When did you request the ROM? Send him an email maybe something got lost.

David has been really busy as of late...

You might send him a reminder after you paid on Paypal. I sent him money for another map yesterday and got a reply with the new ROM this morning. I did donate more the $50 though.

No one else probably modifies the throttle tables as much as me.

The problem is the V2. An identical V1 rom drives awesome.

Help a noob out.

On topic for thread, just need a idea if i'm going about this the right way.

Bought XmodV2, have existing tuned rom on file, load both into ecuflash, click compare roms, copy and paste all tables that contain differences from existing rom to new rom, setup new tables and features as needed. Am I on track, or am I going to explode car?

New rom id is 53040210, old was 53040010, does this need a bench flash or is ecuflash able to do this in car now?

Hundreds of searches and I've read enough to tune a space shuttle, but just these basics are hard to find.

Cheers.

You're doing it right.

As far as bench flashing I haven't seen any word of the version of ECUFlash that supports the V2 requirement eliminating the bench flash method. I did just notice v1.44.4347 was out yesterday but from the thread I saw that was a fix for a certain issue not related to V2 flashing support.

i haven't flashed yet but it looks like bench flash isn't necessary anymore. directions state to use newest ecuflash version and run a supplied registry edit to enable writing to protected areas of the ecu.

...'Run a supplied registry edit'... If you could point me in the direction of said instructions, would be appreciated. I do recall reading something along those lines but have zero idea on where I read it.

Thanks again.

It's included in the email he sends you when you buy the tune. Worked like a charm for me on a older version

I've been running V2 since the beginning of March before updated ECUFlash was released and the registry setting was available. I've benched flashed my ECU probably 10-15 times testing in the beginning when it was determined a 2010 V2 based ROM will not work on a 2011+ ECU.

I have a 2011 V2 ROM ready to flash over the current 2013 V2 ROM on my 2011 ECU I've just been waiting for the ability to not have to bench flash.

So, what is the setting?

so the registry patch (that I send you, but if didn't just let me know) lets V2 be flashed without benching the ECU.

it doesn't, however, allow a completely different ROMID to be flashed - where that flash would change other areas of the protected segment.

Just saw your email, one more bench flash it is.

As always thanks David!

So going from 53040010 to 53040210 would need the patch?

If so, would need to get that from you mate, wasn't on my email.

got home yesterday, played the copy paste table game for a while then flashed. the patch worked perfect. flashed V2 over with no bench needed.


the only hiccup i'm running into is an error trying to use Live Tuner. i get this error:


i know the live tuner instructions say: "Live Tuner utilises the definitions included in ECUFlash, this means that Live Tuner looks at the rommetadata directory for defintion files, it also means that any errors received during a ROM Load need to be resolved in that location."

my laptop is windows 8, has .NET 4.0. the rommetadata directory is in C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenECU\EcuFlash\rommetadata\mitsubishi\evo\
has definition files for my base rom, rax patch, and obviously definitions for v2. searching MAF Scaling in the 3 xml files but everything looked okay.

if you proceed with live tuner and select a drop down item this is the error:
Code:
