Hello all,

Here is how i was able to access , read , write to sysfs from an android 
application .

Ramdisk / device specific changes 

#init.{hardware}.rc

> chown root root /dev/ttymxc4
> chmod 0777 /dev/ttymxc4

> 142
> write /sys/class/gpio/gpio142/edge "both"

> #ueventd.{hardware}.rc
> +/dev/ttymxc* 0666 system system

Then using JNI i was able to access uart and gpio pin . 
Here are both application source code
UART: https://github.com/sooorajjj/BluemoonUART 
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https://github.com/sooorajjj/BluemoonUART&sa=D&source=hangouts&ust=1527226851456000&usg=AFQjCNGparXoQ2yPbiFH74V9DUo9uXzIVA>
GPIO: https://github.com/sooorajjj/BluemoonGPIO
Note these application were not created by me , its available as example on 
google i just had to make a few changes for it to work on my device .

GPIO led blink example and reading input from button is what i have tested 
and works.
UART reading and writing using serial console works .
