Check the Rom Raider thread. It's happening. In the meantime, you can make a donation to ROM Raider.

Nope - flashing capable beta has been out for a while, just waiting on the next logging enabled beta.

If you have a Rom Raider account and want to be listed as a donator, be sure to give them your login. I didn't and I'm still not listed as a donator. Doesn't really matter, though.

I wasn't offered that specific information, As far as I could see he sent me a new version of the Beta that included a bootloader with new firmware for my cable. ***pure speculation*** So it may have been a cable related and not a software related glitch ***pure speculation***

I am quite happy to have my car back, I've been DD'ing a Odyssee touring, faster, but no canyon monster lol

That makes sense - I recall him mentioning that since the bootloader was not resident on these newer roms, that he would patch it in. That means there's definitely development still happening in the background...

I dropped in on the guys at Bullet (developers of the Innovate/Cusco Sprintex kit) today on my way up to Brisbane. Showed them what has been developed in the last couple of months with EcuFlash and RomRaider. Needless to say they are interested in looking at any good tuning option that is an alternative to what they are currently using.

I've been getting a lot of emails/messages so I may have missed some while trying to sort them during the time I was working remotely.

Just posted some SSM over CAN info derived from sniffing Techstream USB connection on the RomRaider board.

So I pulled the stock ROM with Ecuflash. No problems. My car has the ZA1JA01C ROM from the factory. However, Ecuflash has no definitions for the file.

Then I open the openflash ZA1JA01C ROM. No definitions. Wants me to develop them. No go.

Then I open the ZA1JA00C rom. It says the checksum needs to be corrected. My understanding is that correcting this then flashing is what bricked Skullworks's car.

Questions then.

Can I flash the ZA1JA00C rom?
Should I modify the definitions file in some way to get the ZA1JA01C rom to flash? I believe they're the same ROM with a slightly different name. Or perhaps I'm adding the wrong ecu defs somehow. I don't think I am, though.
Should I fix the checksum? My understanding is a big NO.

Thanks! My intention is to make a guide for this to make it easier for others.
