Torque app problem

So I have a mini OBDII (ELM327) Bluetooth from eBay. I have a Galaxy TAB 4. I was able to PAIR the OBD, but when I open torque it connects for 10 seconds and then it shows it cannot connect to the ECU of the car. Whats wrong it connect for a good 10 seconds.

Oh
Maybe I should get a different OBD.
Did you buy the Torque App? Or you rooted device and cracked the app? LOL

My ELM327 does that too. It'll stay connected with a laptop, but not my phone.

I had this problem with my carista app, on my friends car, but all I delete was delete all my paired bluetooth devices and press unpar on my galaxy s3 then redo the connection after restarting the device. I don't know if this is a similar issue.

If your laptop supports Bluetooth you could probably use Toyota tech steam
