New app for Android Auto users..Gauges!

Taken at stop light. Probably need to do the vehicle profile in order to get any accuracy out of the gauges. The only ones I am currently confident in are the volts, outside air temp and possibly air intake temp. The only one that does not display anything is ethanol.

From my understanding from looking at it, the Ethonal one doesn't pull from the ECU, but from the OBD2forAA. When you add the PID for you can see a spot to enter the value. Once you fill in that blank, I'm sure it'd show up on the screen. (Again at work and can't test currently)

Maybe you are getting pure gas, my ethanol says 10% but of course i am in the midwest. I believe it does pull from the ecu.
On the other hand, some of the mpg pids are actually generated within torque based on a 'profile' and aren't actually from the ecu. You probably want to use the ecu ones.
Next up Rem, in the OBD2AA app you can remove the decimals, especially for your temp gauges listed.

So after rearranging the gauges in the order I want, the app quits when I try to preview them on the phone. Tried quitting the app and rebooting the phone to no avail. EDIT: It was the warning level on volts. I had set a minimum value of 11.5. Decimals are not allowed, only whole numbers. After I sent bug report to XDA I had an answer within two hours. Damn fast and on a Sunday as well.
I guess I'll see tomorrow if it works in AA.
Also anyone know how to delete a PID without replacing it with something else?
I accidentally set a PID on one of the tpms settings thinking I could input a psi value. It is actually just another PID entry field.

Haven't gotten any data from Ethanol, so I changed to E10/Petrol and will see if that works. Was set at Petrol. Not sure how to get the data from different sources. ECU vs profile.
MPG (avg) is not even close. My truck is telling me 16.1 and distance to empty the same, truck is telling me 560. The DTE does inch up very slowly, might be Wednesday by the time it catches up with the truck. I just filled up today and moved the scale in Torque to full.
Also I have set up a profile F150 2.7 5400 lbs. 36 gal tank.

My PID for ethanol is 52,0
For fuel I can't find the settings now to double check them but I remember issues on my last truck where it couldn't read the fuel level and I would have had to go into torque everytime i filled up and say tank was full. So i never used torques mpg stuff
