Hi guys. Today I started to mess around with the ms43 for the first time. I couldn't get the galletto to work with it and don't kniw what I'm doing wrong as I never really used it and decided to use kess v2. To my surprise it has read a full 512kb file without opening the ecu. I also managed to flash it multiple times with full 512kb file from different sources and it worked fine. I still can't do the partial dump as kess does not support it but it is interesting that you can do a full flash without having to open the ecu and boot it.

Thats not truth! Its only partial read with fullfill rest with FFs.
Open in hex editor and you will see.
There are other tools that really can read full FLASH without opening ecu for bootpin or soldering job.
If you flash a really full flash read with kess ecu will be bricked. Maybe recovering with bootpin.

Like Lambda1 said. The information I posted is incorrect. It's a shame though.

For launch control you can use the improved one from 430069 Community Patchlist. Less bouncy and features a real limiter depending on vehicle speed.

I should make full read of my ecu load it on tuner pro and add 430069 XDF file I am right. Cause I tried it with partial read but nothing.....
