Compatibility Iphone 4 and OBD BT

Post by plartaud »

i once buy an OBD II bluetooth yo use it on GPS suite
(http://www.boutiqueobdfacile.fr/elm327- ... tooth.html)

it works on my car with BT on a mac but doesn't work with iPhone

I've read that it comes from BT interface from the iPhone

Does it means that all OBD II Bluetooth needs a jailbreaked iPhone ?
Does gopoint GT1 will work without any modification on my iPhone ?
Does it mean than GL1 will work without iphone modification ?
Does it mean than any WIFI device will work without iphone modification ?

Bravo pour votre logiciel !!

Yes, any BT connectivity provided by current OBD dongles needs to go through Apple certification to connect to an unchanged iPhone - and only GoPoint has done this so far. Wifi doesn't need this certification, so this channel is open.
