    Hey Guys,

    just did a stealth install of my old car stereo, sadly BT voice isn't working anymore. sooo this question may have already been asked but is there a custom Torque App PID that displays the Gen 2 Energy Monitor etc, basically replicates the displays of the stock MFD..?

    i'm keen to install an Android/OBDII transceiver to replace/enhance the MFD

    Cheers

    Stephen

    ok I didnt think that through, I'm guessing its not possible to replicate the stock MFD display and functions with an Android..?

    It's probably going to have to track/display 2-3 pids simultaneously, but there's other android software that displays multiple gauges simultaneously so that isn't likely to be a problem. Now, finding one that looks like the toyota screen? that might be a challenge.

    We gave all that up when we changed stereos and honestly I haven't missed it a bit. Our c lets us display something like it on the upper display, and we eventually turned that off too, now it just has a gas gauge, time and the temperature.

    But the car is still circulating the data needed to drive it, I see no reason why the right software couldn't recreate a functional hybrid display for you.

    Seems theoretically possible to me, but I've never heard of anyone investing the many hours of programming it would take to make a replica on your phone.
