No need to overpay for the MX+, the VeePeak BLE will work just as well for a fraction of the cost.

I still haven't gotten AlphaOBD. Perhaps one of these days I'll want it. Would you recommend the VeePeak BLE or BLE+?

BLE - $31.99 (linked below)
BLE+ - $37.79 (linked below)

Just like @Rye&coke mentioned, do not get the BLE+, I have not heard good stories from those who have purchased it. I have heard good about the BLE and use it myself.

In response to @1shadowsabre above - couldn't agree more! A friend was asking me just the other day if it was worth having the MX+ and Android tablet - I think the look on my face gave him the answer. On my '14 I made all kind of adjustments to the air suspension including calibrating all new air bags on the four corners, changed the height and fixed the "Ram lean" on the front left corner, programmed the VIN and injector codes for a GDE-tuned ECM, diagnosed DTC's and cleared them, eliminated the fog light drop on high beams, etc. It's a long list.

I do all that with my VeePeak BLE for 1/3 the cost.

Have also successfully turned gear indicator to 'always on' on one truck.

So I got the new ECM swapped out and installed... I am currently in Alfa OBD trying to write the VIN and injector codes, and this is what it is giving me every time. "Failed. Wrong request length or Invalid request format." Not sure what to do now

Triple-check that you're entering the information correctly.

When I search for apps, AlfaOBD Demo comes up. Is that the correct one?

Not if you're wanting to make actual changes. You need the paid version for that.

Demo will let you move through the app and see what's available, but you can't make changes.
