After wiping and redoing Galaxy S7 Dinan App wont work. Any ideas?

Hey Guys,

Looking online and getting no dice on this issue.
I have a Samsung galaxy S7 android 6.0.1 and i used to use the Dinan app on it without issue. I had to reset my phone back to factory settings a few weeks ago. Once i installed the Dinan app again, I can pair my phone to the Dinan device on the car. The Dinan app can SEE the device. It allows me to select the device to connect. I plug in the MAC address numbers it requests. and i get a "Error during connection" message which gives no specifics to diagnose with.

Before i try calling Dinan i thought i'd try here.
Anyone know of any fix for this?

thanks

Solved it. Just for reference if anyone else ever runs into it:

1. I paired the Dinan through the Bluetooth menu on the phone first
2. Doing this somehow screws up connection through the app.

So if you ever set this app up. DO NOT pair the device before hand.
The app apperantly does this when you input the device Mac Adress (allthough it makes no metnion of it).

Im a android newbsauce too. good thing my android buddy helped me figure that out.
