370Z CAN Bus Proprietary PID's

I was going to go the route of building custom hardware, but then I searched for refurbished Android tablets and ended up finding a Galaxy Tab 4 (7" tablet) for under $100. I'm pairing that with an OBDLink LX Bluetooth scan tool. So far this setup seems like it will work.

Mobile programming is a huge pain and I'm not liking it so far as I slowly learn it, but you can't beat the built-in graphics, touch, and BT capabilities.

The hardware aspect is nice. The code layout drives me nuts. Also the WYSIWYG editor in Android Studio is buggy, and it depends on which Android version you want to use as well. The DatePicker widget is fussy. C#/Java is pretty easy, and Swift is another new language and style. I can code and skin touch friendly programs in Visual Studio so much more quickly.
