Hi, I came across this thread because I'm searching for the reason I can't talk to my IOIO with one of my phones. I've been using IOIO for nearly a year now, with an old android 2.3.7 phone. I now want to understand why I can't get it working with my new phone, running 4.3.1. The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S2X.
On recommendation of this thread, I installed the precompiled IOIOSimpleApp.apk, and it's not working. When I connect the phone, it prompts for the openaccessory, which I accepted and made default. I'm unable to control the LED with the app. I've tried with and without the MTP mode set, and USB debugging. Nothing is working for me. When I connect IOIO with the cable, it auto-launches the IOIOsimple app. This IOIO was purchased within the last month. I'm not sure which firmeware is on it, but my test was with the precompiled binary from 0503. I figured surely this was a valid combination. Can you suggest next debug steps? thanks!
