GSM GPRS Module native integration on Raspberry 3 with Android Things

Question

I would like to know if there is any way to make a GPRS / GSM module (SIM800L) as a "default" connection in android things that allows browsing the internet and making requests using the Android libraries.

Answer 1

This is possible. I have been able to integrate SIM800L TO RPI3 running Android Things via UART and AT commands. I am however using it for sending SMS and not for Internet connectivity. I do not see an issue in achieving that as well.

Hope this answers your question.
