New: adapter check. Vehicle › Adapter › Check adapter tests which ELM327 commands your adapter really supports, version by version from v1.0 to v2.2, like the ELM327 Identifier app.

Many cheap adapters report "v1.5" or "v2.1" but implement much less. Elm Electronics never made a v1.5 at all. The check shows:

  • the version the adapter actually behaves like, next to the one it reports
  • which commands are missing, per version
  • whether every command OpenOBD relies on works
  • whether the adapter answers OK even to a made-up command, which makes its claims meaningless

The command table comes from the Version History in Elm Electronics' ELM327 data sheet. The check only sends read-only or temporary settings, nothing that writes the adapter's memory, and puts the app's settings back afterwards. Copy report gives you the result as text, handy for a GitHub issue.

If you try it, please post your result (adapter name plus the copied report) in an issue. It will show which adapters people actually have.

Install: download OpenOBD-0.2.0.apk below. It updates 0.1.0 in place.
