Hello,

I am using the FT2232H chip in an Android (linux) environment.  I am working 
with the latest libftdi (version 1.2), libusb (version 1.0).

I have built the code as a static library for Android and written an example 
program.  I am using port B on the chip for serial communications.  I can set 
the baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits and this all works.  I can send and 
receive test patterns.  I am testing this on FT2232H Mini-Module purchased from 
FTDI.

My problem is in using hardware flow control with RTS and CTS.  The RTS output 
is always high, which prevents data from coming.  If I jumper RTS and CTS 
together, no data flows because of this.  If I simply ground CTS, I can send 
and receive data in loop back.  I have a USBee AX logic analyzer running on a 
separate laptop to see all the lines and their states.

I have changed the example program many times with several different 
combinations of API functions, changed order of API functions, etc.  Nothing 
seems to help.

I know my hardware works because I can use the same module on MacBook and Linux 
using the D2XX library from FTDI and hardware flow control works exactly like 
it should.    I tried to copy exactly the same API functions and order of 
calling from D2XX to libftdi but this also has the same problem.

I am using libftdi because it supports current Android software.   Current D2XX 
libraries are not available for Android, so I can't use a 64-bit environment (a 
requirement for me).

Please let me know what I should be looking at or what other information you 
would like me to provide.  I don't know which way to go to solve this.
