Android open accessory

This stub is to document the process of trying to get AOA working with older hardware. ie freeduino + spark fun host shield and phones not currently supported.

What I am using

Hardware

• Freeduino 1.22 with a ATmega328p-pu chip
• Sparkfun USB Host shield
• HTC G2

Software

• Arduino 0022
  • ADK release 0512
    • AndroidAccessory (library for Arduino)
    • USB_Host_Shield (library for Arduino)
    • demokit.pde (Arduino sketch for the demokit)*
  • Romfont USB_Host_Shield (library for Arduino)*
• Rancidbacon.com demo sketch & app
• Eclipse
  • Android SDK
    • DemoKit (demo android app that comes with the ADK)
• CyanogenMod-7-05252011-NIGHTLY-vision (based on 2.3.4)
  

* indicate that I had to change the code to get it to work.

Changes

There are a few changes that have to be made to the stoke software to get this to work.

demokit.pde

Out of the box the Arduino sketch for the demokit will not compile for the ATmega328. There are a lot of pins that are used that do not have the same name or do not exist.

#include <Wire.h>
#include <Servo.h>

#include <Max3421e.h>
#include <Usb.h>
#include <AndroidAccessory.h>

#define  JOY_SWITCH     A9      // pulls line down when pressed
#define  JOY_nINT       A10     // active low interrupt input
#define  JOY_nRESET     A11     // active low reset output

After removing the definitions that are not used. removed all of the functions that control things that will not be used and changed everything to LED/buttons you this is whats left.
