I have a bluetooth obd2 connector I use with my torque app on my android phone to diagnose vehicles. It has an option for me to add additional PIDs/sensors.  The field asks for the mode and PID in hex.  does this mean I can log LDrxn for example?

okay, so that's what PID stands for. Forgive me but I don't know what to do with that information.  Does requested load have a hex address I could enter? Is there a table of hex addresses for each parameter?

You have the very easiest car in the world to log. Use me7logger. Torque can not log the necessary ram addresses to provide the proper data, and the OBD PID's are insufficient for any tuning.

You will have to use the 38400 baud rate in order to not drop connection while logging.

Let me know if you need help with setting it up. Cheers!

Is there anyway to do this with my S5?

I would love to log on my phone, the Torque App is poor at logging I use it on other peoples cars when they have problems and I need a quick look at some data.

Also, I wondered too how add extra PID's for the app. I used there Torque Scan app to try and find extra PID's but I left my phone connected charging in my car for over 3.5hrs and it was still scanning. I'm told now it could take upto 4 or 5 hrs.

I use an old ebay cable with a $2 OTG adapter like this:
http://www.ncix.com/detail/android-robot-micro-otg-usb-f5-102299-1246.htm

- Arm based CPU you'll need to run qemu-user to emulate the i386 instructions in user land (I tried it on a Raspberry Pi and the performance was pretty bad).
- Intel Atom CPU like the Asus ME176C I have works great but requires a few dynamically linked libraries from a standard x86 Linux distribution

Basically, it works best if you have:

- Atom based hardware
- Running linux kernel 3.10.20 (Android 4.4 kickat)
- Device is rooted (have access to root)
- OTG cable or adapter

I can provide the files I use if you guys are still interested Smiley

Whoa this is great.  I have a spare Note 2 I can use for this.  Can you make more detailed list of steps needed? And yes, files!
