Android Question (solved, with 1 question) Intent for connected USB-keyboard

Deleted member 103 · May 15, 2015

Hi all,

Is there an intent-filter that tells me if a USB-keyboard is connected?

I found this, but does not say that it is a USB keyboard.

B4X:

"android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED"

Now I know how to do that.
For me, it's enough!

B4X:

    If StartingIntent.Action="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED" Then
        ToastMessageShow("USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED:" & StartingIntent.GetExtra("mManufacturerName"), True)
    Else If StartingIntent.Action="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_DETACHED" Then
        ToastMessageShow("USB_DEVICE_DETACHED:" & StartingIntent.GetExtra("mManufacturerName"), True)
    End If

B4X:

Log("USB_DEVICE_DETACHED:" & StartingIntent.ExtrasToString))

The line shows approximately:

B4X:
USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED:Bundle[{device=UsbDevice[mName=/dev/bus/usb/002/002,mVendorId=16700,mProductId=8455,mClass=0,mSubclass=0,mProtocol=0,mManufacturerName=Dell,mProductName=Dell USB Entry Keyboard,mSerialNumber=Null,mConfigurations=[[/QUOTE]
and this line

B4X:

Log(StartingIntent.GetExtra("mManufacturerName")) -> null

How can I get the "mManufacturerName" ?
