FTDI chip used by Android 2.3.6 Is it possible to use FTDI chip with Android 2.3.6? I've found an application which works with FTDI chip, but it uses Android 3.1 and later.

I'd like connect my phone to peripheral hardware over UART. This company provides the FTDI chip which can be used for it, and they provide an application (see above), but it's only for Android 3.1 and later. I'd like to use it with Android 2.3.6, but I think it's missing Android Open Accessory Protocol which is needed for it. Is there is another possibility to connect it to peripheral hardware?
I think It's possible. But you need to port the sourcecode to support 2.3.6 API. You need install Google API Add On and follow the steps posted in android development page http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/usb/accessory.html

I think the sourcecode could be found in FTDI webpage.
