Ya I know what you mean by non-traditional for sure. With Busybox though I do have access to a lot of UNIX commands which is very helpfull. On the Android tablet this is what I am getting under /dev:
sorry for the long output!
THere are a ton of TTY device names but I am not sure what all of them are for. I also don't see any USB.
Ill keep looking into it. I don't see any reason why my simple serial port logger that works flawlessly on any Linux machine so far can't be setup to work on Android.
A last note: when i try random device names the application does seem to find the name and connect....however while listening (I used the C library's select() statement) it is not getting anything coming in.
Cheers

Reason: Change ICODE tags to CODE tags.
Ugh... it looks like they just made every possible device without bothering to wonder which are actually present. Is tty.Bluetooth-Modem a symlink? Look for devices which are symlinks.
ya..not pretty.
I am using a serial to USB converter with hardware by Prolific. It is the pl2303 one.
when i call up lsmod on my Linux laptop that runs the application fine I see a module called: usbserial pl2303
when I call up lsmod on the android I don't see it which makes sense.
I am assuming this may be the reason why #lsusb returns seeing the device but /dev/ttyUSB0 doesnt get populated upon attaching the device.
I think my plan of attack is to find out how to get that module on there......thoughts?

Rudy, the system log outputs this when my device gets attached:
One thought: Just because lsusb shows it, does not mean your system has a driver for it. It recognizes by device serial numbers, of which lsusb has its own independent list. (much like lspci.)
If you can find it in /sys/ though, /sys/ can tell you the major and minor numbers of the device:
this is worked "ANDROID NOUGAT" how can i use it for "ANDROID OREO"

HI there. I am studying System administration right now and am stuck on a question that I have failed to find the answer for in my book.
The question is: Do device files need to be in the /dev directory and to they need to follow a naming convention?
My answer (so far) is that since the... (7 Replies)
