Since I found this app named QPython for Android, just wondering if it possible to read serial data of Arduino on Android using Python (QPython). It would have probably been easier if I had a rooted device, so that I could just use the Termux app and cd /dev to find out the connected devices and their ports. but, question being, is it possible to find the port for the Arduino connected to my Android via OTG? and yes, my phone supports connection over the OTG since ArduinoDroid works very well.

I guess question title sums it all. I have USB mouse, keyboard and VGA monitor. I am ready to buy couple of new adapters/cables. Will it be possible to connect all things up to my Nexus 6.

I recently purchased an iMito MX1 mini-pc. I was disappointed to find that Hulu Plus is not fully supported on my device. I am able to download the app just fine, but I get an in-app error message that tells me that I am able to browse videos through the app, but video playback is not supported. I have root access and was hoping that editing the build.prop file would trick the app into thinking that my device was supported, but no luck. Is there any other way to force or trick an app into working on an unsupported device?

I have a PC with videos, an android mobile device and a TV. I would like to use my mobile in order to stream videos from my PC to the TV. Is the a way to do it? The best offers I found out so far are: 1. connect my TV to "Rikomagic MK802 mini PC ", install BSPlayer on it and control the Rikomagic from my mobile. 2. Jailbreak AppleTV and use "Remote for Apple TV " app I saw many discussions around this issue but couldn't find the right solution for me. Any suggestions?

I am attempting to root at RK3188 Mini PC I bought from amazon. I believe I have found the drivers, but cannot figure out how to connect a USB cable to the device to connect to my PC to root. Please see pictures below: Image Image As you can see the device has a: HDMI port, Charging port, USB port, Audio port, The device takes 2 Amps to power, through the charging port. I could try connecting a microUSB (?) to usb cable to the PC, but I believe it will not be enough to power the device as USB ports only supply up to 500mA. I could also try a USB A to A cable, but I also fear damaging both devices. Any suggests appreciated! Thank you! ************ Update Used the micro USB to USB adapter and found the device powered on from a computer USB port. Still confused as the device needs 2A to operate.
