Mosquitto broker or Termux app ?
please go to this link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux&hl=en_IN and check your device compatible or not.
Your device run on Android 4.3 but Termux Requires Android 5.0 and up.
Could you advise how to auto run mosquitto on android 4.4 Kitkat on start up in background.
If you want to run a script/start a daemon/similar when you start your device then you can look into https://github.com/termux/termux-boot#termuxboot which aims at helping with this.
How would I compile Mosquitto or any MQTT broker (not client) in an AOSP build ? any idea ?
Yes, you can. But I never used mqtt broker for AOSP build. So i have no idea right now. I will inform you if i used.
Hello. Can You tell me where i can find broker IP address. I can’t connect to the broker. Best regards.
Hello,

Galaxy Tab 2 10.1)?
Thanks.
Yes, sure
