ALDLdroid is an application designed for OBD1 GM (ALDL) ECMs, compatible with both 160 baud and 8192 baud protocols. Below are key features and functionalities of the app:
TunerPro Files
The app supports TunerPro files (ADX). Before purchasing, ensure you have the correct ADX file that corresponds to your ECM's code mask. The ADX file must also be unencrypted as the app cannot read encrypted files. After running the app for the first time, you will need to copy your ADX file into the ADX directory within the ALDLdroid folder on your Android device.
Other Vehicle Brands
With the right XDF file (ensuring it is not encrypted), ALDLdroid can also be used for tuning other vehicle brands, including BMW, Buell, DSM, Ducati, Ford, Holden, Nissan, Porsche, Volvo, Fiat, Renault, etc. Make sure to acquire the necessary XDF file before purchase.
Editing BIN Files
The application allows users to edit BIN files using TunerPro (XDF) files. It currently supports real-time tuning with Moates Ostrich and Moates AutoProm hardware. Additionally, chip programming can be done with Moates BURN1/BURN2 hardware.
Users can connect to the ECM via Bluetooth or USB (FTDI). Ensure your Android device supports either connection method; note that not all devices support USB host mode despite having a USB port.
Edit Mode
By double-tapping any page of the dashboard, users can enter edit mode for complete customization of dashboard indicators. You can add, edit, and delete indicators by dragging them to desired locations. Available formats include gauge, basic readout, bar graph, or histogram.
Alarms
Alarm thresholds can be set for specified values, where indicators may turn red, or the app may vibrate as a reminder.
Data Viewing Tools
The app includes several data viewers:
A scatter plot viewer that lets you select X/Y/Z axes from your data logs.
A GPS mapping tool for viewing data in geographical context.
A time series viewer for examining temporal data trends from your logs.
There are no refunds after 15 minutes of purchase through Google Play. Before committing, consider consulting online communities that share your ECM to gather feedback on the application's performance.
Should you experience issues, contact support via email for assistance before leaving negative feedback. Provide detailed information about your setup for effective troubleshooting.
