WTF....i want a COS5

[joecar]

just tried 3 and 4 as you stated....says the efilive update server can not be contacted that it can possibly be down for up updates and whatnot....guess i'll try again in a min...so i need to do the firmware on my handheld again? maybe this will fix my problem, everytime i connected my serial cable i had to set it up to take ser pid's and selected innovate every time because it wouldnt save those changes

Is your Windows Firewall letting you thru...?

[joecar]

Then once you've gotten thru the firewall and updated to the latest (ST/TT build 84, EE build 44),
then you can update bootblock and firmware to 2.06.02 and 2.06.06 (do the bootblock first).

so i just downloaded 7.5.5 build 84
and downloaded the 8.1.2 build 42...did the update on this...how do i tell indeed that it took the update to build 44?
Also my FS firmware and bootblock...how do i update/upgrade these?

[Kurtomac]

wow so im a dumbass...got my Bootblock 2.06.02 Firmware programmed 2.06.06 7.5.5 build 84 8.1.2 build 42 EE downloaded and updated...still not sure how to tell if i got build 44 on that
so joe...next up on me getting going on the cos5...get a SD card so i can try out BBL...still havnt tried it...waiting on my relpacement sLC1 cable...in the meantime i guess i can copy paste all current calibrations to the ETC M6 OS 12212156....after i do that and flash the cal and OS and make sure its running properly....keep a copy of this....then flash the appropriate Cos5 OS only then flash my cal only of the ETC M6 12212156 OS that we mentioned
all this sound correct?

[joecar]

Start EFILive Explorer (EE), goto the Firmware tab, click About... you should see a pop up saying Build 44.

You have it... just add the red parts:

use copy-with-labels / paste-with-labels...

Then:
- save file,
- do full flash,
- read back 1221256 from PCM and save to a new file,
- make sure car runs.

Then:
- full flash 02020005 (COS5),
- immediately cal-only flash from the saved 12212156 file,
- read back 02020005 from PCM and save to a new file,
- make sure can still runs.

You may have to set the out-of-range tables to in-range values (either min+1 or max-1)... save file, cal-only flash.

man when are they going to have a compare feature so you can compare tunes with diff OS's...make this cal swap over way faster!

+1 it would make cal swaps way more easier...

My understanding is that the tables are located at different memory locations and not necessarily in the same order, and not necessarily have the same axes (may be transposed), so it makes the differencing algorithm complicated.

Resurrecting a dead thread, any faster way of doing this come about yet? I am copying and pasting to get from a 99 os to an 02 os so I can then convert to cos5. I assume all the differences between the os's make it less than easy to design a way to automatically compare them...

[macca33]

I believe it is still the same situation.

Thank you, CTL C and CTL V are my new best friends I guess
