TokenMaster's Launcher PRO V2.9.0 is now available.

Change log

Launcher PRO V2.9.0 Build 173
====================

- Increased allowed memory allocation for 64-bit JRE up to 8GB.

- Added another way of using 64-bit JRE by using "jre_x64" for folder name. This way, 32-bit JRE can remain untouched.

- Main window will become 65% transparent if a child window is open. This enhances the contrast and visibility of child windows. (See image below)

- Minor UI tweaks

- Minor security changes

- Removed support for 3.24 and 3.26. Minimum supported version is 3.27

Figure 1: Semi-Transparent main window

Majority of the work done on this version is not visible. Initial support (not available yet) for online activation has been laid out and will be enhanced further in future releases. These changes will trickle down to Premium as well.

I encourage anyone who's using PRO to upgrade to this version. This version is a little bit more stable and secure.

UPDATE: Launcher PRO V2.6.2

TokenMaster's Launcher 2.6.2 PRO is now Out.

Launcher PRO 2.6.2 Build 135

- Added ability to load Developer-signed CAFD files. Signature must be properly calculated for this to work. Tampered files are still blocked.

Launcher was designed with security in mind, not an after-thought. That being the case, we do have some brilliant minds out there, and allowing a modified, properly vetted, CAFD file can be beneficial. Starting with version 2.6.2, CAFD files properly signed with developer certificate and correct digital hash will be allowed, but ONLY IF the user chooses to do so. So, how does this work? Let's start with the following image:

Default is Not Allowed. This setting is not saved, so every time the Launcher starts, this is the default. You get the PSdZ error above, whenever a modified, or in this case -developer-signed, CAFD is requested.

Now, when you click on it, you'll get the following message:

You need to acknowledge the message, and understand that from that point forward, everything you do can have a catastrophic result. The button will turn Red while this setting is active. You can turn this on or off at will, and you will get the same message every time it is turned on.

Be careful when loading developer-signed CAFD and do not share it if you encounter one. And I hope nobody abuses this feature.

Launcher V2.6.1 PRO and Premium, NCD / CAFD Tool V0.4.0 Update - Updated 11/08/2016

TokenMaster's Launcher 2.6.0 Premium and PRO are now Out.

[Updated: 11/08/2016]
Launcher V2.6.1 Pro and Premium Builds 130 and 122, respectively, are now out. These updates addresses the initial issues found with the previous releases.

Launcher PRO 2.6.0 Build 128
- Added support for E-Sys 3.28.x
- PsdZdata mapping compatibility upgraded to V3.59.4
- Added color indicator to FDL Cheat Codes (Blue = OK, Orange = partially applied, Red = failure)
- Added FDL Cheat Codes online update
- CAF Viewer is forced to use \Data\psdzdata\swe\cafd folder instead of \Data\CAF
- Changed .NET Framework requirement to V4.5.2
- Launcher is now completely hands-off in coding/flashing modules

- Updated Cheat codes

Launcher Premium 2.6.0 Build 119
- Added support for E-Sys 3.28.x
- Added CAFD Transalation for the following G-Series: G001, G002, G011, G012, G013, G030, G031, G032
- Fixed High DPI/Screen Resolution support for JRE7, JRE8 (E-Sys 3.26, 3.27, 3.28) - Enjoy crisp resolution without down scaling your display
- Fixed issue with HKFM_LS. Older PSdZ library and other ECUs do not need to expand CAF, but HKFM_LS does, and is sensitive to delay. Launcher is now modified to only perform translation when requested from the GUI
- Added color indicator to FDL Cheat Codes (Blue = OK, Orange = partially applied, Red = failure)
- CAF Viewer is forced to use \Data\psdzdata\swe\cafd folder instead of \Data\CAF
- Changed .NET Framework requirement to V4.5.2
- Launcher is now completely hands-off in coding/flashing modules

- Updated Cheat codes

A few notes on these features:

.NET Framework 4.5.2 is now required due to new features added. It can be downladed from this link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42642

For Premium only. You will be asked to generate a token. I have changed the way token is generated for V2.6.

- CAF Viewer is forced to use \Data\psdzdata\swe\cafd folder instead of \Data\CAF - I find it annoying that the CAF Viewer defaults to \data\CAF. This is one of the more frequently asked questions I get. CAF viewer opens CAF files, FDL-Editor opens NCD files. They don't mix. CAF Viewer now defaults to \Data\psdzdata\swe\cafd, when Launchers are used.

- Added color indicator to FDL Cheat Codes (Blue = OK, Orange = partially applied, Red = failure) - The following picture is self-explanatory.

