You have to solve the USB ip connectivity on your Windows system as well as on Android.
On Windows I could think of the following options - get a USB IP support based on Linux. You can run VMWare player or another free Virtual machine on top of Windows. Normally USB connections will be detected correctly on the VM. That's at least my experience when I use VMWare and Parallels on the MAC. - use Cygwin o Windows On Android - you have to port over an open source USB IP library to Android. When you google around you will find many open source projects. The porting might be not trivial because you have to make sure that adb is still supported correctly. -- Roman Baumgaertner Sr. SW Engineer-OSDC ·T· · ·Mobile· stick together The views, opinions and statements in this email are those of the author solely in their individual capacity, and do not necessarily represent those of T-Mobile USA, Inc.
