I'm still playing with mine, so I can't say that I've figured it all out yet. But I used to use a Scan Gauge II mounted to my steering column and I watched instant MPG, trip MPG, water temp (until I got up to temp) and trans temp. This is way more info than the scan gauge provided.

Anyone using this app on a truck with HPT 2bar SD OS? I recently got it and a bluetooth ELM327 and it works fine on my Tahoe but I cannot get it to scan on my truck. Phone connects to the OBDII and I can tell Torque is communicating with it as all the lights start flashing when opened but when I go to Realtime Scan it gets stuck on "checking model..." and never starts scanning.
EDIT:
Nevermind, figured it out. There was a setting towards the bottom of the profile settings labled "use alternate OBD header" which needed to be unchecked.

I just got in my Bluetooth adapter today off Amazon & started messing around with different senor readings but am confused by.....
Fuel Trim bank 1 sensor 1 & Fuel Trim bank 1 sensor 3 both read what I expect & constantly have minute fluctuations.
Whereas Fuel Trim bank 1 sensor 2 & Fuel Trim bank 1 sensor 4 are both locked in at 99.2% & never vary. Why? What are those? Are they ok? Bad/indications of something?
The engine isn't giving me any real problems of that high idle at start up until it hits operating temp that results in about 14mph at idle for a few minutes.

Best that I can figure out through multiple searches & not restricting searches to just GMs is that that fuel trim would be "perfect" at 100%, but is pretty much never gonna happen.
Love to have any additional info that anybody might have about this.

I have a gauge for that

No, Trims would be perfect at 0%. Trims are fueling corrections. If the engine calibration is 100% perfect, there would be no need for trims at all! The factory calibration is for a huge range of possible conditions, and thus, trims are necessary to make sure fueling is correct in all situations.
