    ALP Connect FW2.0 Revision Bluetooth Module Problems

    I'm having experiencing two rather annoying problems with the FW 2.0 revision of the Bluetooth Module with ALP Connect on Android. I ordered the newer module as the original one I bought earlier this year did not support the OTA upgrade feature. I have since reverted back to the original module until these errors are fixed in a future firmware update.

    1) 50% of the time when I launch the ALP Connect app, it erroneously reports that firmware 4.5.1 or higher is required when trying to connect to the module. As such, the app refuses to connect to the dongle. My control box is at firmware 5.1.3. Usually shutting the car off and back on a few times will correct this.

    2) Randomly while driving ALP Connect will give an audio alert stating "Error code 4, control box malfunction, please contact support"
    This alert will continue to play every few seconds and will not stop until the app is closed or the module disconnected from the app. Similarly to the first error above, power cycling the ignition on the car gets it to work again.

    Neither of these problems occur using the original (older) Bluetooth module. Hopefully these errors will be corrected in a future update.
