Oft erased during download
I was updating my Version 1 oft and knocked the usb cable loose. All info was wiped. When I connect it to the car ,it only shows my old tune and the ecu info won't read or write. Oft shows as new and unused. I have a feeling I'm stuck with the installed tune on the car. Any help?

Go to Openflash manager and see if you can update oft again, somtimes they come good after second update. If not try erasing oft, then remarry to car, but your current tune will become what oft thinks is stock |

FIXED, OFT support came to the rescue with a restore solution.
Here are the recovery instructions for your OFT Serial number. This process will erase your OFT, making your device "new" again, and ready for installation on a new car. First, navigate to "C:/Openflash" In this directory, look for a FOLDER named as your OFT serial number: E0040100XXXXXXXX If this folder exists, please connect your OFT and launch Openflash Manager. This *should* successfully recover your OFT. If the folder does not exist, or your OFT is still not working properly, read on. Please download and install the software found here -> http://www.alientech.to/xnote/sw/pwg...overySetup.exe
Without disconnecting, launch Openflash Manager, and allow the software to finalize any updates as needed.
After OpenFlash Manager loads again, take a look at your OFT screen. What do you see as the background image?
Download the proper template for your OFT, and go to the Template tab in Openflash manager. Choose the brwose button and select the template file you've downloaded. Select "Start". Allow this operation to finish. HELP: Which version OFT do I have? OpenFlash Tablet (v1) Template File (updated 5.27.2019) OpenFlash Tablet 2 (v2) Template File (updated 5.27.2019)
Lastly, the recovery software will only run successfully one time for any unique (authorized) serial number. Uninstall the recovery software from your PC when finished. Let me know how it goes Best Regards, ______________________________________ The Openflash Performance Team www.openflashperformance.com |

Version 1 oft, When I connect it to the car ,it only shows my old tune and the ecu in
It sounds like the connection between your Version 1 OFT and your car isn't working correctly. If the OFT isn't correctly connecting to your car, it won't be able to read or write any data. The first step is to make sure that the cable is securely connected to both the OFT and your car's OBD port. If that doesn't work, you may need to try a different cable to make sure it isn't a cable issue. If that still doesn't work, you may need to update the firmware on your OFT to make sure it is compatible with your car. There could be several reasons for it. According to, the key should be in the ON position and the OFT cable should be fully seated. If the issue persists, try disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes and then reconnecting it before flashing the "STOCK" tune from the original slot in OFT[2]. If these steps do not work, you can contact Openflash Performance support for further assistance. If you are still unable to get the OFT to connect to the car, you may need to contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
