The 12 volt battery reading comes directly from the Leaf so no calibration is needed.

Works great, but I don't see a "battery calibration" section in the settings. The 12V battery reading in the app seems to be a couple V higher than my voltmeter reading of the battery. Has the calibration option been removed? If it's still a feature, how do I enter the voltmeter reading? At my recent 3 yr service check at the dealer they noted that my battery was a little low, which surprised them and me, so I'd like to keep an eye on it and try to figure out if something in particular is draining it.
Excellent app, thanks for coding this up and providing it to the public.
At the moment I am busy with porting over Leaf Spy to iOS. But once that is done I can look and see what can be added.hillzofvalp said:I downloaded your app in August and have used it every day for 20,000 miles and have some suggestions...
I've been meaning to ask you about logging daily mileage for tax purposes, and it looks like you've already come up with a solution with the trip viewer. I will just choose the manual reset option (including charging) and just tap it every day. Is there a way you could make it automatically reset the entry at a certain time? The official ridesharing day starts at 5AM.. so if you could make it keep track of daily mileage at a set time say from 5 to 5, that would be even nicer!
Looks like I need an SD card to get the trip viewer to work...
The only other suggestion I have is in regard to the layout of data on screen 4 in particular. The battery bar has pretty much no value to most people, since it's basically the same as the 12 bars (maybe that's why you have the other screen). EVs usually involve multiple SHORT trips so using percentages based on full pack energy is pretty hard to do (thus should take minimal screen real estate, if any). I make around 150-250 unique trips per week.
The ideal screen 4 for me would be:
Daily Trip Odometer (Auto resets and logs)
BIG Usable energy in kWh (Keyword: usable aka Total minus reserve)
BIG kW
BIG rolling average mi/kWh (.5-5 mile user selectable)
BIG Mileage countdown in increments of .5-1 mi (not in settings) in same manner as the mi/kwh 0.1 increment area
same mi/kwh 0.1 increment area
Tire pressure should be an alarm only.. or view highest and lowest instead of all 4.
One other thing: Can you make it automatically switch and clear the charger graph when you start a new session?
This would make my life easier, but you've already made it pretty easy so no pressure here.. THanks for your contribution

The problem with providing the driver this information is it must be kept in sync with the actually tire location. The Leaf's original method for doing this required either a Consult 3+ or special tire registration tool to be used whenever the tires were rotated. This was a manual process so Nissan had no way to know if it was actually done.lorenfb said:hillzofvalp said:On second thought, I wonder if there is a reason why Nissan does not display tire pressures to consumers...
Cost! Most high-end (luxury) vehicles have a TPM display function.

There are now Leafs that use a new procedure that can be activated from the dash by the driver to resync the wheels. As a result these new Leafs now display which wheels have low pressure on the car graphic that shows which doors are open. You still don't get to see the actual pressures but it is an improvement. See the Leaf Spy Pro tire registration thread for a picture of the dash.
I too find the tire pressure panel to be one that I always look at while driving as the pressures change a lot based on outside temperature and as the tires heat up while driving. Since the Leaf has no spare tire a slow leak is something of interest to the driver.
Yes, we understand, you don't like having tire pressures on the main page.hillzofvalp said:Let the app/car tell you if there is a disparity so you don't have to stare at the 4 pressures. IF you watch your tires fluctuate 5 psi over the course of the day, I'm really wondering what's going on with you!
Turbo3 said:Turbo3 said:I would suggest you go into the Leaf Spy settings screen and try one of the other Bluetooth Ports. Try Secure first then Port 16. Change Port then exit and restart app.userneym said:Hi, I bought a Mini V1.5 ELM327 OBD2 from Amazon and I'm trying to get it to connect with a Blackberry Z10. I've downloaded the Leaf Spy Lite from Google app store but I can't connect it to the OBD2 adapter. The adapter shows as paired with the phone but is not seen by Leaf Spy Lite. I get this error message "[Bts] bt socket connect failed". Can anyone give me some advice?
Thanks.
I just checked the list of installed devices for both Lite and Pro and don't see any Blackberry or Z10 devices listed.
Please go into the app settings and go to the bottom and enable "Trace ELM (on restart)". Exit app then restart and let it try to connect for a minute. Then send me the TRC and ERRdata .txt files created in the directory LEAF_BT_CAN/DEBUG_FILES. Send to email address listed on About screen.
The Z10 Bluetooth does support the profile needed (SPP) but how well may be in question.
