Answer 1

I answered this here, although I gather that duplicates across other SE sites are permitted.

In answer to why, it is as you surmised in said thread; because with your hardware you get different identifiers each time you connect, e.g. /dev/bus/usb/001/, /dev/bus/usb/002/ and so on.

Answer 2

This is a dup of USB device access pop-up supression?. Basically the answer is to use an intent-filter on USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED and steer clear of the RequestPermission USB Host Mode API call.

Answer 3

The Android just cannot remember my grant for my device But fortunately, I figured out the reason: I used hex values in the device_filter.xml. After I changed it to decimal values, everything just works fine. My Android can remember my permit then.
