Hacking into Zoe's CANbus

[feuerwagen]

Dear jmeijer,

just change the subject and your general reference to your much respected project to "ZE-CANbus Explorer" or similar and all even the not relevant people will be happy.

An owner of a Kangoo ZE tried the software and it seems pretty functional too!

"Alpha" downloads can be found at http://canze.fisch.lu, as well as information about the hardware. Screens now include driving parameters, charging parameters (i.e. how much current is the external charger willing to supply), cell temperatures and voltages, etcetera.

Enjoy!

Hi there - i successfully got your app working using this dongle and a Google Nexus 7 Tablet:

I tested with 2 ZOE's, a few of the values seem a bit "out of bound" but in general the read data seems correct. Thanks for your great work i'm looking forward to see more functionality within your app.

Good to hear that, thank you, appreciated.

Can you please elaborate on

the values seem a bit "out of bound"

You can report any issues (and please do!) on https://github.com/fesch/CanZE/issues

Tomorrow a new pre-compiled version will be posted. We've worked hard on ELM stability, did a lot of small logical and layout fixes, and added a Firmware screen, so you can check the firmware version on the ECU's of your car.

Enjoy and have a lovely weekend.

Great, inspiring work. Thanx alot ...

I just tested a clean installation on my Cyanogenmod 5.1.1 mobile phone. I don't have any google stuff installed and AFWall blocking outbound traffic.

The last version that starts properly is 2015.10.04. Later versions crash on startup. First the crash error comes up, then the alert for bluetooth usage shows for a fraction of a second. Do you use any depencies on google stuff in the later versions?

Hope this is of some help to you.

Again, great work!

Thanx

Thank you @Marxx for the thumbs up and for testing. As far as I know there are no "google" dependencies. The app does not do more than regular UI, firing of threads and talking with Bluetooth.

You're not the first to have problems with CanZE on Cyanogenmod though. I don't think any of the current developers own a Cyanogenmod device, so it is a tad hard to nail it. We would love a developer familiar with Cyanogenmod, Android Studio and github to chime in and give it a spin.

I am happy to put this up as an issue on github myself, but in that case you will not get notified of any progress, so my strong advice is to do that yourself. If you don't want to and can live with the lack of feedback, please let me know (here or PM) and I will put your description there.

Hoi pipelepoi Jeroen (sorry, kon het niet laten ),

I just compiled the source on Ubuntu 14.04. Compiles straight through. Lint complaines about 150 issues, but the apk's are build.

I can't install the release apk (Parsing error), but the debug apk installes and ... runs well on my Cyanogenmod 5.1.1

Under Settings it says "Build 2015.10.13 @ 09.08"

I can post the apk if needed, or provide you with a private download link. And I will sign up with github now ...

Just checked on your 2015.13.10 version. It also installs and runs well on Cyanogenmod 5.1.1

[jmeijer]

I am glad that was successfully fixed, thank you for testing, and enjoy CanZE.
