Subscribed. Just received my code this morning, very thankful for that. I haven't tried it out yet but I'll report my success.

 

Win 7 64bit works fine for me.

Win 8 32bit works also fine for me.

All with a Ediabas compatible interface.

 

Alright looks like I'm the first one with an issue. I copy pasted the key into the program and I keep on getting the error "Siemens Flash Tool has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."
The exe is still 200something kb so I think it didn't decrypt. I feel like the registration key may have caused an error because there were spaces at the top. Is there any way to delete the program history from my registry?

The machine is Windows 7 64 Bit. Alright, using regedit I found the entry for the tool. I used the search function in regedit and it came out as "SIEMENS FLASH TOOL." For me, it is located at Computer\HKEY_USERS\numbers\Software\SIEMENS FLASH TOOL


Okay so I reregistered it and I got this error:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging

For example:

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

Try to install lastest FTDI chipset drivers and make sure the USB to K-Line adapter is plugged in and has received a COM port by windows.

This got it working at my computer where I had the same issue.

 

The wiki states to send your hardware ID, which one is ment by this? The serial port?

 

Download the software and install it. You will get a popup with the hardware ID#. Send this along with your e46fanatics user name to the email provided in the wiki

I have to take a look inside the sourcecode, when I'm home. The software throws me the same error now.

It seems to throw this only on 64bit OSes, but I know it was working some days ago on Windows 10 1607

 

I don't mean to be off topic or disrespectful,

But did you came to an arrangement with his family? Last I heard his family shut down the website and didn't want anything to do with it. But in the end, he was a really talented guy. Would be a shame if all his work would just sit on some disk never to be seen again!

 

I have the sourcecode, technically we could improve the tool even more, or github it.

No arrangements have been done.

 

+1 for github

 

Is there any way we (the users) can contribute or help?

 

Well, to make the source better readable, we have to rename all the method and class names to the real ones.

The V1.1.1.4 was obfuscated by ObfuserEx v0.60, this version can be reversed very easily, but the newer version of the flashtool, v1.1.2.2, uses ObfuserEx v1.0.0, which doesn't keep those names.

If someone is skilled enough to do that, I will github the non-obfuscated sourcecode.

 

This looks interesting. Are there any pre-mapped tunes that I can download for my 2004 330ci?

 

i dont know how but my pc changed HW ID and after that i am unable to use mssflashtool

i can contribute/donate or help for this thread...

Win10?

 

I am having trouble downloading the file. I am getting this error:

I am trying to download this on macOS 10.11.6. I use a MacBook Pro to dual-boot Win10. Same error appears on my iPhone as well.

I am trying to download this on macOS 10.11.6. I use a MacBook Pro to dual-boot Win10. Same error appears on my iPhone as well.

My browser gave a warning about it being a virus but I reuploaded it to mega.nz for you

Microsoft Security Essentials detects it as "Trojan:Win32/Bitreo.A"
Malwarebytes didn't detect anything

 

So as I already said in some other threads and on facebook, this software was obfuscated by Kim to protect it against the things we are doing now.

This type of obfuscating software is also often used to make malware executables undetectable against antivirus scan engines. Thats why your Sonicwall says "Win32.ObfuserEx3" because thats the type of scrambling software Kim used.

There is absolutely no trace of any malicious code inside the flasher.

Maybe you guys should just stop downloading files for your car at work

 

Ah, I was actually in a library at the time. Worked fine at home and on my cellular connection. Whoops.

Keygen:

You sir, just gave away the last piece of control we had over the distribution of that software.

Now every ebaygarage is able to do full flashes and ISN extraction.

 

..

 

All these things were possible before, just required more efforts to do them.
The one, who made EWS-free full flash available, started the whole thing.

 

At least, you stopped further development by doing so. Congrats, very well done... :tsk:

 

In case anybody wondering why I do this, a few people including myself where discussing some ways to keep this software alive in an ethical way.

With the need of writing an email for a key, we were atleast aware of who got a key sent and could stop once anyone had problems with it.

But this is now obsolete at least from my side, feel free to do the deobfuscation and renaming in the v1.1.2.2 Or github it, or whatever.

 

Hopefully, no one will have any ethical issues with it.

 

 

You're right, I posted how to get rid off the registration feature, which is not needed anymore once we continue the development of this tool and make the unpacked sourcecode compilable.

But now people share the program and keygen without even knowing about the real author and this only is my concern. I could have released a keygen an hour after I got my hands on the flasher, but instead we discussed how we can create a better solution.

We came to a solution that is obviously not accepted, so it's okay for me, but don't expect any more help from my side.

 

So far only 6 people have downloaded the keygen. If he removes it, will it be fine?

 

All credits for this software go Kim Freding, the author.
We can put this to the first post of this topic.
As I understand, no one was going to make money on this software, even his family.

 

I do agree that you shouldn't make it this easy. In my opinion you should take the link down.

 

I deleted the link.

 

Me too. Hopefully everything is better now.

 

This software is working great! A little scary with all the ant-virus popups I was getting, but it simplifies the whole tuning process by a lot! I'm hoping now that the keygen has been deleted and since so few people had access to it you all will continue development on it. It's a great piece of software.
