XML for 50855085 EDM 2014 SST now available

Hello,

I have created a xml definition for the 50855085 EDM 2014 SST Evo X.
As far as I know was there is no definition available for the public.
I have uploaded mine to Github. Feel free to contribute to it and please commit any changes to github so we can all benefit from it

best regards
Bastian

Hi Bastian.

Good work.

I remember taking a quick look at a ROM ID with second set of four digits a repeat of the first. I found that the ROM ID's memory address was off by two bytes in the XML. Reckon you have the same issue here.

The example I saw was "50850002", but yours might differ. Without revising the "internalidaddress" in the XML header, you wouldn't know if it was 0002 or something else.

Take a look at memory address 5002e in the ROM to find out the actual ROM ID, then revise the XML like this:

Code:

<rom>
<romid>
<xmlid>50850002</xmlid>
<internalidaddress>5002e</internalidaddress>
<internalidhex>50850002</internalidhex>
<make>Mitsubishi</make>
<market>EDM</market>
<model>Lancer</model>
<submodel>Evolution X</submodel>
<transmission>SST</transmission>
<year>20XX</year>
<flashmethod>mitsucan</flashmethod>
<memmodel>M32186F8</memmodel>
<checksummodule>mitsucan</checksummodule>
</romid>

</rom>

Note that you may need something other than 0002. Use whatever you find in the specific ROM image you've worked through to provide a definition. I haven't touched it in git, as I don't know which ROM it's based on, exactly. The above tweak will clear that up, though.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Rich
