Re: WARNING HP Tuners MPV1 DEAD
Little bit of a thread dig from a long time lurker.
Late last year I bought a used MVPI 1 pro setup. Original tuning school laptop, firmware/driver/HP tuners suite USB dongle, a few GM credits and the handset.
I'm trying to get some kind of confirmation on being able to purchase credits- without having to update the firmware on the cable itself.
Will throwing the latest version of HP tuners onto that laptop, and then disconnecting from the net PRIOR to hooking up the cable- still result in a firmware update?
I dont want to get stuck with a bricked unit like others have.

Re: WARNING HP Tuners MPV1 DEAD
Find a version of the software prior to 4.2. Any version newer than that will force a firmware upgrade first time you sync the box to the software. Buying credits does not require a newer software version, you get an app key to enter into the software.
