Connecting to Pi with Android

Tue Mar 11, 2014 2:38 pm

Hi, everybody!

I installed Android (http://rosefire.us/~razdroid/aaa801/Gin ... Manager.7z) to Raspberry Pi and it seems it work pretty good.
My question is how can i connect to this device (over TCP/IP or USB) and control (work) with it from PC (Window 7). I prefer free LAN solution, but if this is not possible, USB is also good. Please, if you know any way to do that, tell me also settings which i have to adjust on Android PI as well as on Windows.

Thank you very much!

Wait for a while for new version of android..


PS:
If (and now will after broadcom gift) someone sucessfully make GPU drivers then Raspberry android will be most watched/replied forum ;)

Now (while is problem with android running too slow) are no one interested with upgrading sourcecode or watching this forum for reply to new android members which want help.. For long time is abbadoned..

Try to watch it or post question after new android will be build (4.0.4 maybe?) after new drivers will be compiled.. maybe up to two weeks or one month..

Cooking Android ROMs is a complicated process it's not like unpacking tape archive and then running some kind of install script so realistically the ETA is going to be 2 to 3 months.
In any case I doubt Android would out perform Raspbian it's quite a resource hungry operating system which isn't helped by the slow and decrepit ARMv6 processor.

Thank you for reply, sorry for delay.
We became aware of all restrictions Pi has with Android, so we found alternative solution, at least, for now.
