Yeah, I think it is. In that you'll probably get it even if you don't like it.
If I really wanted to spend money I'd five speed swap it and megasquirt it lol

Bummer. I was unable to get air/fuel ratio, either commanded or measured. I did get throttle position percentage. Imagine I posted a screenshot with both a/f gauges on zero and the throttle position at 11.4% -- I pushed my old phone into service for this but haven't yet got around to configuring everything after installing Cyanogenmod on it.

Speaking of which, if you've got an old Droid X and want to run KitKat on it, TWRP and CM11 will do the trick just fine if you don't clobber your radio drivers in the process. My old Droid never got OTA'd beyond Gingerbread, so it's kinda nice seeing a less outdated OS on it. Not that it'd be anything less than frustrating to try to actually use it as a phone with its relatively low horsepower, but it's handy for things like running an endoscope or the Torque app -- and if I drop the thing into the engine fan, I'll be more upset about tweaking the fan than destroying the phone.

If it's something you're going to use a lot, a recently obsoleted but still perfectly capable tablet can be bought new for less than fifty bucks on eBay. I'm going to snag a handful of them before too long for a project I'm thinking on, but one is going into the toolbox to take over the old Droid's job. Bigger display == more betterer.

I actually have a netbook size computer (maybe not its only got a ten inch screen?) Full keyboard running Windows 7 I use for tuning, I'll try and find an app for it because it has Bluetooth capabilities and the battery lasts forever

That's certainly netbook size -- the least inconvenient size for inside the cab but (I've found it to be) too small for comfortable use on the bench, too large for under the hood, and an excuse for a bleeding head wound if you try to use it while rolling around on a creeper under a vehicle.

The blutooth adapter won't tell you AFR either, it will only show trim.

Finally got my new battery and tested out the adapter, my upstream o2 sensor is bad or something
Included in the pics is a list of supported sensors



















A little confused why it shows vacume with it off, and it always shows throttle position so im kinda confused about that lol<br/>And now my interior lights work but dont go out. Lmao
