i`m trying to connect u-boot on the BBB to my android device and read the bootp requests. when i type bootp in u-boot it starts the rndis stuff and i get http://pastebin.com/H6xns7P9
Tartarus
Right
vvu
with what does the phone needs to respond ?
Tartarus
So, have you tried with a regular linux box on the other side?
tjagad has left IRC (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)
vvu
yep
Tartarus
Get it working there?
vvu
yep, but that linux box had rndis driver on it
Tartarus
Right
vvu
my android device does not have driver for rndis
Tartarus
So, what's going on with that error is that the android side didn't answer in time
vvu
(get_timer(ts) > timeout); timeout being the USB_CONNECT_TIMEOUT
vvu
was looking in ether.c
Tartarus
Right
Tartarus
You'll need to whack RNDIS support into the android side I believe
vvu
with what does my android need to respond? it needs to set up the usb connection ?
Tartarus
Yes
vvu
ah so my android does not have nothing to set up, doesn`t understand things there right ?
Tartarus
Well, the android device needs to do the other side of usb gadget ethernet support
Tartarus
I'd be more specific but I've not dwelled deeply on the code in question :)
vvu
mhmh know any contact person who i should bug a bit about this ?
Tartarus
not off-hand, but we use the kernel driver here too
Tartarus
So anything you dig up about dealing with USB RNDIS in general should be true here
Tartarus
and in your case, the hard part I suspect will be having to write the USB RNDIS driver in userland in Android
vvu
okok i think i need to dig a bit into android kernels with rndis support
Tartarus
if you aren't allowed to say "custom kernel is required"
Tartarus
Right
vvu
for the project custom kernel is needed, remove OTG support
vvu
to see the ROM enumarating good
