People are working on this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212288

the problem is that many users don't know what it is and thats why every topic about it dies. however, wifi direct is simply amazing and i really would love to see it on my galaxy s. i also send a mail to samsung support but they only redirect that message to the technik-lab in korea so i really didnt get a answer if this will be implented soon. i hope that the developers here can port it ^^
furthermore there is the app "wifi cast lite" which can be test nowadays. it similiar to wifi direct ^^

RS232 Interface to control hardware?

Hello!
I have a piece hardware which can be controlled via a RS232 interface.
Now I want to replace my controller, a computer, through the Galaxy Tab. Is there a way to communicate from the Galaxy Tab to a RS232 interface with a normal Android App and the right connection hardware/cable?
I found the "FlexSerial" cable. Is this what I need?

I think your challenge may be more driver/software related as opposed to being hardware/cable related. If you do get the cable sorted out, getting the Tab to communicate with the RS232 cables in the right way may be tricky. The flex serial cable is certainly a start but the function you are looking for is probably very specific to the device you want to control so finding the right Android app will not be easy. Just out of curiousity, what device is it?

There is an interface for controlling devices like robots, valves, timers, etc called andruino and it had a developer kit for programming and app creating. I think it will help your project.

ADK is not an option because the controlled hardware can't be changed.
@mkhattab:
Samsung Galaxy Tab Wi-Fi (P1010)
I have planned to development the Android App myself. But I read there are no API functions for a serial interface on Android :/

Are there any APIs / functions for USB interface? I think that's more likely than RS232 and in that case you can use a converter cable provided you have the correct drivers
http://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-RS232-Converter-Cable/dp/B00077DJIQ

Hm no, or maybe it works with a Bluetooth RFCOMM socket and a dongle like http://serialio.com/products/adaptors/BlueSnapStd.php at the hardware

Hi,
Like rangercaptain say, Arduino IMHO is a good choice, another link could be usefully:

Hope to help you

Hi rangercaptain,
Sorry, is not intentionally! i forgot to quote your post, i only added another link for further info
Bye
Idk
P.S.
I have change the post

I know Amigo, it sometimes happens to me.

I don't know anything for a fact about this subject but I will ask a question. Do you think the tab would have to be capable of going into USB host mode? Not as an external device (pc) controlling the tab but the tab controlling the external device (rs232 via USB via 30 pin proprietary Samsung data and charging port).

The second link I gave above is instructions for that. I thought the same as you, but I guess it's not what the op wants.

USB OTG support for USB Data Dongles

Has anyone tried to connect usb data dongles on their Samsung tab 8.9? Im interested in finding out whether my Huawei E1550 will be able to connect to net while on the move. My tab will arrive this week.

I didn't test it. I have a ZTE Stick. I see that there is something for the asus prime, but they only support Huawei sticks maybe your huawei will supported.

How did you get it to work? Im tried with overcome rom but cudnt get it to work.. Your help is much appreciated..

Hi,
I've never used OTG on the tablet but I've read it can read FAT32 dongles. For NTFS support you should run some scripts may be.
I would also like the tablet to read from an external 2.5 (no power supply) NTFS hard drive but as far as I'm concerned I think it cannot be done yet.
Hope it brins some light.
Great forum BTW

I have tested flash disk drives on honeycomb based oversome and its working perfectly. What im interested is to find out how i can get my huawei e1550 3G dongle to work. It gets detected but i cant seem to find the settings to enable the apn. Any ideas?

as I have a 8.9 aswell, and looking for a working 3g dongle... the only thing I found out that there are modules for a500 I belive, just gotta look into those and see what changes need to be made. in theory it shoud work, but I have no idea if it does.
seems like the most compatible dongle is huawei e1550...

I don't believe there are any cars which support MTP for now. UMS is only supported in most cases and you need a car from sometime this year which by a small tiny chance will support UMS. The alcatel phone has an ext SD card, am i wrong? That allows for UMS. Sorry man but if you want an MTP player in your car, ya gotta refit the audio or get a new car. BTW here is a LINK to one of those players. Hit me up with a thanks if i helped. PM me if you have more questions

I installed a new headunit. It specifically states Android compatible (must be android 4.0+ with MTP). This is what the headunit states....So I think it is compatible. It also seems to work with a friend's Galaxy SIII, it just doesn't like my HTC.
But thank you for trying to help.

Never seen that error before ._. Sorry man. Just googled it and seems people are having problems with the pioneer and having the exact same error. Maybe pioneer has a for that you can discuss this abt?

So this is my unit: http://www.pioneer.com.sg/storefront4/ProductDetail/default.asp?ProductId=1349&CatId=,2,33
It says under specifications "requires CD-MU200 (for Android)." Any idea what that is?

Wireless DeX

Hello,
I tried to search but couldn't find something useful.
Can someone tell me if Note's 20 new feature, wireless DeX, can or will, come to our Note 9?
I believe it's just software update and not hardware limitation,right?
Thanks in advance for your time

I read that if, or when, we get UI2.5, wireless DEX is part of that. However, I believe that it only works on new Samsung TV?!
