The infamous ELM327 OBDII device came without any paper, just a crappy CD with no document related to the device (only some software and drivers thrown on the CD almost randomly).

I tried the following codes without being able to pair it with my HTC Desire HD:

  • 0000, ..., 9999
  • 1234, 2345, 3456, 4567, 5678, 6789, 7890

What other PINs should I try?

The PIN code is 6789 (instead of 0000 or 1234).

It seems that the correct code was already one of the listed ones, still there is a trick: it seems you are able to put the PIN code only one minute after the device was powered.

Is it the one pictured at the Elm327 Bluetooth website?

If so then the passcode should be 1234 although technically they say that the passcode is

" 1234 "

It's been a while since I paired a bluetooth device but I think you only get 4 digits to work with, not 6, and I think only numerics are allowed so no spaces either, which brings us back to "1234"... which you've already tried.
Have a read over the website above and check out the Bluetooth User Manual page, the instructions don't exactly match connecting to a phone like you are trying to do, but maybe they'll give a clue to a step you might have missed or something.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
