    Default Torque Pro- OBD2 (Android)

    Got this app, and was wondering if anyone else uses it. Also got my bluetooth OBD2 adapter, and was wondering what settings I should add because some of them have to be added manually.

    have you already added the pids? You need to do that so KR will work.

    OK, I wanted to do this, but after reading and research. People said that the app is not accurate enough and blue tooth is slow even with the kiwi adapter. Sorry, not trying to threadjack.

    Works great for me! Not spending a ton on HPT when I don't need it yet. My OBD2 Bluetooth adapter works perfectly. When I get on the gas it instantly reflects on the app. It reads all the sensors lol. Idk what version the people that did the reviews were using. But I'm using the latest app and v1.5 for the Bluetooth adapter. I know the earlier versions of the Bluetooth adapter had issues but not this version. It's the latest firmware for the adapter. So I give it an A+ :-D

    anyone have the link to the bluetooth adapter they are using? i bought a ELM 327 from ebay (florida seller) and its only showing one red led which im guessing means it has power but it not showing anything else.

    It only shows one red light until you connect to it. Then it lights up the other leds. Is your bluetooth on and did you program the adapter?

    I bought an ELM, it didn't work on my 03 GTP--wasted a bunch of time trying to figure it out. Then bought a Kiwi, works perfectly. And for me, its probably worth the extra $ to have the on/off switch.

    Response time is good, I use it regularly with my HTC Hero.

    I recommend it.

    Only complaint, does NOT read ABS codes. (unless someone can hip me to an update I don't have)

    Be careful with those ELM's. Alot are Chinese knock offs. It's best just to buy the Kiwi.
