Description

  • termux-api package version: 0.58.0-1
  • termux-api application version: 0.50.1
  • Android OS version: 14
  • Device model: SM-S908E (Galaxy S22 ultra)

I am seeing that a command of termux-usb -l takes quite long time (around 30 seconds) before outputing the result. I also tested on other phone (Redmi 6 Pro - Android 8.1), this command showed the output very fast.
Could you please take a look on this?
Thanks,

Research direction

Start by running termux-usb -l on Android 14 and compare its roughly 30-second delay with the fast result reported on Android 8.1. Trace the implementation behind the termux-usb command in the termux-api project. Done means identifying and resolving the Android 14-specific delay while preserving device listing behavior.
