Best way to compare two .bins side by side?

I don't have to try it to know it won't work, the only tools that LS Droid supports are the ones from OBDX Pro.

A few comments up I linked to the official list of supported hardware from Pete S (the creator of LS Droid and one of the co-creators of OBDX Pro)

What kind of vehicle that youre running a p04 on? you caatch some gains?

putting a 3400 from a 2005 Monte Carlo into a 1982 Chevette. I haven't started the engine yet, among other things I still need to weld my oil pan back together - I cut a big section out so it would clear the crossmember & steering rack. So far PCM-wise, I've just read mine, disabled VATS and the auto trans DTCs and wrote it back, then re-read it to verify that the write was successful.

Hypothetically speaking, could his PCM be bench flashed with the old offline TIS2000?

Good idea, currently watching this https://youtu.be/gHPszi66Cuk flahed as in new write file with vats off etc?

TIS2000/SPS would just flash the latest stock software onto the module.

I need it to match the se bcm which isnt possible unless vats is removed. I do want tis2000 cause i read they have wiring diagrams. Trying to setup virtual machine on windows 11 and then windows 2000 pro to run tis2000
I think i'm going to have to wait until pcmhammer can write p04's or get that mx deal.

the tool antus mentioned is the OBDX Pro GT, and is is just newer and supports more protocols over the VT, but it's not needed for the p04. I've read and wrote back to my p04 with my VT and LS Droid after making changes to the BIN, so I know the combination works.

I thought it was this https://www.vxdas.com/products/xprog-m-programmer , You feel like trying that for me? I'll pay for shipping

No, its the obdxpro.com one zack4200 linked. They also have the VT which is cheaper, and only does VPW protocol. This is the protocol you need, and it'll work too. https://obdxpro.com/product/obdx-pro-vt/

The developer is around this site also. Then you can use lsdroid for windows or android to write.

Whats this little green bluetooth obd2 i've been seeing? I suppose there's no usb one that'll work?

From the front page of the obdxpro links we sent:

Key Features
USB and Bluetooth (Android) support
Support Diagnostics and Tuning
Fastest (And cheapest) tool that supports 4x VPW for Tuning
Read & clear ‘Check Engine’ light using tonnes of free applications
Supports ELM327 OBD2 Applications for smartphone and windows PC
Free firmware updates for life

The green one is obdlink mx. Its a very slow interface and people have a lot of problems with them. Not recommended.
