2)fails in Both APK compiled AND under hollywood player
3)old stuff done with hollywood 9 still works
4) compiling applet with hollywood 9 , and trying under player10 fails
5) compiling applet with hollywood 9 and trying with player 9.1 , works as expected, both simple and more complicated

Ok, this is probably because of some elevated security restrictions in Android because there weren't any changes in the Android serial code from Hollywood 9 to 10 so it must be some security thing in Android blocking serial access. I'll check.

- Fix [Android]: The serial library was completely broken in Hollywood 10
