[BRLTTY] Android BRLTTY crashes + few other issues

2018-02-28 Thread Robert Pösel
ion, I wanted to compile BRLTTY on Windows, but I had hard time to make it work. Especially because of the autogen, makefile, and other linux tools needed. Do you plan to provide classic Android Studio project so it could be compiled easily on both platforms? Btw why do you target Android

[BRLTTY] Repeated Bluetooth pairing request on Android

2018-03-05 Thread Robert Pösel
correct call (as if channel value was 0), everything works correctly and I've experienced no pairing dialog ever again. I think that if-block and reflection call to that hidden method should be removed completely. Best regards Robert Pösel ___

Some braille devices (by now, usually older ones) don't support SDP (Bluetooth's Service Discovery Protocol). Some drivers, therefore, supply a hard-coded channel number to try if SDP isn't working. I just checked the HumanWare driver. It specifies to fall back to RFCOMM channel 1, and doesn't

Hi, while reading Android documentation I come to this recommendation: "Note: You should always call cancelDiscovery() to ensure that the device isn't performing device discovery before you call connect(). If discovery is in progress, then the connection attempt is significantly slowed, and i

Dne 06.03.2018 v 13:46 Dave Mielke napsal(a): You've given me an idea. I wonder what you, and others, think of it: Brltty could have a setting (or maybe it should jsut do it) to put an on/off control into a notification. This'd make it easy for a user to turn brltty off when he/she doesn't want

Hi, quick comment about notification: It shouldn't be showed when BRLTTY service is disabled. Currently when I enable BRLTTY service, notification is showed, when I disable it, it hides the notification for a moment, but in few seconds shows it again (with text "Waiting"). And similar situat

Android Studio supports compiling native C/C++ libraries. It's not needed to build them separately or use linux specific bash scripts. It just has to be adapted to format Android Studio understands, which is CMake. So it is possible to make BRLTTY compile inside Android Studio (on Windows/Linu
