No printed documentation at all but you really shouldn't need any if you use this with Torque and an Android phone.
My only complaint is that the connection drops about once every minute or two even though the two are located about 12" apart. It takes so long to go through the connection and discovery process that in the end, it's only connected about 50% of the time.
The problem might not be with this device, it could be on the Nexus One/Torque end or even my car's OBD-II, but a serial cable version works fine with software on my laptop. This and Torque on Android isn't a very reliable connection for me.

This is a great little product however the documentation is lacking (if you can't handle 'playing' with electronics and software to get it working find an alternative product). The product comes with a single small CD of free-ware / promo-ware software (one of which includes a trojan that will setoff your anti-virus software). Despite that, I found that it works great with a number of open source programs. I use it with an '09 mini cooper S - typically connected to a moto droid running Torque. Great combo overall. The one drawback is the unit has a fixed bluetooth security code that doesn't appear to be resettable.

I bought this to work with torque, an android application that displays all sorts of engine data. The application itself is well supported and I'm pretty sure it's the only reason people really buy bluetooth<->OBD-II adapters. I was really very excited to give it a try.
It was easy to pair, the default code was 1234, which I'm pretty sure cannot change, but oh well. I paired it to my phone, check. I went into torque and it instantly pops up an error saying the device was pretty much guaranteed to malfunction, bad sign but I figured I'd give it a shot. I fidgeted with all the settings for a while just to get a reliably ball-parked RPM reading. After uninstalling and reinstalling torque, as well as disconnecting the scanner and removing it's profile from my phone (multiple times) I finally got it to work. Hooray!
So I took it about a mile up the road, just basic neighborhood driving. It reads (semi) reliably, but when I took a look, lo and behold 302 communication errors! I should have stopped right there, but I figured it seems to reliably report some data, the rest I could attempt to verify later (like mpg information). So I drove about 5 miles on the highway and my check engine light comes on!
I pull over, run the code scanner, no errors.. At all. So I drive the closest auto parts place that had a scanner that they would let me use, but on the way I smell burning plastic! I reach down feel the scanner and it's really, REALLY HOT! I rip it out of the port and go and get my codes checked, no codes, but my light is on. I had to power cycle my entire electrical system to get it to go off, now I'm stuck with an ECU that needs to relearn everything. Out of curioucity I go on my phone and found it had 4,000+ errors.
I am returning this after less than five hours, and I beg of anyone who's planning on buying one, reconsider. Just get the expensive one, the savings are not worth risking your several hundred dollar ECU.

You could pay up to 500 even 1,000 snap on scanners that do the same thing. Plus those are wired. This is Bluetooth and your smart phone or tablet is the screen. Read more
