Clover Android SDK Mini USB disconnect/reconnect issue

Hi David,


Happy new year! Hope you’ve enjoyed the break.

I'm working on developing semi-integration from my Android POS to clover mini through USB connection.

Every thing is going well, I'm just completing some negative testing.


Please see the below

  • Completing a successful transaction @ 21:42:55.
  • USB disconnected @ 21:43:06.
  • POS reconnect attempts via SDK every 3 seconds. Initially returning the expected ‘USB Pay Display not found’ as the device is still disconnected.
  • USB reconnected @ 21:43:21.
  • SDK fails to reconnect ‘Permission denied’.
  • Device is not connected at this stage and transactions will fail


I've also tried the below without the above reconnect attempts every 3 seconds.


1.) When the cable is removed I receive a callback for "[OnDeviceDisconnected] Clover device has disconnected. which I do I log this event and take no further action.

2.) When The cable is reattached. I should receive another callback for "[OnDeviceConnected] Device is connecting. but don't receive this call back.


Could you advise how I should implement reconnect logic on android SDK when USB cable is disconnected and reconnected.


Thanks in Advance

You should not be implementing custom reconnect logic, the SDK will do that for you.

Can you explain what you are doing? It isn't clear to me whether you you are relying on the reconnect logic within the SDK or trying to do something custom. Can you tell us a little bit more about the permission denied error (do you have logs from your device for example?).