When previewing or applying changes, the selected item(s) will change color as a visual aide and indicates the status of the code. Blue means accepted, Orange means partially (for multiple code location), and Red means the value is outside the acceptable range.

- Added FDL Cheat Codes online update - FDL Cheat Codes can be updated if it's updated by the author and uploaded to Github repository.

NCD / CAFD Tool V0.4.0 is also now available. PsdZdata mapping compatibility upgraded to V3.59.4

Update: Work-in-Progress - Launcher PRO and Premium 2.6

My first blog post after I came back was rather nasty, so I thought I'd post something more like the usual stuff.

I just finished setting up my coding PC after it crashed. I guess it didn't like being idle for so long. Anyway, here's what I'm working at:

Launcher PRO and Premium V2.6.0
- Supports E-Sys 3.28.x
- PSdZData Mapping compatibility: V3.59.4

Premium necessitates generating new token. You'll be asked to provide a PIN and old tokens will no longer work.

Also working on NCD/CAFD Tool with mapping compatibility updated to PSdZData V3.59.4

I hope to get it done in the next 7 days or so. Stay tuned.

E-Sys Launcher PRO 2.5.5

E-Sys Launcher PRO 2.5.5 Build 120


E-Sys Launcher PRO 2.5.5 is now out.

- Added CAFD Translation for the following G-Series: G001, G002, G011, G012, G013, G030, G031, G032
- Fixed High DPI/Screen Resolution support for JRE7 (E-Sys 3.26, 3.27) - Enjoy crisp resolution without down scaling your Ultra HD display
- Fixed issue with HKFM_LS. Older PSdZ library and other ECUs do not need to expand CAF, but HKFM_LS does, and is sensitive to delay. Launcher is now modified to only perform translation when requested from the GUI


Due to the last item, I had to release PRO first. Premium will follow soon with the same features and fixes.

E-Sys 3.27.1 Notes

I've been using E-Sys 3.27.1 a lot recently and I noticed that it crashes a lot due to a myriad of issues. Something as simple as having the MSM Updated turned on could crash E-Sys. The good news is that MSM update is the last process in coding, so the crash does not pose big problem when coding. It's just so annoying.

Memory, or the lack thereof, could also crash E-Sys. So, when running on default memory settings and trying to code complex ECUs, like NBT, could crash it.

I've never seen this happen to previous versions of E-Sys. It was pretty good at handling exceptions, but 3.27.1 seems different.

Bonus Tip
If you are forced to run E-Sys using default memory settings (512MB), you can help it by moving some PSdZData folders you never use. Some folders you can safely move, so long as you don't own a series which uses them are the series folders inside kiswb. I have F30 so I moved the following folder:
   C:\Data\psdzdata\kiswb\S15A (used by G-Series)
   C:\Data\psdzdata\kiswb\K001 and C:\Data\psdzdata\kiswb\KE01 (used by BMW motorcycle?)
   C:\Data\psdzdata\kiswb\RR01 (used by Rolls Royce)
   C:\Data\psdzdata\kiswb\I001 (used by i-3, i-8)
   C:\Data\psdzdata\kiswb\F056 (used by Mini)

Moving the above folders prevent E-Sys from reading database associated with these series. These databases are read on startup and kept in memory while E-Sys is running, using precious memory.

If you have plenty of RAM and can run at least using the medium settings, then moving the above folders are not required. Again, only do this if you are forced to run using default memory settings.  

E-Sys Launcher V2.2.2 PRO and Premium are out

E-Sys Launcher V2.2.2 PRO and Premium are out.

Change Log:

E-Sys Launcher Premium 2.2.2 Build 72
- Added support for E-Sys 3.27.1





E-Sys Launcher PRO 2.2.2 Build 80
- Added support for E-Sys 3.27.1
- Added 2 missing functions in FEM found by valley_nomad

Tested on Windows 7, 8.1, and 10, both 32 and 64 bit versions


If you are interested in E-Sys Launcher PRO 2.x, email me at fxxtokenmaster_at_GMail

NOTE: Please do not request download link by commenting. I will not reply to anyone asking me to send the software to them. Thanks for understanding.

E-Sys Launcher Premium V2.2.0 Build 68

E-Sys Launcher Premium V2.2.0 Build 68 is out.

Chaange log:
- Added support for E-Sys 3.27
- Added support for FLE in PSdZData
- Added 2 missing functions in FEM found by valley_nomad

Last item is what I envisioned mapping is going to be, when I created CAFD Remapping. A community effort. Because let's face it, if we don't get untrimmed CAFD/FAFP, any new or moved functions, like the case of ASP_AUSKLAPPEN_NACH_KOMFORTSCHLIESSEN, will go unnoticed. But, if the community starts testing these new functions and determine what they do, then we'll have a fighting chance. I named these new/moved functions (PfExternalMirrorMaster_1_1_1, PfExternalMirrorMaster_8_8_1, ...etc.) as I know they mean something, I just don't know what they are. So, thank you, valley_nomad, for testing these (previously) unknown functions.

