Late to the game here, I'm sure this has been solved somewhere but search yielded no results. Need help...

ObdLink MX
Bluetooth connection
2014 Ram 1500 5.7
Android 9+

Can connect to ObdMink MX, but can't connect to truck, always times out.
Trying to adjust my TPMS thresholds

Also was never asked for a PIN (?)

help?

What version of AlfaOBD? Back around page 179 there were reports of crashing with newer Android but it was apparently addressed in version 2.1.6.4. I run an old Android 4.4 tablet and a Win10 PC with out issues so far.

You won't need a PIN until you try to reset the RF Hub.

My entry to this thread was at #763 on page 31. My how time files!

I'm running 2.1.6.6

Wonder if I should try to put it on an older android?
I'll check the posts you mention, thank you

If you can think of anything else to look into, I'd appreciate it

Bringing this over from a different section...

I recently downloaded and installed the program for my 2012. I’m using obdlink mx+, when I log on it reads my truck just fine. When I boot up the alfaobd I selected the proper vehicle (pictured) and it’ll connect but when I go into regular mode it displays Chrysler 200/Sebring/Dodge Avenger. When I select ram 1500-4500 it disconnects and goes to idle. So when I try to change anything it brings up the message it was completed but doesn’t know the status due to no confirmation received. I have tried changing other features too but always displays same message. Does anybody have a a clue what I’m doing wrong or something I may have missed??! Thanks

Problem solved!!!! After some messaging back and forth and figuring out how to properly download the fixes that were sent it all works!!! Couldn’t be happier, now to just figure out what I can change.....

Hey guys so I just purchased the alfaobd app. I've had great success up to this point. I'm attempting to program a key to my ram it has the push button start in it. I've attained the 4 digit pin from the dealer and have attempted to follow the fobiks programming instructions posted previously in the thread. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What messages are you getting when it fails to program?

I just found this program and have the MX+ OBD link, 2016 Ram Tradesman and a couple questions..

When I downloaded the stock settings to Google drive it's all one huge 12 page paragraph, is there any way to reformat how it stores the info or writes it?
Also I used the MY2013-2017 selection in the body menu but there is also a MY 2016-2017 option..upon closing the program after downloading the base info the check engine light was on and the error was a class 2 communication failure, is this common or is it because I used the wrong MY option?

Any input will be appreciated, I have searched and tried to read most of this thread but it is very long!

I am trying to program a key to my Tradesman. I have the basic key with no buttons or anything. I have followed the instructions in post #2250 and I keep getting a message that says Failed. Conditions not correct or request sequence error. Do I need to use the highline option also.

Edit: I tried the highline and it still fails. anybody else have this issue?

No. Baseline is what you need but it hasn’t worked the past few updates. 2.1.6.4 works. Could you sent the debug log to the developer, please? He might not be aware of this, and if everybody keeps reverting back to the older version that works, without letting him know, then it will never get fixed for the next people that try.
