    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    Yes indeed, Enode would be an excellent connection method, without adding an OBD dongle, to have the SOC in real time!

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    The ABRP chat page concerning Enode and our MG4 seems to be inactive for 1 month, there is nothing new, no recent update, nothing ... https://abrp.featurebase.app/en/p/enode-for-mg-cars-mg4 However Enode is still present on the car connection menu for ABRP Premium subscribers who have...

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    I agree with you : It would be necessary to be able to link the activation of Enode with the vehicle's power-ON, so the problem of recurring connections in OFF mode of the car would be solved! Otherwise, this link to ABRP by Enode is unusable as is...

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    OK sounds interesting. Currently I have to turn on and off the OBD dongle (to avoid a security alert when I leave and lock the car). I am happy to try Enode but how do I do this? What steps to follow please? At first, you must be registred as an ABRP Premium user. Secondly, you must request...

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    Enode replaces the OBD dongle used by ABRP to retrieve the SOC of the MG4, so with Enode, you no longer have to connect a dongle to the car's OBD port! For the moment, I have only used Enode and ABRP on a few relatively short journeys (max 3/4 hour), but each time Enode perfectly transmitted the...

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    There is an application in France called Dreev which uses Enode to connect to the MG4. This application, which connects our electricity supplier and the MG4, works perfectly for me, although I don't really understand the point of this application... But this means that Enode manages to connect...

    Yes, but Enode is still in beta version !

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    Enode communicates with SAIC servers, this is how it retrieves the battery SOC, GPS position, etc... Hence the interest of this new possibility of connection between ABRP and the MG4! https://developers.enode.com/api/capabilities/vehicle With Enode, all you have to do is enter your iSmart...

    ABRP and Enode instead of OBD dongle !

    Hello everyone! ABRP has published on demand (on their forum) a beta version (only for ABRP Premium version owners !) where the user has the possibility of connecting their MG4 using Enode rather than with an OBD dongle to obtain the battery SOC in real time. I think that it's still a more...

    MG4 internet, data limits

    dhoogland said: I actually had access to data traffic again on September 1st from 12 p.m., but that only lasted until September 6th! Check made on the car, I have 1.68 GB used from August 10 to September 10, I therefore exceed the quota of 1 GB ... however, I only used ABRP (trip to Brittany)...

    Leave an OBD dongle permanently connected with ABRP without triggering the alarm !

    "I use a Veepeak OBD 2 dongle and it’s been plugged in without issue since the day I bought the car." If you use a smartphone to use ABRP with Android Auto or CarPlay, this is normal, but if, like me, you use ABRP on a Carlinkint 5 8/128 box, my DIY is very useful, because the USB port of the...

    Leave an OBD dongle permanently connected with ABRP without triggering the alarm !

    "A Carlinkit device replaces the phone's wired connection. As such the device remains connected to the USB, even if your phone is out of the car, and the phone might still have a wireless/Bluetooth connection to the device." My Carlinkit 5 8/128 completely replaces a smartphone: it is autonomous...

    Leave an OBD dongle permanently connected with ABRP without triggering the alarm !

    "Surely that would only apply if you left your phone attached to the USB in the car when you locked it?" That's true !

    Leave an OBD dongle permanently connected with ABRP without triggering the alarm !

    But I think you are using ABRP on your smartphone, not on a Carlinkit 5, because as it is connected to a USB port on the MG4, and the USB ports remain powered for several minutes after locking the doors, there is a high probability of triggering the alarm in this specific case, either just after...

    Leave an OBD dongle permanently connected with ABRP without triggering the alarm !

    It depends on the dongle you are using and the way you use it, that is to say with a smartphone or with a Carlinkit 5 type box, like me... Some trigger the alarm, others do not. What OBD dongle model are you using ?
