You guys should choose this WIFI dongle from eBay selling at USD30 only. I believe the app developer is using this as well. He just paste his own sticker on it to make it seems like his.

Have any of you emailed this supplier regarding the dongles? This is his reply when I emailed him regarding the price of the dongle. Estimated shipping time is 1-2 weeks.

"Hello
thank you very much for your email
My experience with the "cheap" adapters is quite bad - and unfortunately one can't just look at them since the all look very much the same.

I have searched for a long time to finally find some, which work reliably and have certainly found the best communication quality available.
Especially for coding we need an extremely good and stable quality, since communication during coding is quite complex and difficult.

So now I have the adapters and cables manufactured to my specifications that ensures the highest quality communication.
They work perfectly with the app!
Please check on HOME | iViNi Apps, which adapter or cable you need for your model and Android or iPhone.

I can offer you such a BT-dongle for 16,10€ and a cable for 25€+8,90 deliver/packaging should you be interested. Both for Android!

For iPhone you need a WIFI-dongle for 42,10€+ 8,90 delivery/packaging.
Please send me your address per email and the amount to the bank account - this way we avoid the extra charges of PayPal"

I also received this same email frm this, I still consider order or not, he ask me to transfer money to his ac, but I ask him to send me a sample pic untill now still haven received... Scare is cheat hahaha lol

Only S$11.63 and still free shipping. How come?

BTW, my side mirrors folds with the remote lock. And, if I lock with the fold (holding on to lock) then when I unlock with remote now it will wind down all windows. Can it be set to only unfold side mirrors and not wind down the windows?

Thanks

Re: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Speedo.etc)

I've bought at least 5-6 different cheap OBD dongles from eBay over the past 5 years and I must say that although they may LOOK the same rest assured they are NOT always the same. There are many many revisions of the ELM chip, that's why there's high end dongles like PLX Kiwi. Some are of worse quality than others, and it really depends on your luck.

If you want to play it safe, don't be a cheapo. The app is already S$60. Surely you can pay same or more for the hardware? Buy the proper hardware dongle from the guys who built the app. Even if it means there may POTENTIALLY be the same thing on eBay for half the price, it's not worth the RISK bricking your car. It's over a thousand times more costly to fix.

I have that exact blue/orange OBD dongle that I bought off eBay and it's spoilt. You can see the wireless AP, connect to it, but it will not communicate. If any of you feel adventurous and think it may be just a burnt capacitor you can easily replace in SLT, I will give it away for free...

BTW looking at the list of options I can code for my car, these are the ones I'm interested in trying:

CAS: Comfort start
CAS: Comfort eject
CAS: Comfort open using remote
CAS: Comfort close using remote
CAS: Comfort folding/unfolding for sideview mirrors
CAS: Prohibit engine start without brake = Maybe
FRM: Comfort folding/unfolding for sideview mirrors
FRM: Continue window function when door is opened
IHKA: Save circulation settings
IHKA: Off-Mode Memory
KOMBI: Digital speedometer
KOMBI: Digital speedometer correction
KOMBI: Speedometer correction

Interesting one is the speedometer correction. Our cars are usually showing around 10kph faster than actual speed (if you use a GPS). Coding it to not active will show true road speed.
 
RE: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Spee...

Just tried out the lite app with a Wi-Fi dongle that I got online:

View attachment 58124

It managed to connect with the iPhone app and perform a diagnosis but didn't receive any answers from the ECUs when asked.

View attachment 58125

The connection time took close to 5 min
View attachment 58126

View attachment 58127

33 ECUs were asked but no answer
View attachment 58128

Not sure if there was no answer cos of the dongle I used. I may try to perform a diagnosis on individual ECUs instead of selecting all just now. Otherwise, I may just order the recommended dongle and try again.

What's everyone's situation with the app? Anyone managed to code?
 
Re: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Speedo.etc)

Silly question, it's your ignition on? Or at least at ACC.
 
Re: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Speedo.etc)

Of course ignition was on. Silly question.......
 
Re: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Speedo.etc)

Hi any guys there oredi hv the bmwhat full version? Can share it the $60 dollars apps what different ?lite and full version what different ?any guys oredi try and text? Share it pls...
 
Re: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Speedo.etc)

Just FYI my dongle works perfectly -- detected several ECUs and was able to read the settings, etc. I just don't have full version to code.
 
Re: DIAGNOSE + CODING anytime!!! (Seats Belt reminder, Remote Code, Digi Speedo.etc)

Why not to buy full version bro? Any advise?
