That is correct in C but will get you in trouble in Java.
I have no clue whey they made their byte-datatype signed
instead of unsigned like everbody else.
It confuses the hell out of everyone doing bitbanging.

You need to use outputStream.write(Byte.MIN_VALUE) instead of
outputStream.write(0x00)
to write e 0-byte.
