Unfortunately, no and it is starting to get frustrating because I have several European ROMs over there and I'm am starting to get annoyed by the Honda project taking time away from us.
I'll call over there again today.

For everyone having problems with the "gray-out", send a submission with your 11 questions, and just state the problem.
You don't need attachments - I've already alerted Hund about the influx of seemingly "incorrect" submissions.
Be patient - Hund has had some serious computer problems the past week (crashed drive, blown router, etc.), so I might not get to you until this afternoon.

I spoke too soon. The download was AOK, but I too have the greyed out custom file when trying to flash the ECU.

Will send the file via email as instructed.

Everyone with this issue:

Completely uninstall your AP Manager and AP Updater software.
Delete the folders they were in and, if you are so inclined, delete any registry keys that relate to the software.
Then, download the newest versions (1.2.2.1 for the Manager and 1.2.2.2-11434 for the Updater) and reinstall.
Then, verify the problem.
I don't believe this is going to fix it, but Christian at Cobb is insisting that we verify the complaint.

Thanks!

I installed the newest versions of the AP software on my work PC which never had them installed before.
I was able to install the map onto my AP (which I couldn't before) but the latest map was grayed-out while trying to install it onto the car.

OK. Thanks for the feedback. I figured that wasn't gonna fix it.

I am going to send you a file directly to test. Look for it in your e-mail - it will be a calibration in a ZIP. Try it and report back as soon as it is convenient for you.

Thanks!

No problem. I should be available as long as I don't get called away at work

Nothing in my inbox and nothing in the spam folder
Strange that I got your email for the direct download link but not this.

BTW.. My work has your site blocked (don't know why) so I can't check for it there.
Sorry for being a pain

If you want Jeff, send it to my "direct download link" page and I'll access it with a laptop (I see access points outside of my work )

I think I got it figured out.

The newest version of the software broke the serial number locking feature. The new calibrations aren't getting the serial number info from the AccessPORT correctly, so it doesn't identify your AccessPORT as yours.
I tried it on my car and had the same problem - I took a known-good calibration, re-saved it with the new software and absolutely NO changes and the AccessPORT showed it as grayed-out. When I deleted the serial number info, it showed up in white again.

Hopefully, I'll see a new build of the software tomorrow.

Dude, what is up with your freaking e-mail?
I have a few users that occasionally get my stuff blocked, but seem to receive nothing - even stuff Hund sends directly.

Your e-mail is listed in my database (by your submission via the 11 questions and your return address on your submissions) as your user name here at gmail.
It couldn't be any easier and plenty of people get my stuff through Gmail.

The e-mail was sent at 3:31 pm. It was 12k with the attachment. Three other users got the exact same e-mail at the exact same time (one of them on Gmail as well) and all received it.

It doesn't matter - it won't fix the problem (now that we understand it). Its just baffling.

Wish I knew bud... I think its strange too.
Especially since I've received 5 other maps from you with no issues.
AND I received the email notice from you detailing the direct download link.
I haven't messed with my filtering or anything.

Yup... that's the correct and my only email address (besides work)

Baffling indeed.
Oh well, at least you came up with a better idea to distribute the maps to everyone.
I'm sure others in the future would come across this same confusing issue too if you continued using email.
The direct download link should be one less hassle on your end.
Sorry I couldn't have been any help earlier.

Do we just need to delete the serial number information off our AP and that will fix it, or are there new files that need to be sent for us to correctly install it on our cars?
