Hi Everybody,
I am working with B80 starter kit 3G evaluation module .I want to know is this module compatible with
android OS.Can I use it with android tablet .If yes which android tablets are compatible with this evaluation module?
Hi,
Gemalto M2M can provide you the RIL and Android driver for the most of the modules and the integration manual with Android OS.
In your question I miss the used module.
the B80 evaboard has a usb and serial to usb ports. Both can be used with android.
The way to obtain the drivers and documentation is to contact your local Gemalto M2M representative.
Please, LEt me know your country and I will forward your request to the responsible in your area.
Regards

Hello,
the starter kit itself is hardware and the driver is releated to the mounted module only. Which module is used on the starter kit?
May be the linux kernel has to be configured to support the 3G module. This has been done on a PandaBoard.
The configuration for the PandaBoard Kernel is defined in this file:
$/kernel/arch/arm/configs/panda_defconfig
To support Cinterion modules it is necessary to enable the following Kernel options/drivers. The following options will include the driver into the Kernel (build-in):
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_GENERIC=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_OPTION=y
CONFIG_USB_ACM=y
CONFIG_USB_WDM=y
... for USB-to-Serial Adapter support check this:
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_FTDI_SIO=y
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_PL2303=y
... for PPP support check this:
CONFIG_PPP=y
CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC=y
CONFIG_PPP_SYNC_TTY=y
CONFIG_PPPOE=y
CONFIG_*******=y
CONFIG_PPPOL2TP=y
USB Driver
This file should be already up to date and contain Cinterion Vendor and Product ID
kernel\drivers\usb\serial\option.c
Hope this helps

I started out with nothing... I still have most of it.
