i am running a $130 ebay andriod head unit with msdroid connected to my ms3 basic via a USB cord.
I could not get the head unit to connect to the bluetooth adapter on the ms3. so using a USB cable is a must it seems.
the setup works well, except some times the output will jump around and freeze up, which requires closing the app and restarting. i suspect a bad usb cable, will try a new one soon.

I tried it as well. My plan was to use bluetooth, but evidently it's common for Android Head Units to not support data transfer via bluetooth, at least not in the way that is required by MSdroid/Megasquirt.
I really don't want to use USB, because I think i'd rather just use my laptop for that if I need to tune.

I do have an issue with the connection constantly dropping out though. This happens with my phone when I run Android Auto as well. It could be the HU, or it could be the quality of cables supplied with the HU. I'll try to replace the cables first.