You can find the new build in the usual place. And lastly, please do not request for download link here. Enjoy!

E-Sys Launcher: C157, F999...etc.

This post will also serve as Frequently Asked Questions regarding different error being encountered while using Launcher.

Suspect File(s)

As of Version 2.0, both Launchers will not load patched/modified files. Some token solution used insecure patch files. Launcher is designed to prevent loading such files.

Resolution: It's advisable to abort launching, then reinstall E-Sys from a trusted source.


Java Virtual Machine Launcher

Your PC does not have enough contiguous free memory.

Resolution: Either restart your PC, or choose a lower memory settings.

Can't change car series, defaults to F999 (Premium Only)
Someone wrote a tool to reset the Launcher, so I had to enforce a default value. Instead of being able to select a series upon installation, a default value is now used.



[C157]  Condition Not Correct. General error.
If you are getting code 157 when trying to open FDL editor, and the description is "Condition Not Correct. General error.", stop playing with the computer's date. Launchers will detect this and will consider it tampering and will refuse to authenticate with E-Sys.

Resolution: Fix date and reinstall E-Sys. 

E-Sys Launcher PRO

E-Sys Launcher Pro


E-Sys Launcher PRO (V1.0.4 as of this writing) is a Next-Generation Universal Token Solution for E-Sys Version 3.22.x and up (except 3.25.x due to bugs with E-Sys). The PRO version is for those who are already using my patchless token solution.

User Interface

 
E-Sys Launcher Pro FEATURES
1) Increased Default Memory Allocation. E-Sys needs memory and lots of it. Default setting is barely enough for simple cars like the F20/F30s but is hardly sufficient for cars with complex ECUs (F15, F56...etc.). Most coders do well by changing this settings but some aren't aware of this. While it can be easily changed, E-Sys doesn't check the value and if you set it too high, will prevent E-Sys from launching again. The PRO version offers two additional settings over the Premium. Max and Custom.

2) Enhanced Overall System Stability. By ensuring E-Sys gracefully shutdown and JVM properly recycled at the end of each coding session, your system is kept optimized for the next session. Stock E-Sys, more often than not, does not fully terminate when you exit the application. JVM lingers in the background, hogging and leaking memory. The issue becomes more apparent when you start/shutdown E-Sys numerous times, to a point where system restart is required. The PRO version also adds additional setting that boost stability of background tasks spawned by E-Sys

3) Zero E-Sys Configuration. With the launcher, there's no need to reconfigure E-Sys to use different Soft tokens. Those with OEM or my patchless token solutions can keep using it by clicking the Blue E-Sys icon, while using the launcher will use the assigned token, all without having to fiddle with the settings. The order in which you install E-Sys and the Launcher does not matter, as nothing gets modified.

4) Personalized and Individualized Token. The soft token you create from existing patchless tokens will only be usable on your own machine. It cannot be shared and reused on another machine. This also means that someone can't sell you a token and expect it to work. With the built-in Token Generator, creating soft token is as easy as pressing a button. No fiddling around with some command line tool and creating XML data by hand. The PRO version adds the ability to use patchless tokens without having to extend/regenerate it.

5) Absolute Security. It became pretty easy to hack CAFD recently. With the launcher, the risk of using hacked CAFD is reduced to 0. Hacked CAFDs are prevented from loading, exactly the way stock E-Sys does, stopping it dead from its track. Coupled with individualized token, there's no need to worry about hacked CAFD, even the ones that are re-signed and encrypted. BUT, you have to have an unpatched E-Sys. Patched file works by ignoring digital certificates.

6) No-Touch Post Deployment. With the launcher, all you need is to install E-Sys. Already installed E-Sys? No problem, just use the launcher and it just works without adding, modifying, or editing anything. Upgrading E-Sys? Go ahead, launch it and see it work.

7) Supports Multiple Versions/Side-by-Side Setup. If you have multiple versions of E-Sys installed on your machine (like I do), the Launcher PRO can be configured to launch each one with different launch mode. Even if you only have a single instance of E-Sys, it can be launched 4 different ways. 

8) Supports 4 Different Launch Mode. The launcher PRO supports different launch types. This means that you can use the launcher with an OEM Soft Token and just take advantage of the higher memory settings or enhanced stability, or both.

