I am using usbSerialForAndroid library for serial communication in android. In my code i have successfully granted read and write permission on USB port. My problem is 'I receive the data on third time when i try to read from serial port, first two times i read the data received is zero bytes'. Oct 16, 2015 Communicate with Your Arduino Through Android. With a PIC 16f1455. The USB library seems to recognice the device as cdc but it does not work. It’s abel to start a serial port but not to open it up. What do I got to do that the port is able to open up? We’re no longer in communication with the author of this article, so I.
This is a driver library for communication with Arduinos and other USB serial hardware onAndroid, using theAndroid USB Host APIavailable on Android 3.1+.
No root access, ADK, or special kernel drivers are required; all drivers are implemented inJava. You get a raw serial port with
read()
, write()
, and other basicfunctions for use with your own protocols.- Homepage: https://github.com/mik3y/usb-serial-for-android

Quick Start
1.Link your project to the library.
2. Copy device_filter.xml to your project's
res/xml/
directory.3. Configure your
AndroidManifest.xml
to notify your app when a device is attached (see Android USB Host documentation for help).4. Use it! Example code snippet:
For a more complete example, see theUsbSerialExamples projectin git, which is a simple application for reading and showing serial data.
A simple Arduino applicationis also available which can be used for testing.
Probing for Unrecognized Devices
Sometimes you may need to do a little extra work to support devices whichusb-serial-for-android doesn't [yet] know about -- but which you know to becompatible with one of the built-in drivers. This may be the case for a brandnew device or for one using a custom VID/PID pair.
UsbSerialProber is a class to help you find and instantiate compatibleUsbSerialDrivers from the tree of connected UsbDevices. Normally, you will usethe default prober returned by
UsbSerialProber.getDefaultProber()
, whichuses the built-in list of well-known VIDs and PIDs that are supported by ourdrivers.SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) offers multi-vendor network monitoring solutions to reduce downtime and help ensure business service delivery. NPM network monitoring software offers fault monitoring, performance analysis, availability monitoring, cross-stack network data correlation, hop-by-hop network path analysis, and much more. The Orion Platform is designed to be both a modular and scalable enterprise software. The Orion Platform is designed to be both a modular and scalable enterprise software. Start with the product you need today and add more as your needs grow. Multi-vendor network monitoring for fault, performance, and availability; Automated capacity. Network monitoring software.
To use your own set of rules, create and use a custom prober:
Of course, nothing requires you to use UsbSerialProber at all: you caninstantiate driver classes directly if you know what you're doing; just supplya compatible UsbDevice.
