Hi Guys,
I bought elm327- bluetooth interface of car OBDII.
I have checked it- it works- My friend with Android didn't had any problems to connect.

I have been fighting with that for 5 days on my iphone and it still dont want to work:/
I did it step by step like in this video:

roqyBT finds interface and connects to it- so it creating port 127.0.0.1:35000.
Unfortunately when I back to spring board and open dashcmd and click connection- I'm getting an error: Interface communication failure. It is interesting that when I am closing dashcmd it disable bluetooth connection.
I read about that problem here:

Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem? According to faq exactly this interface worked with iphone...so there must be a solution.


Maybe there is any other way to connect to elm327? I downloaded also REV 2.0.2- it tries to connect, refreshing, showing 1 of 3 green dots but it still doesn't connect.
I read about alternative for that roqyBT- BTstack (for GPS??)...but it is hard to download that (I found 2 types-one is showing in options and I only can choice the type of bluetooth: BTstack, iOS and none. Second one is normal app- and it finds OBDII, but demo version doesn't allow to keep this connection when opening another program- anyway I guess that it work the same as roqyBT.

Help?
