No "save" button for OBD connection

  • Done

Jared B.

When using current version of ABRP, I attempt to connect my OBDLink CX. I'm able to start the process, see the OBD listed, and it successfully makes a connection to car. However, a pop-up says to press the "Save" button to save the connection. Unfortunately, the button is missing and it won't save the connection. The second I press the back button on the app...the connection is lost.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 10+
OS: Android 12
ABRP version: 4.2.6

I have a Kia e-niro and vgate icar pro obd adapter. It looks like everything is working but after dialog with success message the car setup still shows option to connect and does not activate live data. Bluetooth led on OBD adapter is active when "ABRP OBD Connection" page is visible but turns off when returning to app main screen.

What might be wrong? Looks like it should work... I have attached screenshots from the app.

Suddenly when I tested again after adding this bug-report a save button appeared. You can close this issue, it is solved and working great now. Thanks :)

Hi Fredrik,

Yes! We resolved this yesterday but one may need a reboot of the app / clear cache in order to get the fix.

Hi!

My dongle connects with the App and the car but I am unable to save the connection.

Please debug :-)

This has now been fixed and you should be able to get the update if you force close the app and open it again (build number 996). Thanks for all the feedback!

Does connect, but cannot save. Don't get the "save" option anymore (since I upgraded to Premium). iCar Pro dongle.

Vgate vlinker mc+, kia ev6, samsung a52s, android 12. All software latest versions.
Have been using the obd connection as standard user, worked flawlessly.
Since yesterday Premium user, can not make a connection. Connecting works, app finds the dongle, everything ok. At end of connection process there is no "confirm" to tick, can only go back with the android arrow, it then seems the connection is not saved.
I have set the "use live data" switch

Yeah. I'm heading out on a 2 week road trip on Tuesday and was really hoping to be able to use the ODB data for accurate battery levels, etc. At the moment, it's unusable.

Here is the screenshot after making a successful OBDLink CX connection and it states to press the save button. However, no save button is present.

Every change in the settings is saved automatically. Is there any setting that is not saved for you?
