Hi guys, Can anybody provide some help for providing the rs232 communication on mini2440 board. Now I have successfully installed an android 1.5 system on my board (with 128M NAND flash). Now I need to create some applications which enable the board communicate to the PC via the RS232 cable. I will be very grateful if anyone can provide me some instructions or examples. Regards
I think that android OS not support RS232 port. please email me because I wanna buy mini2440 module but i need some information about it. -----halburquerque@gmail.com------- may thid may help you.------------------------- Using this code you can get the serial ports to work under Android on the mini6410 but you need a little work to rebuild the Android OS for it to work first time. http://code.google.com/p/android-serialport-api/ You need to rebuild with genroot.sh and include the following 3 lines after the mknod for the ports. Without these I got permission errors when I tried to open the ports. # The following is needed to allow user access to the serial ports chmod 666 rootfs_dir/dev/s3c2410_serial1 chmod 666 rootfs_dir/dev/s3c2410_serial2 chmod 666 rootfs_dir/dev/s3c2410_serial3 The init.rc should do this but for some reason it don't work. I also had to change the serialport-api SerialPort.c code to remove the O_DIRECT flag on the open and then recompile (You need the Android NDK to do this) and then I was able to open the ports and send and receive data. If anyone has any questions on this, give me a shout? Dave...
