Connected but no data is displayed in the app

[cfabio]

I am trying to use this app to get data from my car using a Vgate iCar 2 ELM327 WiFi OBD2 device.
It connects just fine but then nothing appears in the app, if I click in the menu on "get OBD data", "OBD vehicle info" or anything else I only get blank pages.
Any clue on how I can make this work?

Edit: I tried debugging with logcat but there is literally nothing interesting in the log even I select the most verbose logging option.

Thank you for your report.

Please could you send me the log? It is stored in files as described here: https://github.com/fr3ts0n/AndrOBD/wiki/Reporting-improvements---issues

Thx

I missed that part or the wiki.
He is the log, there are indeed a few errors reported in the logs: AndrOBD.log.4.txt

Thanks for the log. Based on your log file, your problem looks very similar to the report of issue #70 (which I haven't received any details / log yet) It appears that you also use WIFI Elm adapter on Android 9.

Now that I have some details on this, I'll check into that.

The phone I am trying this on actually runs lineageos 15.1 which is android 8.1.0

I don't have any V8.1 / V9 Hardware device yet, but I could reproduce the problem with android V9 emulator.

Here is a test version for you to verify the fix: https://t.me/AndrOBD_dev/212

Please let me know if this works for you

Could you please attach the file to this post? I don't have telegram.

Here it is (in zip format) ... androbd-debug.zip

Thanks for the link. I don't seem to be able to manually install this APK though, it tells me "App not installed".

[fr3ts0n]

Oh, yes, this is a debug version of the app, which does not contain any signature by the issuer (FDroid). Therefore you will have to remove the original F-Droid app before you can install the test version.

You may also have to allow installation of apps from other sources to get it installed.

PS: there is a FOSS version of telegram available on FDroid, which is a really good alternative to WhatsApp because it allows to use multiple clients (Mobile, Tablet, PC) on the same account simultaneously. (https://f-droid.org/de/packages/org.telegram.messenger/)

It's quite handy to exchange app versions, and report comments this way ...

I'm seeing similar issues with my OnePlus 6 against a WiFi ELM adapter. Tried installing the zipped version after uninstalling from F-Droid but also got "App not installed".

I couldn't install the app from the phone itself but running adb install -t app.apk did the trick. I can also confirm that @fr3ts0n fixed the issue, now I can connect to the device and get all kind of data from the ECU. Look forward to having the fix pushed to fdroid.

Fixed, released with V2.0.6
