So the Photon can be used as a Cell Phone Dongle! That is fairly cool, except useless unless we can control it. So I thought I would look into a Phonegap (Cordova) App. Of course nothing is easy.
do these serial communication proticals mean anything to you?
CdcAcmSerialDriver
Ch34xSerialDriver
Cp21xxSerialDriver
FtdiSerialDriver
ProlificSerialDriver
The USB ANdroid App I used above on my Android Phone mentions these proticals:
The ARDUINO Supports(FTDI, CDC/ACM)
Looks like the best bet is FTDI but I am not sure.

I am now trying to get the usb serial stuff working from Phonegap using this blog.
and for particle I found out that the VID and PID was
vid: ‘2b04’,
pid: ‘c006’
using some App called USB DEVICE INFO
which is relevant at the cordovarduino serial plugin site at
Everything seems to work but I just can’t get any serial communication going. The App even connects. Any suggestions?
