Configuring i2c on a Raspberry Pi2 - i2c

I am trying to connect a Temp and Humi probe Adafruit AM2315 and it seams that the only thing I need to do is to get i2c running on my Pi2. I can't seams to find the proper instructions or command line to get it config and running ? Can someone help ?

did you connect it directly to the RPi2 I2C pins, or did you use the 10KOhm resistors too..?
It seems it needs two rapid connections to wake up first, before starting to send commands, see here:

How could I make the raspberry pi as a WIFI and ssh module

For a digital design course, we have to use a microcontroller as the CPU of the system. The chip we plan to use is STM32L0C8T6. We want to integrate the SSH function into a keyboard. The way we plan to do it is to connect the STM32 with a Raspberry pi zero or 2 through UART or SPI. The Pi will connect to the WIFI and connect to other hosts through SSH. An LCD display is also connected to the STM32 which will work like the monitor, displaying all things you will see when ssh, like whatever is shown in the terminal when ssh.
My question is how to build the connection between the terminal and STM32. One possible way is to dump everything in the terminal into a file and send the file back to STM32 for display. I think this will be really slow. Are there any better ideas?
The question sounds wired, and I know we could connect LCD directly to the Pi, but this is the project requirement to have to follow. The LCD has to connect to the microcontroller.
Thank you so much!!!!

I'm not getting RX from a bluetooth PAN network I setup with my raspberry pi and another device. How can I debug?

I have one device that is bluetooth PAN capable and had success with a different raspberry pi. I think I messed up the configuration files on this new one but didn't change them before I enabled some process that I beleive created the pan0 network interface (seen in ifconfig). This is the guide I used "prog.world/raspberry-pi-pan" and I think I put in the wrong Address in /etc/systemd/network/pan0.network. I later tried to alter that interface with "ifconfig pan0 <actual IP 192.168 address that I assume is correct>. I tried to connect again and still am not recieving any info but I get confirmation that the connection is up and running on both sides. Could there be a way to restart or edit something to fix this? Look at the guide I mentioned above. Not sure how this all works after I make the config network files but it might have happened when I did the "sudo systemctl enable" command for systemd-networkd, bt-agent, and bt-network. Maybe there is another file I need to change the IP on?

UART serial access with Rpi 3

I am trying to establish a serial connection between the RPI3 and an Arduino. Because that wasn't working I connected a USB to TTY cable from my laptop to the Rx/Tx pins of RPI. I was eventually able to use PuTTy to connect to it.
I am running Android Things on the RPI and the android code I have running is supposed to be a loopback (reading from UART and writing back what was read).
Here is where I am confused....
When PuTTy connected I was presented with a command line console on the RPI.
How do I get the Rx/Tx pins on the RPI to just be serial connections into and from my application and NOT a way to log into the console?
Is that a bad idea? I suppose if I ever needed to log into the RPI this would make it more difficult...
I figured out what I was doing wrong...
When following the setup directions at the below site I was using the Bluetooth mode instead of the Application mode. When I followed the directions for Application mode I was able to start using UART0 for serial comms
Set the console attribute to the following in cmdline.txt:
console=tty0
Add the following line in config.txt:
dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt
Remove the following lines from config.txt:
enabled_uart=1
core_freq=400
https://developer.android.com/things/hardware/raspberrypi.html#disabling_the_console
Beginning with Developer Preview 3, in which USB-Serial devices support added, You can use external USB-UART dongles like this instead of UART of Raspberry Pi 3.

Passive WiFi detection system using WiFi router

As part of my project requirement I want to make a system which will detect all the WiFi devices in my router range either its connected or not, I did some research on it then I found something like wireshark ,kismate etc I just tried the wireshark by making my Mac machine's WiFi as an adhoc network and its all fine I am able to list all the WiFi devices in wireshark, now I want to make a real-time system based on a real WiFi router I don't know how I will configure my router using my PC and how I will monitor the router from my PC , one more thing if I am using this wireshark how I will use this data for my requirement. If any one worked with similar scenarios please help me..thanks in advance
To do that you will need more than the usual API that you have on commercial WiFi routers (by that I mean a full SSH access). I would:
flash my router with OpenWRT (you can search for your router on this page for detailed instructions)
Install the aircrack-ng suite on the flashed router with
opkg update
opkg install aircrack-ng
Put my WiFi card in monitor mode and run the airodump service:
airmon-ng start wlan0 #Put your NIC in monitor mode
airodump-ng mon0 #Sniff surrounding packets
You don't necessarily have to install aircrack-ng, you can just put your card in monitor mode using command line (look at the documentation for your WiFi driver) and then run tcpdump (command line equivalent to wireshark) but aircrack works very well and has a nice format.
Also, I should warn you that you can brick your router by flashing it. I never had such a problem when flashing router mentioned on the OpenWRT wiki and there are (most of the times) ways to restore a bricked router depending on the brand but I am not responsible if you break it ;)

How to Stream data over TCP to a Windows 7 laptop?

Im acquiring data from a sensor using RaspberryPi. Now the idea is to get the data streaming over an ethernet link to my Windows 7 laptop and do the monitoring and recording on the laptop. Can I get some advice on how to implement this in C/C++.
The idea is to get the signal from a sensor streamed to a Windows GUI.
You can push data from your raspberry PI to you Windows
You can have some sort of service on your Windows box and your raspberry PI can push information to your software running on your Windows.
or
you can pull data from your raspberry PI to you Windows
In this case, raspberry PI would be a passive provider and Windows would ask for data.
Hard to give you more information without more details but basically you decide who is going to the passive and active and program that way.
I personally would request data from the raspberry PI to Windows as I can have my service running and just update when I need instead of having my service running and suddenly have my data changing.
That said, it's hard to say without more details.
You need to tell what kind of programming language are you going to use.
According to your question, you need to dig into socket programming.
Recently,I linked my two Raspberry-Pi by writing a python script to establish a TCP connection between them.
and there is this protocol called "RTSP(Real Time Streaming Protocol)" to (as the name says) stream data in real-time.
(If you are to use python , there is this module called gst-python for streaming).
I think the above infos would give you where to start.
