Sorry, what I meant was you guys open it up and read it (or get the bin from TIS2WEB) and add that binary to the software to allow for flashing support. Isn't that more or less how you support the A40 TCM?Quote:

I think there would be legal issues distributing GM's files, there is other problems associated with that process because TIS2WEB only keeps the latest files, if ever there is an older truck that we never saw a specific segment for then that truck can't be tuned unless it goes to the dealer to get the same update. I think Paul would possibly punch me in the nose if I suggested we need to monitor TIS every day for new updates for every possible LML ECM segment out there and then distribute the results in the software. For the moment GM have won, if you want to let them know, buy a 2011 FORD or Dodge and send GM a letter explaining why.Quote:

Who knows you'd probably have to hire rain man and the biggest super computer to do it all.Quote:

But obviously the controller is different?
If its possible to take the ECM apart and change 'something' in the ECM to 'unlock' it (so it could be flashed/read normally with the V2), I wonder if you guys could do that based on a Core exchange program?
IE, you send in your stock LML ECM, pay a couple hundred bucks or something for the 'unlocking/modding service', and then EFILive sends back an ECM thats been taken apart and "unlocked" and can now be flashed normally like the LB7-LMM ECM's????
Bullydog cracked the LML... Along with the new Ford.
No chance of that happening.Quote:

We haven't found that to be an issue, they can be read out, Smarty might choose not to read it to save time, or to ensure their tune is not applied over another hand held tuner.Quote:

Can a Tech II tell a guy which OS and cals are in the LML so he could then check and compare to what he wanted to flash in using EFI Live?
I don't know the details how they did it. The "cracked" term is what I used. I probably could of use a more efficient term I guess? Hacked, Reverse Engineered, etc...Quote:
