MSS6x Flasher - Now released!

[SYT_Shadow]

It's odd. It worked fine.

I went to the E92, identify DME, then 'read tune'. It reads it and saves it on the drive.
Then I went to the E90, identify DME, then 'read tune'. It reads it as well.

So now all I have to do is go to the E90, take file from the E92 and 'load tune'?

My build date is 2008-04-10 is that early enough?

I don’t think so. The used dme I bought had a build date near there and was locked until I unlocked it.

If you’d be able to reflash your tune afterwards, I suppose you can restore to stock, do a full backup, unlock the dme, restore the backup, flash the tune, and then read the full contents over bdm.

If you can do a BDM backup then it'd be possible to defeat the bypass in there and reflash, but unless you own a very early M3, your DME will be BDM locked.

Shouldn't we be able to bypass tune read protections on the ECUs?

What if I have a tune with read protection but want to remove or add cold start for example? There should be a way to do that

Unfortunately with the way the flash routines are setup on the MSS6x, it's not really doable without wiping out the tune altogether. If you can do a BDM backup then it'd be possible to defeat the bypass in there and reflash, but unless you own a very early M3, your DME will be BDM locked.

I think it's done for tuners IP protection and to force you to go back to the tuner to make any changes.

In order to find out all I have to do is try to read the tune? 'Read tune'?

Yes, try it and let us know how it goes. I was planning to order a new cable and try it out, but haven't yet.

My tunes were encrypted and it was unable to read them. I would imagine you would have the same issue?

I have so many questions...

I bought the special bimmergeeks cable following the instructions in the OP. I probably already have 6 cables that would work but it's best not to brick the ECUs.

I have two E9X M3s, a 2013 6MT E92 and a 2011 DCT E90. Both have different aftermarket tunes on them. Originally the 2013 was the track car and has a catless tune, but now the situation is reversed. I would like to basically swap tunes.
To do this, I 'read tune' from car 1, save the file, then go to car 2 and 'flash tune'?

Sweet!

[Paddy]

have now ordered a cable with EdiabasLib firmware. thank you

[Martyn]

You can try and get the SK depending on whether its responding, I personally woudn't try writing with that cable though.
