Something my wife and I hacked together this week- an Android app that acts as an instrument cluster
- Thread starter osunick
- Start date
It’s close to a release candidate, starting to load it into Google Play for testers. The best experience I’ve seen is on a Pixel 2XL. I’ve tested on anything from a Nexus 6/7, Xperia Z3 (Android 6.0.1), and my Z Flip 3. The best device I think for the money is a Pixel 2 XL because it doesn’t have a notch or hle punch camera, is plenty fast, and easy to configure for auto boot when plugged in. I run mine with the latest Android 10 build (which you can actually flash from a browser, which is neat) because there are some Android 11 layout issues I haven’t solved in split screen.
If you have a CANserver and want to test shoot me a PM.

I can't seem to find a PM button in the forum GUI - would you be so kind as to PM me yourself?

Meanwhile, my wife and I spent our week hacking together a pollinator bed of wildflowers. Any bets on which couple spent more time in college?
Seriously, this is great work. Can we feed this with the same hardware we're using to feed ScanMyTesla?
If you have a CANserver for SMT, yes. It's the only hardware that can easily tap into the chassis bus for autopilot data. Other adapters are on the "someday" list. This is a fun open source project for me so maybe someone with experience implementing support for other adapters can contribute, if not it's something I do want to eventually do. For now I'm just trying to get this out to more testers, knowing full well that not many people have CANservers.Meanwhile, my wife and I spent our week hacking together a pollinator bed of wildflowers.

Getting closer to making this open source- here's the mount I designed, and I included STEP if you want to modify.

Tesla Model 3 Y Pixel 2XL Steering Column Mount by osunick
This is a custom mount for a Pixel 2XL for the Open Source CANdash project for the Tesla Model 3 and Y. It can be used for anything you want a phone for, and is intended to provide a clean way to mount a smartphone. You will need some parts to complete this build. Right angle USB-C power cable...

The CanDash app is up on the play store.

GitHub - osunick/candash: A simple Android app that turns your phone into an instrument cluster for your Tesla Model 3 and Y (public repo of code)
This is still early in the project, expect many bugs. I have tested on Android 6-12 but as you can see there can be layout issues. I suspect I'm not dealing with hole punch cameras well. My device of choice for this is a Pixel 2XL running Android 10 as they are pretty cheap to get, fast, and have a nice OLED with no hole punches.

Yeah.. it has the punch out camera so it stops below that.. looks weird cause it has rounded edges on one side but square on the other along with the black bar edge
Rounded edges doesn't come through in screen shot
OK, tested on my Android 12 Flip 3 5G and pushed out a change to the play store. You should get an update once it's reviewed.
