Hi! first things first, what a supreme app! Thanks for all the effort to the dev’s

![17285920513806487124899451442409](https://forum.realdash.net/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a123fc16bc3f075e5148729b004a0e9d0ad71955.png)

That said, I’ve managed to get an Actia XS Lite user interface and I’ve been unable to connect it to an Android 14 phone via an OTG cable.

The app recognises the adapter but it won’t connect to the car’s obd2 port. I used generic obd2 definition.

Any ideas or suggestions? I’ll try to get a windows laptop this weekend and try it from there.

Thanks very much

Hard to say. You can try if your adapter is communicating with the vehicle with OBD2 Monitor in connection settings.

your problem depends on many reasons. first you need to understand if you are using the correct driver. then you need to find out if your adapter accepts standard requests to the bus and gives the correct answer from it. it is better to do this with third-party programs. and only then you can start to screw your adapter to realdash.
