That time torque wouldn't say it wasn't supported or couldn't connect, it would just crash.
My ebay adaptor randomly stops transmitting and then it starts again btw.

If you have Pandora installed that's probably causing your lock up problem. Basically there's an issue with the Bluetooth drivers that causes a conflict between Torque and Pandora, so it's your phone not the app. If not, try deleting all the Torque files off your SD card, that should fix it.

So there is a conflict with Pandora, and people blame the phone (Droid Incredible is what I have which is one of the most purchased Droids out there) or Pandora (one of the most popular apps too). I don't have lock up issues when connecting to my car stereo for BT phone operations, or to my BT headset for when I am not in *my* car, or to my BT computer connector for transferring files. The only app on my phone that has ever locked it up is Torque, but I guess that can't be it. LOL
I don't use Pandora or Torque enough to care I guess. I just noticed a lot more comments in the reviews of the free version about others having phone lock-ups but didn't see any in the paid version reviews. Again, I guess since I use the app so little, but want the additional features, I will just buy it and deal with any lock ups in the future.

lol they're that cheap? And they work for you? Hell i'll try it. Thank you for posting that up.
06-12-2011
Mine works for me but I would rather have a better one. The one I have will get my by until I can afford one of the more expensive ones.
06-13-2011
Oh ok. Thanks for the heads up.
06-13-2011
Lol wow... that cheap aye? Should return mine I paid 70 bucks for.

just my 2 cent story, so far. I bought a cheapie adapter off ebay and it won't work. it'll read RPM and ect on the initial readings screen but anything other than that it nada. I've been updating Ian's program as I go along and his obd diags either report the device can't talk to the ecm or there are data errors. 've tried it on a 98 and 05 gtp.
I'm talking with the ebay vendor trying to get them to swap it out but so far all I've gotten are more tests and questions and whatnot on the device. It's been sort of a slow process because I've been busy but hopefully my last note to them will get a return going. I paid a very few more bucks for mine but got it from a vendor in Ca rather than china thinking I might have to return it. It looks like the ones from China but it shipped from Ca.
in the end I'll probably get the plx and be done with it.

i got it working with my cheap adapter but how do i get kr to work?
07-30-2011
I bought a plx and have had NO trouble with the connection. Did they get KR working? I haven't tried it since the last upgrade.
07-30-2011
From the Torque main menu, settings, Manage extra PIDs/Sensors, menu, Add Predefined set, then go back and add a KR display in the real time data. I Like to go into the KR PID and set the max value to 10*, default is 50*
KR has been working great for a while
07-31-2011
thanks man i got it now
08-08-2011
I loaded the pid's and kr still isn't working for me anyone else have this problem or am i doing something wrong?
08-09-2011
This app is fantastic. I just got the PIDs loaded and haven't checked everything out like the KR yet but just having the information available that this shows is excellent.
I do have a question for people that are using this app. Boost..... Did you just use the stock boost or did you "adjust" it or anything. I'm just trying to determine if what I read is correct or if there needs to be an offset or something. I'm still new to my 02 GTP so I'm learning from the ground up. *EDIT* Got the boost thing figured out. Works like a CHAMP!
(FANTASTIC car by the way. I have a 2 door GTP that is apparently loaded. Had my mechanic do about $1300 worth of work to it and it runs like a DREAM. Performance mods next.....)

Mayoke was there anything you had to do to adjust the boost?
08-11-2011
I didn't do anything except change the gauge type. The circular needle gauge seemed to give me odd readings but when I went to a digital numbers gauge, it seems right.
08-11-2011
Try sending a Comms Debug log to Ian, make sure to include your email address so he can get back to you.
08-11-2011
Delete all gauges
Delete all PIDs
update torque
readd PIDs
readd gauges
----
that should fix majority of KR reading problems
some cheapie ebay ones work and others don't. mine works AWESOME in about half a dozen cars so far. It just won't seem to pull KR or knock count from my dad's 02 cadillac deville but whoopie doo...works fine on the park ane and other 3800's so that's all i care
08-12-2011
ok thanks guys i'll try this later
