Cannot get my hw1.0 with the otg cable to work on my gen 1 rx8

Works fine.with all my other tekin rs, and rs pro's.

Its displays the rx8 name on the top left corner though nothing pops up for setup or other mode changes.

I'm using my Samsung S4 phone.

Any suggestions or ideas anyone?

You must update the Rx8 software to the most current version for the app to work.

Go here and make sure you have the latest HW software on your PC: www.teamtekin.com/hotwire.html

Im looking to upgrade my phone to a LG G3 I did some research and it supports USB OTG. Im gonna assume that is what I need. I know you said you cant check every device out there and all of you say to try it but I have not bought anything yet since i would like to make sure it works before I buy a hotwire2.0 and upgrade my phone to a G3.
So can you at least confirm that if my device supports OTG and its Android version is 4.4.+ it should work with the Hotwire 2.0? Provided I get the correct cable....

Thanks in advance for your reply

Yes, if the device supports OTG and you have the correct cable, etc.

I'm running 4.4.4 on my S4 and have no issues.

Just the one cable. Costs a bit more, but worth it in my opinion.

So Randy this one takes out the cable that is supplied with Hotwire. It would go directly from the device to the Hotwire correct?

Correct. The cable goes directly from the hotwire to your phone.

No, both the Hotwire 1.0 and 2.0 can work the app. You need an OTG cable for your android device, download the app, etc.

Thanks Tinman.
