Android Market??

[Audi Parts Guru]

Gents,

I've just recently treated myself to a nice new Sony Ericsson Arc mobile and I'm wondering if any of you out there are familiar with the Android platform and all the various apps on the market

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I've heard this is good:-

I've been looking for a good, free, dyno app, anybody know one?

Also just bought a Sony X10 mini pro, awesome bit of kit.

Torque by Ian Hawkins is on Googles app market. It requires a ELM327 bluetooth obd interface to operate and is in many ways similar to Vagcom.It is available free to test but only costs €3.32 for the full app.The interface can be bought on Ebay.

got an X10, was gutted sony pulled support for them within a year of introduction, but everyone slated them on sonys own blog, so now its getting updated to android 2.3 later this year.
First thing id put on it is an app killer, save your battery!

Juice Defender is another good one for saving your battery
3G watchdog is useful to watch your internet usage
Tapatalk for the Forum
F1.com app if you're into that, live timings etc
Advanced App Killer is best one i've found
CardioTrainer is a good one if you like fitness, can map your runs etc

Theres lots!

Does it work with our ecu?

[willg54]

Don't think it will, its for obd2

Might be able to pull some data. Would need to use the VAGCOM 2x2->OBD adapter before the OBD->Bluetooth.

If it doesn't work on the S2, I could always measure the performance of the A2

So any recommended ebay seller?

I bought one of these bluetooth interfaces:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=180652421197 £21.99 + £4.00 postage to Europe.

You can buy them on UK Ebay direct from China and Hong Kong,at a much lower price,but I would suspect with little chance of service if something goes wrong.

When it arrives I will test it with an OBD to 2+2 adaptor cable on my urquattro 20v.

I have read that bluetooth can be a bit slow for some things and wifi is better. I know there is this product for apple:

I dont know if it requires specific software to run or if it might work with android or not too. I think you can get things similar to the above link in wifi too.
