Unfortunately, I have had some issues being able to set up proper "dashboards" in app, or being able to see the individual sensor's, so if anybody has good information on that... | | | 07-02-2015, 10:21 PM | #9 | That's not Millpoint Blue Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: BNA Posts: 3,161 | I only plugged the unit into the OBD port and idled the engine, so I didn't test the accelerometer or speed stuff, but.... These apps at least function: - Torque Lite (function-reduced demo)
- OBD Car Doctor
- DashCommand (limited time demo)
There are many more apps to choose from. BRADESTAR... with Torque Lite, i was able to add "displays" pretty easily. What's not working for you? Perhaps it's an issue with your phone? I'm using a Samsung S5 __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!

What's not working for you? Perhaps it's an issue with your phone? I'm using a Samsung S5 | You bring up a good point. I've been running it on an old original Nexus tab that sits in a drawer in the shop for only this purpose. Maybe I aught to put it on my recent phone. Not sure if I can explain the confusion that I have trying to find the individual sensors to read. I just remember having problems trying to find my O2 sensors when I needed to. Also, seems like a pain to set up the Dashboards. Felt like there should be more pre-loaded or something. I used it mainly trouble shooting and it worked great for that. I've heard good things, but damned if I can figure it out. Although, that's not new... | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
