Thread: .HPT to BIN

thats odd, it should not know the difference. if theres another bin with the same osid try that one.


whats your osid? i might have one set up already. then you can just change the vin and try that one. i know the one i got worked for the guy.

the other thing is to make sure the vin # has matching cap letters too. if you put in lower case it may not like it.

i have osid # 12585094 and 12218863 on hand

Thanks for the help guys, serial number was off by 1 number. Finally got the no cat testing bin turned into a .hpt and about to open it with the updated HPT. Its a real PITA when you cant have two versions of HPT installed at once. Just need to figure out how to combine the tunes now. Can I rewrite the vin and serial on any GP to avoid licensing? Out of curiosity

yup, its one way around hpt licensing. why its nice to have a dhp too, it can change a vin number for most pcm's.

ive not used hp, but i hear about the compare two bins option, do that and i guess you can copy over your tune that way .

Right when I think its going to finally work.. "Validate checksum failed. You will be unable to flash or save this file".

Yes trying to open my .hpt file, says i own the license on it tho.

theres a ignore flash checksum in TT, not sure how to use it, the bin i opened has 255 as its value and no other info for it.

then theres always for fun, close out everything, reboot the pc, try the bin again. never know. maybe make a small change to some thing, then save it.

Im looking at that too Scotty, no clue what to set for value tho.

im Scott, lol and try zero? you can always change it back.

Lmao, sorry haven't had my coffee yet. Ill try that.

In my defense I got it right yesterday.

seems you did. congrats on still having hair. this kinda bs will make you crazy.

lol. Already going bald so no big deal... No luck changing the value to 0 any more ideas?

i hate to even say it, but maybe you need yet a older version of htp?

It works with 2.24, but i cant open and compare my old tune with it so i would have to start over and when I go from my truck to my car I have to uninstall then reinstall but I guess ill just have to deal.
