I just downloaded the Android Open Vehicle app and configured it for our
Roadster. It gives me an error message that it can't connect and
recommends checking my passwords. I've double-checked the passwords and I
think they are right.
I don't see anywhere to enter my OVMS server user name, which the iOS app
requires. Is that the problem?

Lee,
Looks good. I merged it, and submitted v3.2.2 to google play.
Regards, Mark.

Arguably the server account should be per-vehicle but I'm guessing the
thought was that anyone who has multiple OVMS vehicles will have them
all
on the same server and making that app-wide means you only have to
enter
username, password and server IP once.
Of course none of this is any help for figuring out how to do it on
Android...
As I dug-into the Android code better to hard-code the address change
I discovered - to my delight - that the app server address is stored in
a per-car data object. Yay! So this is nice. I'm going to give this
another shot.
Here is the patch. Someone with privs can apply it and commit these
changes to the repository if it meets with their approval.
It's a very small enhancement - basically permitting an interface to
sel_server in the CarData object. The interface is right where it
should be, IMO: right where you enter the vehicle info and passwords.
The default is left to "tmc.openvehicles.com", but the user now has the
capability to modify it (on a per-car basis, even).
I did not change the sel_server initialization value of
"tmc.openvehicles.com". I could have changed this to "" as with the
other CarData strings, but it probably makes little difference. Leaving
it to initialize with "tmc.openvehicles.com" possibly it could be
confusing to someone later who doesn't recognize that the initialized
value is always overwritten by the configured value (as with the other
CarData strings which are initialized to ""). If someone cares they can
modify that at the top of CarData.java.
This patch also makes one obvious grammatical correction in a string
appearing on the same page layout.
If there is any concern just look at the patch - it's a very, very
benign set of changes. This e-mail is longer than the patch is.
Thanks,
Lee.

I'm using my built .apk instead of the one from Google Play, but my
source code is now identical to the one in the git repository.
Mine is working fine for me.
Admittedly, I do get confused about which one is the server password and
which one is the module password, and so I just swap them around if I
get the password error. Maybe the Android app has the two mixed-up?
As for the app not needing the your account username... I've never
needed it on the Android app before. I think that it just uses the car
info.
Thanks,
Lee.
