Hello all,
I'm trying to figure out if I could use an arduino to sniff canbus power train information and then somehow get this information to be used as a USB obd type device on android.
Currently my obd port is being used by another engine monitoring device so wondering if anyone has another solution to get canbus engine diagnostic info? I believe since I'd want read only it wouldn't interfere with the obd packet data too.
Thank you in advance for any pointers!

Not sure if this OBD2 Y Splitter Flat Extension Cable would work as intended in your case, but check out the link below.

Unfortunately obd doesn't allow simultaneous data. The pid data interferes with each other.

Maybe it depends on the device/application?
No idea, but I've been using one of those splitters to use Torque and a ScanGauge2 at the same time, haven't noticed any problems.

The obd device hooked up now manages the engine and doesn't allow for a second device as it takes priority. Plus if any data is compromised by a second device, there could be engine damage, which I'll want to avoid.

Yes, a piggyback that allows a bunch of gains and engine control. Allows me great output on the track, just need to more get the engine info to record it all.

there is a battery/addon that allows vga output, but not av in just vga out and a composite video out, its for the xda2 but it works on the xda2i... well i have been told it does.

if you open the back battery cover you can see a large plug below the battery the addon uses that, but you cannot mob the pda yourself.

Hello!
I have a piece hardware which can be controlled via a RS232 interface.
Now I want to replace my controller, a computer, through the Galaxy Tab. Is there a way to communicate from the Galaxy Tab to a RS232 interface with a normal Android App and the right connection hardware/cable?
I found the "FlexSerial" cable. Is this what I need?

I think your challenge may be more driver/software related as opposed to being hardware/cable related. If you do get the cable sorted out, getting the Tab to communicate with the RS232 cables in the right way may be tricky. The flex serial cable is certainly a start but the function you are looking for is probably very specific to the device you want to control so finding the right Android app will not be easy. Just out of curiousity, what device is it?
There is an interface for controlling devices like robots, valves, timers, etc called andruino and it had a developer kit for programming and app creating. I think it will help your project.

http://sven.killig.de/android/N1/2.2/usb_host/
ADK is not an option because the controlled hardware can't be changed.
@mkhattab:
Samsung Galaxy Tab Wi-Fi (P1010)
I have planned to development the Android App myself. But I read there are no API functions for a serial interface on Android :/

Are there any APIs / functions for USB interface? I think that's more likely than RS232 and in that case you can use a converter cable provided you have the correct drivers
http://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-RS232-Converter-Cable/dp/B00077DJIQ
Hm no, or maybe it works with a Bluetooth RFCOMM socket and a dongle like http://serialio.com/products/adaptors/BlueSnapStd.php at the hardware

P.S.
I have change the post
I know Amigo, it sometimes happens to me.
I don't know anything for a fact about this subject but I will ask a question. Do you think the tab would have to be capable of going into USB host mode? Not as an external device (pc) controlling the tab but the tab controlling the external device (rs232 via USB via 30 pin proprietary Samsung data and charging port).
The second link I gave above is instructions for that. I thought the same as you, but I guess it's not what the op wants.
Just wondering if anyone has managed to succefully use an MTP enabled music device (such as a car head unit or stereo) with an HTC one?
I have a car head unit that works fine with a $50 Android 4.0 alcatel phone but doesn't seem to work with my Android 4.3 HTC One.
Any advice is appreciated!

I don't believe there are any cars which support MTP for now. UMS is only supported in most cases and you need a car from sometime this year which by a small tiny chance will support UMS. The alcatel phone has an ext SD card, am i wrong? That allows for UMS. Sorry man but if you want an MTP player in your car, ya gotta refit the audio or get a new car. BTW here is a LINK to one of those players. Hit me up with a thanks if i helped. PM me if you have more questions

I installed a new headunit. It specifically states Android compatible (must be android 4.0+ with MTP). This is what the headunit states....So I think it is compatible. It also seems to work with a friend's Galaxy SIII, it just doesn't like my HTC.
But thank you for trying to help.

Never seen that error before ._. Sorry man. Just googled it and seems people are having problems with the pioneer and having the exact same error. Maybe pioneer has a for that you can discuss this abt?
So this is my unit: http://www.pioneer.com.sg/storefront4/ProductDetail/default.asp?ProductId=1349&CatId=,2,33
It says under specifications "requires CD-MU200 (for Android)." Any idea what that is?

I want to expand the Note 5's memory in order to listen to my music collection. I'm using the following adapters with a micro SD-XC card:
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00DOYNI8A?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01
and
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00DUV1E9C?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00
Unfortunately, the music stops playing after a while and the Note shows the message that the external memory has been removed. So I have to unplug and replug my construction back into the Note 's USB-OTG plug in order tu continue my music enjoyment.
I'm using the N920C, Android 5.1.1. everything stock, no root.
I listen my music with the Poweramp app.
Turning on or off USB-Debugging does not solve the problem.
I tried Different adapters, cards and cables and I always get this problem. Can anyone confirm this behaviour and does anyone have an idea how to fix that issue?
.. I'm in search of a WiFi-micro SD-XC cardreader to wirelessly stream my music to the Note . Does anyone know such a device?
Thank you for your help!

I use the USB 3.0 version. Works great. As I have it attached to my key ring I use it too a lot for PC-PC transfer while moving here and there and the USB 3.0 on the PC side is way much faster.

AA uses a "video" stream for sending the screen data to the HU. This option (and the new 1080p) it's only for forcing the resolution. Stock size is 640p, and enhanced sizes are 720p & 1080p. Nothing related to "video play"!

You're free to not use it! I'm using Magisk+Xposed and my banking apps. :laugh:
And the idea is fresh: Add "hooked" AA compatibility on-the-fly to any app! This can be done using Xposed.

Interesting... However, I prefer other type of Apps.
not necessarily to watch video, sometime you can "hear" mp4 song is also enough, rather than every time converting mp4 to mp3, when you want to listen
something like hearing waze instruction, once a while, not like you have to look at waze every time

This is possible, but:
Passing touchscreen events requires root.
Android Auto normally replaces screen content with its logo and it would be mirrored.

Audio is channelled through USB while on AA, as far as I know... At least that's what I've read on specialised sites, forums, and tested on my own car. V4A works well while streaming through Bluetooth, but once you plug it in to USB, no processing is done since the head units DSP takes over...
