Hi Patrick,
Up and running many thanks. There was a few things that stumped me but we were able to work through them. I've setup one of my old mobile android phones for Danielle to use and leave in the car.
I will list some of the issues I found.
1. You (anyone else wishing to install) need to make sure your android device is connected (and has the capability) to the net
2. The OBDII dongle is a good quality one (I brought one from Jaycar because the ebay one I brought stopped working)
3. I had to create the subdirectory folder for the PIDs, as there was nothing in there for the file you sent me.
4. The dash layout was over 4 pages and some were different to the ones on the display I posted.
We went for a test drive in our Outback first and was very pleased with it. Our Outback is Diesel with CVT, so I was wondering how it would go with holding the right RPM but it did with ease and was good to watch the whole process.
I'll attach the dashboard I've setup on my old phone for Danielle to leave setup in her car.