Note: Do not mix and match different solutions, it's not generally recommended and could elevate the security risks the launcher is trying to minimize. 

Feature Comparison

 

Warning about E-Sys 3.26.x: Be warned that 3.26.x is not as stable as 3.24.3 and you may experience error especially when flashing, with or without the launcher. 3.25.x is worse. I am still using 3.24.3 for this reason.

Why Hacking XMLCrypto is Bad, Really Bad!!!

From the get-go, I've always avoided cracking XMLCrypto. Every time I see a discussion about hacking it, I always say leave it alone. To some people, that came across as protecting my vested interest. That can never be farther from the truth.

I've also been in discussion with a few people wanting to do their own solution, and they always focus on this one class: The XMLCrypto class. I don't blame them. I mean, this is the shortest way to their goal. I mentioned in one of my previous blogs that I looked at this and have almost considered doing exactly just that. But...my training and experience pushed me to find another way. And there's always another way. Working for a top tier security company, I've seen all this happen too often. Bad guys are always trying different things to spread harm. And I love my car too much to have to worry about this problem.

More and more solution are coming out and they're all centered on cracking XMLCrypto. There's one solution that is particularly bad. For one, this was based off of somebody else's work. For another, it entailed patching 3 class files. 3 Class Files!!! Seriously?!? If he knew what he was doing, he wouldn't be patching 3 files. If everyone had at least some sort of basic security training, they'd leave XMLCrypto alone. If everyone cares about their cars and their friend's cars as much as I do mine, they'd leave XMLCrypto alone.

So, why is it bad? For those who know E-Sys, you know that it is only part of a bigger solution. PSdZ (PSdZData) is what makes it work. All files in PSdZ are digitally signed, encrypted and some are even compressed. There's a reason for that. The very reason we digitally sign a document is to preserve its integrity and verify it's authenticity.  When you patch XMLCrypto, you take all that away. You dump the digital signature and accept everything blindly.

XMLCrypto is our last defense in verifying FA, FP, CAFD and everything else. It is our protection from tampered files. Think of it as the firewall of PSdZ. It only allows trusted and verifiable files.

Figure 1: XMLCrypto doing its job

Like I said, patching it takes away all these feature and benefits. It's akin to creating a wide hole in the firewall. Wait, not just a hole, but you're actually breaking down the entire defense wall. Why anyone would do it is well beyond me. It such a shame they don't understand this concept and the danger of doing such a thing.

Figure 2: Patched XMLCrypto Class

Proof of Concept: Download this file: Modified CAFD This is an CAFD, altered and repackaged. Unpatched E-Sys will never accept this CAFD file as it knows it's tampered and will never pass verification. But those with patched XMLCrypto will have no trouble using this file. In fact, the app will gladly accept anything you throw at it.

But what can a tampered CAFD do, you ask? CAFD is a file template which contains things like default values base on your Vehicle Order. Unfortunately, it also contains values for transport mode. What is "Transport Mode"? It's when your car needs a ride to the dealership because it wouldn't start on its own :).

Kidding aside, it is very easy to get these values and replace the ones used as default values, package and distribute it as "New" version of PSdZ. None would be the wiser, certainly, not your patched E-Sys.
 
This is why I didn't patch XMLCrypto. I hope everybody realizes this.

Random Musing #1

#1: Dog eats Dog...

So, in one of my earlier blog, I pointed out a guy selling tokens. This guy generates his own token, BUT, uses patched files from the original developer. What this guy did is reversed-engineered the solution and started generating his own token, then sells them. Geez, what a rip off

And I didn't think it would get worse!!! So, another guy bought a token from then first developer. He then again reversed-engineered this, "created patches" and pass it on as his own. D'uh. And this is actually worse. The first developer, uses 2 patched files, the new guy patches 3. This tells me he didn't really know what he's doing and just patches things left and right. VERY dangerous

...And it gets worse still!!! I learned of a guy who got a token from me, and is now selling token too, derived from the third guy. Next thing you know, he'll mix and match solution, ending up with a FrankenToken lol.

See, these guys bit the hands that fed them. Keep doing that and the hands will eventually stop feeding. These guys chose to ripped people off. We're not exactly saints, but I spent a lot of time developing my original solution without looking at others work. I came up with a patchless solution because I not only studied the software, but the platform which it was built on. I was very careful in my method and made sure the app remained true for whatever it is designed to do.

Dog eats dog, pirates pirating the hackers. Back in the days, these never happened and we had code. We had respect for each others work. We collaborated when we needed something from each other and not rip each other.

