Hi Dave,

Isn't that pull request from jacquelinecchuang somehow usable for us?

After having read some more threads on this list, I would like to ask if
BRLTTY supports the HID protocol on Android? If not, could that be the
reason why I can’t get my Brailliant BI 40 X to work on my Pixel?
Yes, but let me make this statement more explicit. It's why you can't use it 
via Bluetooth. It should work via USB.

The problem is that Google made a very deliberate design decision, some years 
ago, that it's a security risk for an app that isn't part of the base system to 
be able to see a device's HID descriptor. It's probably time to recheck this to 
see if it's still true.
