Well both will allow wifi so the tablet wouldn't have the cable issue anymore either haha.
FUCK YES! Thank you. Now I can log on track with my phone in my pocket instead of figuring out how to stop my shitty Android tablet from moving around or the cable constantly falling out.
I think it will do the latter but not the former? I believe one needs a built version of the kernel for the power management part, IIRC. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the basis for some of the custom in-car Android solutions. Timur is a good example, though dev on that halted a while back.
I've been looking at options on some of this for a while ... and of course E89 has a few challenges, but which now seem possible to overcome. I'm interested in dedicated broadband connection, and what I'd like to do is ultimately push all sensor data to the cloud - I'm sure to a bunch of you, I don't have to say much about why that's interesting. Transportation Logistics companies are doing some of this ... and there is some stuff in the wild to support it. But I haven't really seen anyone in the car enthusiast world playing with the possibilities. Obviously F1/24 hr/etc are doing some of this ... but I think we are quickly getting to feasibility for us little people . Storage and bandwidth is affordable, etc.

Generally true about logging, etc.pretty sure the can bus can only support a few several streams to monitor otherwise if it could it would.
Its a bandwidth thing or something like that.
yes but it gets its info via canbus doesn't it, so your limited to a number of streams it can read.
Again, start a thread I’ll be there.... My whole life revolves around telemetry and the internet of things before the internet was a thing.And not to digress ... but there are CANBUS loggers ... rat hole and getting off topic.

The new app is for both iOS and Android.
Would like to but I need to stop chasing squirrels and focus. This is a later project (I've just been doing background research on downtime between fires). RIght now I have to get ready for physical mods on the Z4 - we're stilling working stainless outlet, need to wrap up parts shopping for car disassembly for Hydra turbos, XClutch. Just got an N54 head and looking for someone to do an old-school manual port/polish so we can add that to the install, upper rear controls just arrived and went to Barry so he can modify them to have an adjustable top ball joint (so camber can be adjusted from both top and bottom), and I'm sure I'm forgetting 3 other things I need to resolve so we are not screwed any more than we already will be when the car comes apart on the lift for a week.Again, start a thread I’ll be there.... My whole life revolves around telemetry and the internet of things before the internet was a thing.
I'll even plug it in and give you a remote connection lol

If you like screwing around with something that doesn't always work, then Tasker is for you.
