it which interfaces to a USB device on a microprocessor (PIC 32).
The Android ADB works fine over USB, but if I try to develop something which "talks" to the same port at the same time, is that even possible?
If so, is anyone in the UK available to help me out to get started? Cash available, obviously. I don't have a problem with the PIC stuff etc, only with the Android dev, I'm using Android Studio but I have Visual Studio and loads of other platforms if I need them.
Thanks in advance.

need some advice on development SDKs

Hi everybody,
I am looking for sdks/tools/ ... for mobile development.
e.g.
- sdk like the flash player sdk (http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_sdk/),
to integrate flash functionality into own applications, has anybody used it?
- are there any sdks that provide advanced multimedia functionalities?
(e.g. access to build in cameras and convertion functionalities)
- or recognition tools speech recognizers, synthesizers ...
- or cool graphic libraries
- or sip and IM functionalties
I am willing to spend some money to get the best software,
my target os is windows mobile
would be happy to get some feedback on what is currently available and used by experts.
thanks

Can a Palm OS platform run simultaniously on a WM6 phone?

Hi guys, I have an HTC touch (sprint) and got a job with a air balancing company and they have software that links their ppc's to their server for live data entry. however the application is only available for the palm os. Does anyone know if installing multiple OS's on a phone is even possible, like installing linux on an ipod? or if not, any way to convert a palm os application to WM6 combatible application. If needed, i have the install files for my application, any assistance would be greatly appreciated. If nothing exists i would even consider payment for the application to be convtered if anyone is intrested.
Thank you
Matt
you would probably have to build the application up again from the ground up if its a native palm application, although, if its written in a common language, i dont see why it couldnt be ported over
somebody more knowledgable should be able to help you better
and welcome to xda-devs
you can use styletap to run palmOS apps on windows mobile, if this is what you want to do.
Well, im 50% there, styletap works great, im able to load the software and run it, no glitches yet, however styletap doesnt seem to be allowing the application to sync with my server. any1 have any ideas? i even tried first establishing a data conn in WM6 using IE and hopped back to style tap to sync again. no luck

Ford Sync Hacking anyone?

Anyone here know anything about hacking the Ford Sync navigation systems? Im told its windows mobile based, maybe windows ce? I really dont know for sure.
what i really want to do is let my android take over the touchscreen so my phone will be displayed on the nav screen. Just cant find many people who want to experiment with their cars. Ill be willing to test but need help developing.
If anyone else is interested in this project please let me know!
FORD Sync is based on the Microsoft Windows Embedded Automotive operating system. It should be possible to pair this WinCE unit with your Android based phone via Bluetooth. Bluetooth enables information to be sent between electronic devices that have Bluetooth.
Im not talking about pairing the phone with sync, im talking about my phone taking over sync.
I, like many others, want to use and access apps from the touchscreen. For example, i like google nav. I want to have google navigation displayed on my sync touchscreen and audio from my car speakers. same for pandora, ect.
OR, car home?
I do not believe Bluetooth is fast enough to handle the video, so this project will likley require the device to be plugged into the usb port.
A start will be hacking in and installing a feature that displays video from the usb. next steps would be getting the touch screen to work with the device and support audio(audio can be via Bluetooth anyways)
I would be happy if you could shell out to the CE interface
I have done some programming on CE and XP Embedded and we used to program with almost a full desktop installed then at last minute before delivery to customer we would remove most of the windows interface except a blank desktop and an application launch icon only. I wish we could enable all of the modules in this release. Pretty much anything windows can do...
On Sync if we could still run the standard apps and shell out to use the functionality of CE or XPE that would be awesome. Then you could just use visual studio express and program away for free. (may have to buy CE plugin ) Many Apps are available already.
Oh well I doubt any of this will happen but I would even pay for the keys to unlock Sync from Ford if they offered it!
What about Raspberry Pi integration rather than an Android? If the nav could be used as a display and input interface, the possibilities would be endless. Where can we start?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Good thing i have 2.
Thats the big question, how to use the nav screen that way. The RP would probably be better since it will be way easier to add the touchscreen interface. I wonder if we could just configure the screen to have a 2nd input that can be switched back and forth? sound would be an issue but a good second step.
I know this is an old post but here is a link. Ford finally open sourced their information. http://openxcplatform.com/

Apple Magic Mouse with Fire HD 10

Hello all,
I have been using my Apple Magic Mouse 1 with my new Fire Tablet. However, the scroll functionality is not working.
I know for use with Windows I had to download and install the Bootcamp drivers for Windows made by Apple, which allowed the scroll/touch functionality.
I was wondering if anyone had figured out a way to get the scroll to work?
I have looked into porting windows drivers to Android, but that task is looking to be near-impossible. I also know that the scroll functionality works with some Android devices such as the Galaxy Tab. So I'm just wondering what's missing here and what can I do to figure this out. I am a computer programmer and I know there must be a way.
Thanks for reading and appreciate your insights.
Kind regards,
RimZ
