MSS6x Flasher - Now released!

Does this mean the non-modified cables will be able to write to the DME safely? or just that they won't cause a brick scenario but still fail?

Should be able to write to the DME safely.

Should be able to write to the DME safely.

That's a pretty big improvement! Hopefully that should prevent all those unaware / careless (even with the warning) still going ahead and flashing, then disabling their car because they 'weren't sure'.

Yep, I wish I knew the fix was so simple 6 years ago when I first wrote the application. Oh well

The ediabaslib firmware is definitely still better -- the write speed is much faster and I overall trust it more, especially for program writes. But for someone who's only flashing once, a standard cable is probably reasonable

Application updated https://github.com/terraphantm/MSS6x...ses/tag/v1.1.0

Version 1.1.0. Multiple updates since last release:

• Updated Ediabaslib to newer release; .Net 4.8.1 now required
• Default port is now COM1 as EdiabasLib dropped support for D2XX on Windows
• RSA Bypass code is improved and notably faster
• Added ability to restore stock (i.e remove RSA bypass and patches)
• Tunes are now automatically flashed after flashing a program instead of having to click the "flash tune" button
• Reads are now done in "programming mode" and should be about twice as fast as before
• Full reads are now saved in both the combined format and in BDM format (separate files)
• If no VIN is found, VIN will be assumed to be AA00000 for file saving purposes
• MSS60 140E and older no longer require an RSA bypass for tune writes (also of note, if you have any software variants between 140E and 220E, please send them to so that I can determine where the exact cutoff is for the RSA bypass requirement)
• Detect if a "pseudo RSA" bypass used by some tuners is present, in which case the loaded file will be flashed without modification (i.e no checksum correction). Recommend manually correcting checksums or disabling checksums if this technique is used
• Decreased size of flash blocks from 254 bytes to 252 bytes - this allows standard D-CAN cables to work without bricking
• More safety checks implemented
• During the RSA bypass, the UC3F censorship routine is now disabled. This does not remove the censorship from the DME (need BDM or mpower32's software for that), but does prevent it from being set again.
• Added ability to request Level 3/4/5 security access to the Advanced Menu. Unclear if there are any uses for level 4/5, but makes it easier to test.
• Now display the "internal" software numbering (i.e v638 for 80E) if it is readable.
• Fixed a few UI issues

Probably more stuff that I'm not remembering. Let me know if you guys have any issues
