I don’t know if it is on a patch somewhere, but I did upload it.  I did have a 
working version that used the usb-serial-for-android library.  In fact I used 
that version on a project.  There was talk of changing that to a library that I 
would write, but I was pulled off onto other projects at work and was unable to 
work on it further.

Subject: Android Serial Port USB device

 

Hello,

Mike Gonza worked on a wrapper of usb-serial-for-android and provided patches a 
while ago but they were not accepted because usb-serial-for-android is LGPLv2.1 
only:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/83480/

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/84338/


 

https://github.com/mik3y/usb-serial-for-android

As a consequence, Qt has no support for non-rooted serial port on Android. 
AFAIK there is no alternative to usb-serial-for-android (other than reinventing 
it from scratch with a more acceptable license). Or is there?

Is there any chance Mike's patches are at least merged as an optional feature 
which is not compiled by default?

 

Thank you
