Referencing ports on Android? #1048
-
|
I installed rnsh on an Android device and it works successfully via AutoInterface. I did this through Termux command line. If I try to use a USB connected RNode, I am stuck trying to figure out how to reference the port for the RNode. Is this even possible to do? I figure its possible since Sideband is already doing it in the background. I'm using a Samsung device but also have the ability to use a Google Pixel. I do understand this hasn't been developed for Android so this is very experimental, but it would be a cool feature imo. Thanks in advance! |

No, actually stuff like this is fully supported - I use it myself often ;) Termux itself cannot access USB ports or BLE, so you will have to have Sideband host the main RNS instance on the system, and then have any RNS program running in Termux use that. In that way, you can use Make sure "Share RNS Instance" is enabled in "Connectivity" in Sideband, then copy the RPC key from Sideband, and paste it into the RPC key config option in To verify it's working, try running |

rnshover RNode from Termux.Make sure "Share RNS Instance" is enabled in "Connectivity" in Sideband, then copy the RPC key from Sideband, and paste it into the RPC key config option in
~/.reticulum/configinside Termux.To verify it's working, try running
rnstatus. You should see full interface status output, including any connected RNode.
