Give permanent usb permission #17

Closed Bigmanni closed 6 years ago

Bigmanni commented 6 years ago

Hi, Is it possible to grant a permanent permission for USB access. After each reconnect, ask android for permission. It is not possible to give it permanently. Apparently, something has to be changed in the usb driver.

Thanks for this cool software!

No problem!

Unfortunately, this is an issue with Android itself. I must request permission every time the USB device is reconnected.

To quote another one of my repositories

USB Permissions Popup

Unless your ROM is modified then Android will ask permission to use your USB GPS device everytime you reconnect it

If your device is rooted, then you can follow this tutorial in order to surpress the USB permission popup system wide and grant permission everytime automatically.

If your device is not rooted, then there is nothing I can do. This is unfortunately a limitation of the android operating system. If this is for an embedded system I highly recommend rooting the device and following the tutorial.

Sorry!
