This scanner uses the "Torque App" for Android phones. When I hooked it up
to my 2008 H3 Alpha and loaded the [FONT=inherit !important][FONT=inherit !important]App[/FONT][/FONT] I find It's not talking to the E.C.M.
Then checked to see if it would work on my HHR... got the same thing.
Could use some advice from someone that has used a blue-tooth scanner

I haven't used a BT scanner but drove past a Holiday Inn yesterday. Does it appear in the phone list of connected devices? Do you need to do anything to the phone settings, like set the phone's BT to "discover"?

If you haven't yet, you'll need to pair the bluetooth scanner with your phone (Settings -> Bluetooth -> make sure it's on and the select the scanner from the list and pair it should be all you need to do). Seems the scanner should have come with instructions for that bit. Otherwise a Google search might net you some instructions.

Torque Pro has some settings in there to help it work with various OBDII readers. My eBay cheapie works just fine but others have reported issues with the same device.
