When The launch icarscan app was running, it suddenly stopped

Posted on August 29, 2018September 1, 2018 by wp-admin

When The launch ICARSCAN app was running, it suddenly stopped. The diagram below:

The customer provided the following information:

Generally, such problems may be caused by too low hardware version or too low car version.

The hardware is automatically upgraded. Only the bluetooth connection box is needed to keep the mobile phone network open, and the App will automatically prompt the firmware to upgrade.

If the hardware upgrade is not resolved, please update your software to the latest version.

If both the hardware and software are upgraded to the latest version, the problem remains. Please provide your icarscan App version and serial number, mobile phone model and android version to us.

We’ll work it out for you in two working days.

Is this same or old version of the icarscan?

Posted on August 6, 2018August 7, 2018 by wp-admin

It’s basically the same OBD-II Bluetooth device – but the software supplied with it is different – and the way it’s sold is different.

That one is without ANY vehicle/manufacturer specific diagnostics capability. As delivered it will do just OBD-II and some ABS diagnostics. Generic OBD-II. It won’t read the 30 or so modules in your Cayenne.

To get it to do that – you have to purchase the software for Porsche – which includes ALL Porsche cars. As someone mentioned – that’s about another $50, so you’re in at about $100 to JUST read Porsche codes. If you want additional vehicle manufacturers (all your cars aren’t Porsches) – each manufacturer will cost you another $50. So – the adaptor and 2 cars costs the same as the ICarScan one – which includes in the $158/price – the ability to choose 5 different car manufacturers.

Which is best for you? Dunno. At the time I bought mine – the Launch X431 Scan Tool (made by the company that writes the software running on the ICarScan) wasn’t readily available.

I only know one person who bought the one from Launch – and he seems happy with it. If you notice – there are versions of it available for around $80 that include 2 vehicle manufacturer’s diagnostics. That’s not a bad deal either.

I haven’t worked with that tool, and haven’t tried the ICarScan VCI. I know from seeing it – the software has some differences from the ICarScan software. Dunno if the differences are simply cosmetic or significant. If someone wants to buy one and send it to me I could do a side by side comparison. That might be interesting.

So that’s why not-really and no. But sorta…
