There are ways in Linux to give a program access to a port below 1024 without giving it root access -- at least in node.js running on a ubuntu version of Linux there is.? In order to give node the ability to run a webserver on port 80 without giving it root privileges, I have to run the following commands:
sudo apt install libcap2-bin
sudo setcap cap_net_bind_service=+ep /usr/local/bin/node
Not sure of the details of why it works.? I just know it does.
I am sure there is something similar for Android.? But unless Crestron gives you root access to their OS, there is no way for us to install that package.
