Anybody use their Tilt/Kaiser for obd2 crap? I'm thinking about picking up a bluetooth obd dongle to replace my cable, if there is away to do what I want on my tilt.

I'm interested in this too for use in my wife's G35x. I was playing with her iPhone the other day and noticed "Rev" in the apps store. With the correct cable, which you order from the company, this allows you to check/clear engine codes, view readouts of certain engine vitals, and other features. They might make an app for Windows as well, wouldn't hurt to contact em.

That is sweeeeet! and a great price too. I usually have my laptop in the passenger's seat so I can do logging and the cable always hangs between my legs, it really pisses me off.
I just ordered one. The only downside is I'll still have to use the laptop when I want to do wideband logging, but other than that it should be good to go. Now if I could just find a way to get openECU to work on WM6 :)

i downloaded this software. tried using it with a bluetooth obd2 adapter, but they could not connect to each other. i believe it is because the software was developed over 3 years ago.
if anybody is willing to continue the work, the source codes are available on that website.

I use the OBD Gauge 1.3 from this site on my HTC Imagio (WM6.5) and a BT OBD II (Car-Pal) and it works great... Config BT OBD in BT Settings to use Com Port 2 (or any available Com Port), then tell OBD Gauge to use that Com Port from with in the program. A BT device selection screen will pop up to connect/reconnet to BT device when OBD Gauge tries to connect to it.

I'm using my phone for OBD1 stuff.
Inside the ECU (Honda EDM P28 with eCtune software) is a connector that has GND, +5V, TX and RX (TTL levels)
I mounted a BlueTooth module (Parallax Easy BT) to have it connected to my Kaiser at COM8.
The software uses this COM port to communicate with the ECU.
RPM, VSS, IAT, ECT, IGN, etc. etc. etc.

I am now using OBDGauge on my AT&T Tilt, with a bluetooth OBD interface. I got the OBD device here: http://www.rklenka.com/index.php?id=store/news
I did discover the "New Outgoing Port" setting inside the Settings/Bluetooth folder. Click on COM ports. Select the device you wish to add (mine is called CBT). Hit next and select a COM port (I am using 5). I tested it in my truck, which is OBD2 and has a CAN bus. Eureka! It works! Make sure the com port you select in OBDGauge preferences is the same you assigned to the BT ELM interface, and it should connect and start scanning.
You do need to have something available to keep the display from shutting off. My plan is a cigarette lighter USB power adapter with my sync cable. I also need to find a mounting bracket...
True, it does not show mpg, but ODBMobile does. I am about to get a copy and stick it on my Tilt.
