I guess some scanners, like the one you own, try ISO first and because they never try CAN bus, the issue doesn't happen. I will see if I can buy a Torque.

Just an FYI "Torque" is an app not a scanner per say, there's a free version of the "Torque" app, Torque Lite and a Pro version that they charge a small fee for.
Torque — OBD2 Performance and Diagnostics for your Vehicle
Torque Lite (OBD2 & Car) - Apps on Google Play
Torque Pro (OBD 2 & Car) - Apps on Google Play
Both versions have to be used with a compatible OBDII dongle that you plug in the OBDII port and then connect via Bluetooth with an Android phone, as far as I know there's not a version of Torque that is compatible with Iphone.
My phone I use everyday is an Iphone but I have an old Android phone that I used with Torque.
There are many OBDII dongles out there that are compatible with Torque, the one linked below is the one I have and some other members here also use this dongle.

This OBDII dongle is also compatible with many other diagnostic apps that you may want to try as well if you find you don't like the Torque app but most people use Torque.
You can find a list of other apps on their website.
