OK, I've updated to the latest BB and firmware, all has gone OK so far. I've noticed a couple of things though....
1. I get nothing showing up in the "select PID" screen. As previously, I formatted the config files-system in the V2 then copied over the files. I did use my old options.ini file as I couldn't see a significant difference.
2. DVT for the E38 is there !!!! Woo Hoo :D I've tried a few options out and they seem to work OK, except for the "Idle Speed" adjust. As soon as I activated it the revs rose to 1000 and slowly climbed. No amount of adjusting made any difference.
3. Flash speed for the E38 is *HUGE* now. A full 256kb cal flash was done in 50 seconds! Previously it took about 2:30.
4. Power saving mode works again.
It's all looking pretty good, all I need to know is what the go is with the PID selections. Any ideas?

We're still refining the DVT commands.

The Options.ini file has had a change that you will need to make to your own Options.ini:
Change
*VEHICLES
to
*PID_SELECTIONS

Excellent. PID selections are now working. I'll try some more logging first thing tomorrow.

Thanks again Paul.

I am getting "error code $0194" when I try to write the "Config File" data .
I did the firmware and boot block update , and "formated" the Config Files , then tried to write the new Config Files back in (highlight , Ctrl+A , drag then drop) , it makes it to the end but then gives me the "Error Code $0194 ( Write , file system error 20) , the files are not displayed until I stop EFILive Explorer program and restart it , then they appear , they all seem to be present , just get the error .
FYI : Seems when I copy the T-42 and T-43 .pmm files is when it happens .

I had that same problem. I do not copy all the .ini files just the switch.ini and options.ini files along with the .pmm files. Sometimes I have to try the options.ini a 2nd time by itself and then it works.

I had the same problem. Because we have been rolling updating there is old files eg:

LS1-B
LS1_B

all of the XXX-XXX files (with a dash not an underscore) are not needed and taking up all of the available config space. They are hanging around from a few updates ago when it changed the files names.

Just delete them and copy all of the underscore files over.

Paul,

I'm doing a catch up having missed a couple of patches.

I'm on 2.5.04 Boot (Oct 16th) (firmware 2.5.15 Mar 18th)

The readme PDS says I should...
1. Program Firmware V2.05.16(0326)
2. Program Boot Block V2.05.07(0412)
3. Program firmware V2.05.16 (0412)

I can't find the file for step 1?? I guess it's on the download you've removed.
Steps 2 & 3, should the filenames be xxx(0414).??

Can I ignore step 1 and jump to step 2 or will I toast my FS that way?

If I need the first file could you post on here (or mail me?)

Tks

Jim

There's a user defined setting in the FlashScan setup screen.

Got to looking in the HAPI folder and found several .pmm files along with the Config Folder which contains both .pmm and -.pmm files , can I just delete the Config folder and re-run the zip to replace it ?
And what are the .pmm files doing in the HAPI folder and not in the Config folder ?
I also have a EFLIve Hapi folder in the EFILive Hapi folder , does it need to be there ?
