Hi All,
I'm new here, but I purchased an Evodroid based on a careful assessment of the advice from this forum. However, mine does not work. While the device connects to the OpenPort 3.0DA connector (debugging enabled), it fails to initialize the ECU (evodroid software reports reconnecting, but never is able to). It also suggests to power off/on car etc, have done that and many other combos.
Has anyone had this problem, does anyone have any advice? After almost 6 weeks of very sporadic/limited support, it's in the process of being returned tomorrow if I can't figure it out. I was really keen to get this item working... however unfortunately for whatever reason, its not working for me. :-(
I have an EVOX MR SST 2011. Are there any other options available for the EVO where I can have a similar setup to Evodroid? Ive had a look at other devices, but I'm not sure which ones are Mitsu Evo X compatible.
regards
Dev

Make sure you fully exit the app and restart after you select a new config.

My Evodroid has worked for the last 3 week now and all of a sudden its not able to connect with an error message "Re-plug in the OpenPort Cable". The green light on the 1.3DA lights up when ignition is switched on. So is there a problem with my 1.3DA connector?? Or an issue with the Evoscan app on Evodroid.

Does anyone have an AEM UEGO with serial output working to the Evodroid? I haven't been able to get mine to work yet. I get a reading of -999 and an error about the value being out of range or something.
I have an AEM uego, I will plug it in and see if I can make it work a bit better.
do anyone have the link to the APK that comes with the evodroid? I bought mine used and i didnt get the link and im trying to update the software. Hamish hasnt gotten back to me so i figures i would search out help from the forums. You can PM me the link if you dont wanna publicly post it here.

I think (hope) that this (software) will improve to include reflashing etc.
The tablet is not great but works. I get the impression that the cost of the tablet allows the R&D on the cable and software to be recouped as the cable / software is where the real power lies.
I have replaced the tablet with a Galaxy Tab and it works fine with higher resolution.
I am disappointed that the swapping between templates does not work (yet) as sometimes I would like a full layout and other times a basic layout without having to rename them to 'Carbon1'
In some ways going for traditional gauges is a better option but the Evodroid does provide a degree of flexibility.
The flashing ABS light is annoying but it is only when stopped...

That's an easy one (but not as easy as you may think :-)
It needs to be done on the template - you build a background that has a 0-200 MPH scale but the start and end values are set to 0-321.86 in the template txt file
So the template is reading KMH but is displaying MPH...
The logging will still show KMH.

This is a bit of a workaround but it is the same process as if you were displaying output from a 0-5v sensor
