Android GCS and Android 5 ? Strange issue...
Posted: Fri Sep 04, 2015 6:16 pm
Dont know if any of you has other experience or maybe a troubleshooting, but i recognized today that the Android GCS is doint very strange on Android 5.0.2 devices.
Have a Samsung S5 Smartphone ( 901-F) and Tablet S (SM-T800) , both running on Android 5.0.2
Installed GCS, App starts and i can connect using standard BT connection. Get live values and can edit settings.
But, with my 3DR radio modules, it is very strange : The device is recognized (asking for App to start automatically when connected and even verified by USB Host Diagnostics tool ) . When i configure USB as desired connection, i can "connect", but i dont get any data from Autoquad. Neither live-data nor accessing the setting (try to "refresh" only causes the message "please connect first" and no data get retrieved.
Now i´m wondering where the problem might be. I remember, as lomng as my Smartphone had 4.4.2 , it worked - and everytime i plugged in the USB-OTG-adapter (w/o 3dr module) i got a system message showing that OTG was plugged in. This does not appear anymore since 5.0.2 - and now only storages can be accessed.
Any suggestion how to fix it ? Its really bad if cannot use the 3dr modules with my tablet, i want to use it for Missionplanning in the field instead of my Laptop ( btw : under Windows i have no problem with the 3dr modules for telemetrie, works fine, so modules are still okay ).
