Paul, good one, thanks for the info.

Can't open a file pulled from one of my autocals. The serials match. What now?

To allow you to edit security restricted files in V7 you must first clear the security restrictions using the V8 software. You must have your master V2 connected (that is so only you can remove the security settings) then click on the [Reset] button shown highlighted with red in the image below, then re-save the file.

Just remember that after editing it, to re-instate any security settings that you want active (using the V8 software) before sending it back out to the customer.

Awesome! Works no problem, figured it was something easy like that.

Was full flash disabled in V7? I do not see the icon lit up anymore even with my cable plugged in first.

Thank you!

Full flash has not been disabled in V7.
What controller type is the file that you loaded when the full-flash icon was not showing up?

Just tried it with E38, T43 and several ls1 files. No luck.

Sounds like V7 is not seeing FlashScan.
Select Help->About in the V7 tune software and it will show you the license level that it is using.

Note if V8 is running you should right click on the FlashScan icon in the "system Tray" (which is at the end of the windows task bar) and select "Disconnect". That will allow V7 access to FlashScan.
Or you can just shutdown all EFILive V8 applications, the FlashScan icon will disappear once all V8 apps are closed.

Had one of the v8 apps running in the background, missed it. Thanks again.

i'm attaching a document i created as i have multiple dealer/customers that havne't had to do manual firmware updates before. I figure this might be a useful place for it, and hopefully all the steps make it easy enough for anyone new or having trouble with it, even though some of the problems have already been covered in this thread.

Have not seen this problem posted yet.

When using EFILive scan & tune, F5, BBX.
When setting up selected PIDs, PID properties, Custom PID properties. The quick select unit are not showing saved when selecting OK.

While BBL the V2 displays metric, but playback the saved log file displays the correct units that were selected.

When adding pre selected Calculated PID names to V7 Scan Tool Compatibility Settings. The PIDs don't show in the logged playback file. You have to manually select the PID to display in the playback. They are in the option.txt.
