How to unmarry an OFT??
sold my OFT, I uninstalled everything and thought that was pretty much it.
Then the buyer says the OFT cannot read his DME? So i got it back, plugged it into the car and nothing specific happens, i cannot find any kind of clear or uninstall like the Cobb unit has. I connected the OFT to my computer, opened up the OpenFlash Manager and when i hit the download tab there are NO roms present, not an original nor any modified roms. So now I'm confused because it would seem as if the OFT is uninstalled since nothing comes up?? There is a tab that says Erase data, but i don't want to hit that in case it messes anything up, anyone have any ideas for me or a step by step guide?

To uninstall/in marry the OFT, all you need to do is flash back your original al rom and then go to "erase data". You will need to be connected to wifi for this step. Once erased, it can be installed in another car. If the erase data menu isn't selectable after flashing your stock rom back in, let us know (sales@vishnutuning.com) and we can sort it out remotely.

It was always my understanding that the erase data function could be done on any computer regardless of who flashed their car last with it or not. Did you perform this erase data function before sending the unit to the buyer in the first place?

I did not as i did not know you had to do it, my Cobb unit was not like that. i just feel like there was a lot of headache and money flushed away.

Just flash your stock rom and erase data then plug into car and make sure it takes you through the prompts it did when you first bought it and plugged it in for the first time.. Thats what i did when i sold my tablet and the buyer had no issues
