Android datalogger?

**Ange** · 11-01-2012, 04:12 PM

anyone tried it? it would be for obd2

since the androids are so powerful nowdays I think it's a good idea.

Since I need a new phone anyways I thought why not get something like a LG Optimus G or Samsung GT-N7105 with 5" screen and be able to use it as a datalogger.

I have a ELM327 connector. The cheap Bluetooth ones suck, but the one that connects via USB to my phone works great. It stays connected and can do a lot. I mainly used it before to clear codes until I replaced my o2 sensors.

I have the same one as Pete, works great, although I use the paid app not the free one. It also works great on my vr4 in sig...

Weird, maybe mine is defective. I use Torque Pro, but don't have OBD2 for the VR4. Was using it on my eclipse.

It is possible the phone was having a hard time with baud rates over Bluetooth. My USB one works great so I just use that one.
