ALP Connect - Android Versions

[CJR238]

No, There will not be any option to run both at the same time. You can use the switch box to switch between one and another and we might even come out with a better AL Branded method to switch in the future but it will still be one or the other.

Is there somewhere that we can send letters to request the ability to run both the app and the key pad at the same time?

IMO it really makes no sense that the key pad cant still be utilized while using the app. What happens if your phone dies or you forget it, the ALP wont work at all??

Sorry for being annoying, but it makes no sense at all. I know of no other device that uses a wired key pad that when you use the app the key pad becomes inoperable.

Sure it will plug in the control set. Why would you not have it in your car anyway? The network switch mentioned earlier is a simple fix.

Maybe because I have been running it for so long with the app, I can't imagine why anyone who has the ALP would ever want to run it with out the bluetooth and the app. Why don't you just install the switch? Seems easy enough.

CJR238 you need to get the switch to go back and forth. Tom sent me the switch and it is very handy to have. although honestly with my dedicated display i am more than happy with using BT only.

Can someone please tell me what switch you use to switch between the BT and keypad?

I appreciate the info. I will probably have to wait until I get to Cali to order it. Dont think it will make it before I have to leave. I have noticed some BT connectivity issues with my Iphone 6 plus IOS 8.1.2 and ALPConnect. It will randomly cycle the system into parking mode only. I have to select city/hwy to get it back into defense mode.

You are not alone... Its an iPhone 6 issue with IOS 8.x issue. AntiLaser has tried everything but its an issue with ISO and LE (Low Energy) BT devices.

I am going to try updating my NEXUS 7 and mount it above my stereo. I just need a newer version of jellybean or whatever its called so I can use the ALPConnect on that. Any suggestions on an Apple product that wont be affected by the IOS 8 issue? Might try an Ipod or Apple Mini if those are safe. Need some money first. lol
