Elm327 obd2 Bluetooth sensor recommendation request

Hopefully this is an appropriate subsection... I bought an elm327 that other members have recommended in some other threads. However, I can't leave this one plugged in to use with torque or Harry's lap timer for longer than 5 to 10 minutes before I lose communication and the whole dash shuts down. I throw a cel, U0155, every time without fail and the car goes into limp mode and won't drive.

Since there seems to be quite the variety of Bluetooth obd2 sensors out there, and some have issues with some and not others, I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of an obd2 Bluetooth module that doesn't instantly fail. I understand this may be a somewhat common issue and is easily fixed on the fly, but my car going into limp mode in the middle of a hot lap on race track is no bueno.

Edit: extra note, using with android, not ios

Many thanks,

Mike
