It's worth the money tons of forums use it.

 

Is there any other good forums for schneider drivers or just other good trucking forums

I've seen a few other trucking forums but I landed on this one. This layout and amount of information on here it seemed like the one to be on. Not sure about other SNI forums or chat places this is the only one I have found. I use TapaTalk for this forum and I belong to 3 jeep forums as well. The app loads quick and looks clean and does its job pretty good.

 

FYI!

For those of you who don't know, there are a few ways to buy a little extra time on the electronic logs in case of unforeseen circumstances such as today where the 1st and 2nd rest areas were full, and then the flying j was full. I was 21 miles from the French Camp OC, where there would be definite parking, but I only had 16 minutes of drive time left. For cases like these, where you don't want to get an hours of service violation but have no available options and could use a little more time, there are 2 main options.

Option 1: After being logged off duty for 5 minutes press ctrl alt del, enter, enter. This will restart your Qualcomm and usually allows enough time to go 4-6 miles before restarting and auto logging into drive.

Option 2: After being logged off duty for 5 minutes press ctrl alt del, enter, enter. This will also restart your Qualcomm but after it shuts off and comes back on with a blue screen that says Qualcomm press ctrl alt del again. This will put up a black screen with a little flashing white line. This screen will stay on until you press ctrl alt del, then it will continue to restart the Qualcomm. Theoretically you could drive all day like that without logging any drive time, but expect to get fired. I'd recommend only using it in case of emergencies and not more then 15 miles maximum.

 

I wonder what regulatory would recommend?

 

The qualcomm still logs your hours

 

Next time hit me up I'll shoot u the apk for free and lemme know if u need a truck stop,Walmart,rest area scale house etc.... all wrapped up in one

 

Anything similar for us Iphone folks????
