Anyone has used torque with ca-fi?
Other android based head units?
parrot asteroid?

looks like their lower end unit released the beginning of this month with a 800Mhz core and 256mb ram, i ran torque with my orginal moto droid without issues so i would think this unit would handle it fine but it most likely does have alot of other services running like radio, gps, etc

i’m really interested in this unit since my streak 7 dash install hasn’t gone well but currently there are no reviews or video’s of this unit in action and they are speculated to release a 1.2Ghz 512mb ram version in the spring…i have a hard time throwing down 0 on something new and untested but the temptation is high.

one thing i would like to be able to do with a dedicated unit like this is setup a maint schedule and history using the odometer reading and other sensors for things like fluids, brakes, etc.

i’d love to learn and do something like that myself, i’d just have to find and take the time to do it. i’d essentially be learning and starting from scratch. maybe once i finish my spring school semester i’ll jump in and start learning the ways

by the way i just took the dive and ordered the 620 unit…it’ll either be the best or worst 800 i’ve ever spent but i’ll let you know once it comes in and can make a review/test it for you

updated with a first boot video, i just got the market added with torque and a few other customizations, i’ll be doing a more in depth review later

There’s an update due out anytime from tomorrow onwards which adds baud rate support to the USB adapters (which basically means it will then support all of them)

It supports all of them now, but if you’re using a clone adpater you will need to setup the baudrate to 115200 in the eeprom(permanent) memory of the adapter before the app will see it. The scantool OBDLink usb adapter will just work however

Hi!

The update is now out which now supports baud rate selection for USB adapters

no unfortunately due to the way they were forced to integrate the bluetooth chip in order for hands free calling to work the bluetooth is only good for streaming audio and hands free communication and is unable to connect to OBDII bluetooth devices.

however with the recent USB update this shouldn’t be a problem, i have yet to purchase a USB adapter but should be picking one up soon to test this out.

Hi

Keep the USB adapter – it will work with the unit, but there needs to be some work done in the app first, for USB in android 2.2 support (though USB in android 3.1 above will work fine)

came across this video: http://youtu.be/x7hz306woVQ
and saw that there was an update for select 2.2 devices so i gave my USB adapter another shot the other day, however i haven’t been successful so far.

i hooked into both the rear and front USB ports and tested several different baud rates with the same results, the power lights up but none of the others ever light. Torque does recognize the CA-FI USB setup, i still have to try it with my laptop.

the baud rate is the ping with the adapter correct? i believe it should be 38400 as several others have mentioned with these ebay clones, here is mine:http://www.ebay.com/itm/V1-5-ELM327-USB-OBDII-OBD2-CAN-BUS-Car-Diagnostic-Scanner-Tool-/320883505146?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab625b7fa

after changing baud rate it asks you to disconnect and re-connect, i’m assuming it’s requiring you to unplug and reconnect the adapter to the USB and restart the program as i’ve read in other posts.

ah gotcha my bad, guess i’m a little antsy lol.
