Hello,
As my first project in the microcontroller world, I want to set up a Teensy 3.2 as a Pinball Controller for my Android Tablet (Android 8.1), following the instructions here. I edited the Code a bit, so that Zen Pinball can be used on an Android Device.
View attachment Pinball_Android.ino
I connetcetd the buttons on a breadboard, and the setup was working in Windows Notepad (Shift/Return-Keys were pressed and released) as well as in Zen Pinball on my Android Tablet.
The only problem were some loose conections bewtween the Teensy and the Header Pins, which were not soldered.
So I got a friend to solder the pins to the Teensy, and the result looks fine to me, see the picture below.
Now to my problem:
Except for the soldering, I have not changed a thing in the whole setup. But now the Teensy is not detected as a Keyboard in Android, and button presses on my controller won't do anything in Zen Pinball or other Apps (Text Editor). The Teensy gets power, both the internal and external LED are on.
In Windows Notepad, the button presses get detected as the intended Keystrokes and everything works fine.
I tried multiple OTG adapters, USB cables and Android Devices, but so far I can't get this to work.
Thank you for any help
