Bluefruit ez-link with Android.
I have a bluefruit ez-link connected to a raspberry pi's UART on the GPIO, and want to be able to access the console from android. I am able to access it from my macbook by using the screen command. However whenever I use a Bluetooth serial console application on my phone it just stays blank, even after sending a new line. Any ideas on any specific app to use, or why it is not working with most apps?

Re: Bluefruit ez-link with Android.
Try opening the UART on the Raspberry Pi at 9600 baud exactly. There's a known issue with the EZ-Link serial connecting to Android and the automatic baud detection not working. To work around you need to set the baud rate when talking to the EZ link from your Pi/Arduino/etc. to 9600 baud. Give that a shot and let me know if you have issues.
