VemsTune for Android ?

[z0tya]

The 2.0 version not work with android 4.x ICS and exit with error.
Then vems guys have made some bugfix, but the new 2.1 has no settings button, when I run it on ICS android phone or tablet. On GB it is works fine.

I see. I tried it on a Sony Neo V phone.

ATTENTION

Drove the car for 2 days with the Android Display and noticed that it changes several values in many tables from Injector outputs, to VE and Ignition Values, MAT/TPS correction ect.

PLEASE INFORM THE DEVELOPERS ABOUT IT

Do you run firmware 1.2.x ? If not, do so.

[billman]

No but MArcell also suggested the upgrade. I will do and report back. MAybe it changes the values when I disconnect the power source of the Bluetooth->RS232 module.

I had the same issue when connecting a round gauge to the ECU (firmware 1.1.95) using AIM.
There was random changing in my config. I stopped using AIM...

Maybe it comes from the disconnection of the power source of the gauge in my case too.

Which one?

Under Development say for testing, highly experimental, Viper only ,  SubaruEj only , etc....

[mattias]

Afaik, any of them should work. I run 1.2.0, I guess most do.

would be nice for VEMS developers to let us know from the firmware upgrade page which is their next stable version.

i never upgrade on a version that says: TESTING as im not a tester/tuner/developer so i would appreciate this is mentioned after a good while of testing from the team!

+1! And we can't be the only ones...

I am still on 1.1.96 and was about to pull the trigger on a bluetooth adapter when I read that bit about unintentional modifications to the map...This is not even close to being worth it to me if there is a potential for that to happen. 

Does 1.2.0 fix this?
Is 1.2.0 good to go?

Just got a bluetooth adapter.  Hooked it all up, but the VEMTune for android doesn't do anything.  Doesn't seem like it is receiving data.  It connects to the bluetooth adapter just fine (adapter status light changes to connected, and Vemstune pops up and says it is connected to the adapter).

The default serial port settings are identical to the settings I was running on my USB to Serial adapter, so I am not quite sure what is going wrong.  I upgraded my firmware to 1.2.4, set the device to a V3 and the protocol to TriggerFrame (only option).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim

Still having problems, but some more details.

If I connect my the bluetooth adapter to my computer using the same usb-serial adapter that I have been using to connect VEMS to my laptop, and open a bluetooth terminal on my android tablet, I can send messages back and forth just fine.  I can also verify the settings are correct. 

If I open vemsdisplay, I will get get this message on my laptop terminal:

That sequence will repeat indefinitely until I disconnect.

I tried to type this command out, but it didn't result in anything: $01$A3$05$05$AE

This can ONLY happen if you don't use the VEMS adapter for round to serial port (supplied with the serial display gauge). We only connect gnd and tx (out of the ECU) in that adapter. Since there's no rx, there's no way values can change. If you use your own adapter, such as a purchased null modem adapter, we've seen issues.

Figured out my problem.

Make sure your DCE/DTE settings are correct.  Basically, my VEMS ECU and Serial bluetooth adapter were trying to Transmit on the same pin and Receive on the same pin.  So I couldn't communicate with it.  I guess my USB serial adapter doesn't have that problem (its the opposite type of device), which is why I could talk to my tablet with my computer using that blue tooth adapter.

There was a switch on the side of my adapter for this, so I don't need to use a crossover cable.  This is really nice because I can now hide the adapter in the same place I used to tuck my USB cable.  Makes it easy to switch back and forth.

It will be great when we can get datalogging and even the ability to change settings this way.  I am using a tablet (Asus TF700), not a phone, so moddifying settings/tables seems more than practical.  I mean, the thing has a keyboard dock, so I could use it the same way I use my laptop now.  Its just small and has MUCH better battery life AND can be charged off a basic 12v-USB car charger.  Hopefully that will happen at some point...  With Windows 8 tablets coming there may not be much motivation to support Android over Windows 8 and Windows RT.  Maybe Android will get WINE with WindowsRT (both run on ARM).  Still would require the devs to compile VEMSTune for RT.

Hello,

Can some one give my some advise getting the Android app working?
I can't get a connection in the application. (see photo)

Some information on what i have tried/done
-Purchased this blue-tooth adapter    https://www.conik.biz/webwinkel/:///Draadloze-communicatie/Bluetooth-to-RS232-adapter/
-Only connected the TX and ground (pin 3 and 5 RS232) to the blue-tooth)
-RS232 to Blue-tooth adapter powers from 12Volt cigarette lighter
-I have a good blue-tooth connection from tablet(NEXUS7) to blue-tooth adapter. (See photo)
-I Paired the blue-tooth connection in APP. (See photo)
-I have set the baud rate to 19200bps ( See photo RS232 config tool)
-Enabled the AIM in VEMS tune.

Do i miss something? 
Tanks a lot!
