Flash pro upload fail

[Anthonyfk8]

Hi,

I got my new 2020 type r jail broken at an authorized dealer here in Toronto NextmodXAPH.

While they were flashing the vehicle three times the flash pro failed to upload giving it an error message: failure information: code 0x7f step 15 address 0x1FFF0.

Any reason this would happen and how do I now successfully upload the flash pro to my ecu?

Thank you!

What was the version of software used to upload?

[Anthonyfk8]

Do not have the car of flashpro currently as I am at work but I can confirm it is the latest software as I checked it on my own last night as well.

We're like to know the software version and also get the feedback information with the FlashPro plugged into the vehicle.

[Anthonyfk8]

Sounds good. I will confirm when I am in the vehicle. Thanks for the assistance.

The error code is consistent with using a 2017-2019 jailbreak on a 2020 ECU, but the support information will tell us.

[Hondata]

Get the feedback information - it's the jailbreak.

[Anthonyfk8]

I sent the support information from flashpro manager. Attached is also the versions. I informed APH that it most likely wasn't loading due to the jailbreak. Any support how to jailbreak for them or should I just wait till Hondatas instant jail break is released.

And this.

First, you could be waiting forever for an instant jailbreak. Second, the instant jailbreak will not fix a 2017-2019 boot sector in a 2020 ECU.

[Anthonyfk8]

Okay I understand. What is the best way to approach this situation? Ship the ecu to you guys at Hondata?

Sorry could you clarify what you mean by a 17-19 boot sector in a 2020? Are you saying my ECU cannot be instant jail broken due to APH tried to use the 2017-2019 method?

[Hondata]

The ECU can be jailbroken, but it requires a different method than the 2017-2019 ECU. I don't think most tuning shops are aware of this.

None of the 2020 ECUs can be instant jailbroken; this is for other reasons.

Okay, I understand what you mean. I will wait till Hondata offers instant jailbreak for 2020 or could I ship mine to you guys?

And any chance you could confirm my ECU is okay and no damage has been done from trying to jail broken from the shop i brought it too using the information sent to you guys?

I would greatly appreciate it as others in the community have been saying that could potentially give me issues.

[Hondata]

If the ECU has been incorrectly jailbroken then we cannot fix it. If the shop that did the jailbreak made a backup then it is fairly easy for them to reset the ECU back to stock.

The 2020 may never get an instant jailbreak; in any case if the ECU has already been jailbroken, then the above applies.
