No data display after update to new version

Affected Updates:

  • V1.2.7 -> V1.2.8
  • V1.3.2 -> V1.3.3

Between above versions the assignment of settings "Data items to display" to PIDs has changed. If you see an empty data list with status connected, please clear application data (Settings -> Apps -> AndrOBD -> Clear data) and re-try

Bluetooth disconnected right after initialisation / connection attempt

There are several cheap, chinese ELM327 clone adapters out there which behave rather strange on new connection attempts. They loose bluetooth connection with the issue of an ATZ initialization comand.

Workaround

There is a workaround for this problem, to disable issuing the ATZ command at initialisation. This prevents the corruption of bluetooth connection by the adapter and makes the adapter usable.

For detailed description please see posts / comments on Issue #52
