If I connect an XBee device (e.g. XBee S2B) to an Android smartphone (as USB host) using a USB XBee adapter module, will I be able to communicate over the XBee network using serial communications from an Android app?

  • Ask the manufacturer of the xbee device and/or the manufacturer of the xbee adapter module. – CommonsWare Oct 08 '16 at 19:50
  • Well I've tagged my question as xbee and android, so hopefully someone here will know or have experience of doing something similar. – Slicc Oct 09 '16 at 05:23

Well I've managed to get hold of an old broken XBee, but it works well enough to indicate that it has power and has a flashing light when serial data is received. I plugged it into a galaxy s6, downloaded an Android app to create a serial connection and it looks like it does work. Power light is on, and the rx,tx lights flash as expected.
