In any case, I do not think you should rely on this fork, the base
version of libusb 1.0.9 is too old.

In that case,your issue has nothing to do with libusb. libusb is only
for the host side. But your Android device is not the host in this
mode. You should forget about libusb in this case.

You'd better debug your host device.
