QtSerialPort on Android (Qt.5.12.x)
-
Hi,
Today I was working on a little project that reads some data from a sensor by a CP210x serial/USB device.
on my ubuntu, I use ttyUSB0 to connect to my device but on the Android device it's not working and the serial port open function returns false for the operation result.
I also tried ttyUSB1,2,3,4 and no luck.
With the help of some other software looks like the device is located in /dev/bus/001/131 not in /dev/tty*.
Any idea what is wrong or what should i do? -
What's error code returned? (I suspect that is is 'permisison' error).
BTW: QSerialPort don't supported on Android. Use it on own risk.

Are you sure this hardware is supported by Android? Which version of Android you are using?
To me, it looks like Android did not recognize the hardware. -

There is no actual error code.
There are QSerialPort::error()

No, the serial port should be located in /dev/tty. If there are no serial port exists, this means that the Android kernel don't see that device (there are no appropriate drivers).

so according to this link and the evidence cp210x is not supported by the android and i need to take another approach to the matter.
Anyway, I will share the result as soon as it's done.
