Here's a quick video of the dta droid being used as a main dashboard on a tablet. Really hope to have more features in the future like mpg and warnings that are user configurable.

DTADroid won't run on that one, as it's Windows. The tablet needs to be Android.

Hi, I'm writing because I have a trouble with a DTAdroid BT adapter.
First, a decription of what I did: I'm using a S60 ECU. I routed the pins from the SUB-D 15 connector to both my serial/USB adapter to work and tune with my laptop, and on a SUB-D 9 connector for the BT adapter.
What I wanted was: to be able to connect with my laptop, and with Bluetooth, in the same time.
So, my troubles are:
-when I plug the BT adapter, I lose the communication with the laptop. (if I unplug the BT, it works)
-I can detect the BT adapter with my phone. I made the association, so DTADroid connects to the ECU, but all the data are frozen to 0.
I checked the pining of all connectors, and set the configuration of RS232 data stream (the header bytes number 10, the header size 99 for all)

So, my questions:
-does someone have an idea of why data are not sent to BT adapter?
-is the configuration of dividing the TX, RX and ground lines to 2 separate connectors OK or disturbing?

Thanks

You can divide the outputs, but only connect one device at a time; this includes the serial to USB adapter, it must be unplugged.
You can't connect two at the same time.

If you want to run two devices at the same time, you would need some hardware to split one input into two outputs.
