[aha999]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently the AndrOBD app does not support BLE adapters, which then need to operate in BT mode.

Describe the solution you'd like

The issue was mentioned in the telegram channel, so i posted it for future reference.

I just bought a device and found out it was BLE because of this post. the F-Droid description should be changed at the very least to indicate this feature isnt available yet :(

Is this adapter BLE only?
Could you please provide a link to this adapter?
Thx

I tried AndrOBD v2.6.8 with a Carly OBD Adapter and couldn't connect.

Same for me. Also using Carly OBD Adapter.

Pls could you provide a log file to verify that there is no communications going ...?
Thx

I can't even select the device, the app doesn't show BLE devices, that's the problem I think

Please note that the Carly adapter does NOT claim to be ELM compatible.
They advertise to use an updatable ARM controller.
It appears that the adapter is usable with their software only.
I haven't found any documentation of their protocol used, but it doesn't seem to be ELM compatible.

That might be true, but I have used it on android and iOS with "Car Scanner" and other third party apps, which worked..
