correct, this new cable will support all non-root and root android devices, ANY and all Android Devices using a standard mini usb or standard micro usb cable. The cable is on pre-order special for just $57, so get yours now with the EvoScan Android GPSNav with the EvoDroid7 you get a license key to run the EvoScan Android software and new OpenPort 1.3DA/3.0DA cables on all your android devices you own. I will be getting the EvoDroid7 Kit delivered to everyone first, then will look at options for selling parts individually like cables and software.

Holly **** Hamish its about d@mn time!! Lol, I am soo stoked right now for this! Ordering this right now. Is there a auto turn on and run of evoscan on power? I have to say that I truly love this no hassle approach! I loved my old GPSnav until it died on me after A LOT of continuous use!

In for for updates. To preorder the 1.3DA cable do we need to buy the tablet also? I have a Galaxy Tab2 7 and would like to use just the software and the cable.

Pre-Ordered mine with the new 1.3DA cable. I 'think' I understood that this new unit doesn't yet have reflash support? but at some point in the future it will? I use my current Windows based GPSNav as an emergency flash tool in case I get stuck somewhere where e85 isn't available. If I run low on e85, I don't have to rely on packing my laptop around to get home, just drive to the nearest pump, flash my 92 octane tune, then fill up.

What kind of timeline are we looking at?

Thanks

Any reason you haven't installed Dynotech's map switching harness? This way you don't have to reflash you ECU, you can just flip a switch into order to switch between your 93 and E85 maps.

This new cable is like none other before it. It is on pre-order special at just $57USD each, I would just buy this new android cable, and use the reflashing cable only when needed, so that you don't wear out your expensive openport 2.0 cable.

Take note the DA on the end of the new 1.3DA and 3.0DA cables refers to Datalogger / Android. There is the possibility of using these cables also for reflashing, I will send out more detail on this later.

Nice! Exactly the information I wanted to know. So with the pre order we'll get a license for the Android/Evoscan Software... Will Pre Order one as soon as paycheck comes in! I cannot wait!

Thanks Bink for pointing me in this direction, I just spent 20 mins reading up on alt maps. Not sure how I overlooked the ability to switch maps based on an external toggle switch. Seeing it was so easy to just reflash with the GPSNav I wasn't interested enough in random posts I ran into about alt maps to chase up details.

I'll definately put this on my todo list, looks easy enough to do.

Thanks,
John-

Using one of the 4 input/outputs of the EvoScan 1.3DA or 3.0DA cable, and EvoDroid7 you could press a button on the screen and it would switch maps for you!

I'd have to agree, but we don't want to go there and ruin this thread by having Apple/Android bashing. Just think we are lucky that the Android version for once comes before the Apple version.

Back on topic, if you have a spare 1.3DA cable prior to their individual release, I'd love one in New Plymouth Hamish.

Can this be adapted to work on a smaller display, e.g., a 4.3" display smartphone? Would like to have something I can store in my glovebox and pull out when needed.

the EvoDroid7 fits in my glovebox easily face down, and I even have torches and tools and all sorts in there too.
