can't be tuned and written?
Correct. If you have an XDF or what you need is in universal patcher you can tune the file, but there is no free write tool. Pcmhammer does not support the P04 pcm, you are playing with a development version that is not finished. It currently supports P01/P59/P10/P12. P04 is a work in progress, and there is no ETA.
Have you read the FAQ? For lots of information and links to significant threads see here: http://pcmhacking.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1396

My bin file looks great it's just the validation part that didn't work. I can try to write the vin in there if I knew how. I do have a tech2win with this vcx nano and can get a acdelco subscription to might be able to change the vin? Idk...some of these vins are locked in and only way to change is to remove them and reprogram. Take a look at that bin file...I don't see anything wrong with it...and I suppose I'm willing to brick a PCM.
You can tune it within universal patcher. The OS is fully supported from tinytuner database, and have over 600 table ready for tuning.
However you need to find a way how to write back the file in pcm.

LS Droid is free and has p04 write, but it only supports the OBDXPro VT

To have artificial intelligence write the software needed for pcmhammer. Its worth a shot if someone on this board knows the route that needs to be taken. I just suggested a virtual car that our pcms hook up to so that we can test tunes without hurting the actual vehicle.

Also...is there a risk of bricking my gt pcm by changing the vin? has there been any known issues and do you think it would finally solve my bcm issue swap?

From the Tools menu, Select: Change VIN
Enter your new VIN, Select: Ok
If it accepts the new VIN, turn off the ignition leaving the battery hooked up for ~1 minute.
Turn ignition on, open PcmHammer and verify it changed by selecting the Read Properties button.

TIP: You are not making friends by cross posting!

Well the vin change was successful but the car wont crank and the security light is on...im thinking one last thing and to put that resistor inline with the bcm...its not even trying ...im gonna read the codes if there is any first.
