ALDLDroid Android App
Re: ALDLDroid Android App
This is the cable and setup I am using. This is a screen shot also of when I try connect it asks for Bluetooth but I am not using Bluetooth and don't have anything paired Bluetooth wise. It just sits there saying connecting in top left corner
Re: ALDLDroid Android App
Was it the same phone last time you used it?

Re: ALDLDroid Android App
The app is not detecting your cable because it would uses USB before Bluetooth if available. Either the cable is not using an FTDI USB chip or your Android device doesn't support USB host mode most likely.

Re: ALDLDroid Android App
huwaei p30 does support USB host mode. You can try plugging it that card reader in and see if your phone detects it indeed. When you connect your USB cable, Android should ask if you want to open ALDLdroid. If it doesn't, either your phone isn't detecting the cable or the cable isn't FTDI. If it was detected before, more than likely your cable is an FTDI one so somehow USB host mode got broken on your phone. If you have another Android device you can try on, that would be interesting to see what would happen too.
Re: ALDLDroid Android App
I found this app on my phone but I might have another Android tablet to try aldl droid on. If that don't work then maybe my cable is faulty so I might buy that small adaptor from jaycar.
Thanks for your help so far guys

Re: ALDLDroid Android App
The cable can be even just a printer cable if you have another laying around
Re: ALDLDroid Android App
Dylan i got 2 of those printer cables here. Wouldnt that mean i also need the jaycar OTG usb micro adaptor i posted above also ?
Re: ALDLDroid Android App
You'll need the adapter still. I've had a few cables fail over the years but not really the adapters. Hopefully you'll get tuning again soon it's an amazing app
