Can Protobuf communicate with NanoPB

My task is to connect via bluetooth from an android device to the device running nanoPB.

I know NonoPB handles certian things like enums diffrently... Can NanoPB handle enums if they are passed? Or failing that will any of the Protobuf modes like "Lite" allow them to communicate.

All implementations of Protocol Buffers should use the same wire format, otherwise they really shouldn't be called "Protocol Buffers". The only differences are how you interact with them in your code, but the way they are encoded on the wire should be the same. So, yes, you should be able to communicate with nanoPB using any other Protobuf implementation.

(I say "should" because I haven't actually used nanoPB myself, but I would be very surprised if it didn't work.)