#2: 3.22.x ~ 3.24.x is defeated

As most already know, I came up with the first ever patchless solution, but not only it is patchless, it's multi-version as well. The same 20kb file, the same token can be use from version 3.22.x up to and including 3.24.3, or whatever the latest version is on the 3.24 series.

So, this is no news anymore, time to move on

But then...came 3.25.x!!!

#3: 3.25

3.25 came out last year. It was almost redesigned, security-wise. I can almost say, the only change that was implemented was everything about the security. I can't say whether it was the programmer's decision or that of the Architect's, but if I was the PM, I'd be majorly pissed at the direction it went. It added no value, and only caused problem.

3.25.2 would not even FDL code!!! But guess what? I made it run and coded my car. 3.25.3 fixed the issue with FDL coding, but the UI bug remained. The software as a whole is solid, and I give props to the whole development team. It's just that 3.25 shouldn't have went where it did.

3.25 series was a pain. And let me tell you that I spent more time analyzing it than I did on the previous versions. And this is me armed with previous knowledge. It was hard and I almost doubted whether it can be done or not.

And that, folks, is why you don't trust pirates! These guys are selling it for cheap, and why not? They didn't have to do anything. But then, ask them if they can support you, or if you can get upgrade.

#4: Unbeatable?

With the amount of time and effort it took to beat 3.25.x, it's not too far off to think that eventually, we'll be faced with an unbeatable software. This is when the hand stops feeding, the hand will stop giving. Instead of a software that costs few pennies, we'll all end up with a software that is pretty much out of everyone's reach, including mine. And we'll all have the pirates to thank for.

Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)

Here are some of the most common questions I've been answering quite lately:

Q: The instructions I read in the PDF says I need to delete 2 files and then replace with the 2 files. Where are those files?
A: Those files are from another developer. My solution does not use patched files and no files should be removed or deleted. If you did, you need to restore those files or reinstall the application to restore them before you can use my token.

Q: I got a token for my 3.23.4 version. Now I got hold of 3.24.2, can I get an updated file?
A: You already have it. My solution works on versions 3.22.5 up to 3.24.3 and everything in between.

Q: If I get a token, will you provide the patch as well?
A: It depends on what patch you're talking about. If you meant the two patched files, then, No. I don't use patched files (see Q#1). I provide everything you need to use the token except the application itself. It comes with less than 20kb file, PDF instruction and the token. Just install the application, then proceed with my instructions.

Q: Will this token work with new version of the application?
A: It works up to 3.24.3. There's no way for me to tell if it works on unreleased version until I get hold of it.

Q: I sent you a PM a few days ago and have yet to receive a response. What gives?
A: Just complying with the forum rules. Most BMW forum prohibit the use of PM system for commercial use unless you're a sponsor of the site/forum. I am not a sponsor, so I'm prohibited to use the PM system. Contact me at fxxtokenmaster[at]Gmail_dot_com instead and I'm likely to respond within the hour, if I'm up and about.

Not a question but...

Q: I'd like to get 3 year...
A: 3-year token is the 2nd most popular request next to 1-year token. Before asking for 2 or 3 years token, understand that it's only guaranteed to work from versions 3.22.5 up to 3.24.3 and everything in between. It's always a possibility that the token will not work with newer versions.

The app requires PSdZ and this gets released all the time with new security feature so, it may require newer version. Most notably, PSdZ 49.x will not work with 3.18, thus, the release of 3.22.x. 3.22.5 won't work with PSdZ 51.0, hence, the release of 3.23.x.

If you get, say, 3-year token now, and your car gets updated that would necessitate using new PSdZ and new app and I can't come up with a solution, multi-year token would now be essentially "useless"

CodeMyBimmer on Azure

Update: Due to the work of some sick mind, Codemybimmer.NET was snatched right under my nose. I can't fathom what's going on in  his mind and why he'd do something like that. I highly suggest you stay away from codemybimmer domain.

CodeMyBimmer is only on Azure. Not anywhere else.

Just Launched: CodeMyBimmer.NET on Azure.

It's open, free and you can go offline as soon as you open the first page. You can filter by car series and searching/Filtering can be done offline.

Registration is required to vote, add and edit entries though. Email address is not needed, just username and password. You can use your Google and Windows Live account. Facebook and other SN sites that requires SSL is not yet supported.

To Add or Edit, just select the applicable car series, add Description, ECU, Daten, then add 1 or more functions.

 

 

 You can only vote once per item, you can switch between +1 or -1. This should help those new in coding to see which are the most popular code.

Link to Bimmerfest and a couple of other BMW forum are added.

For Developers who wants to tap into it, the site uses compressed JSON. No authentication required to pull the data.

There's only a few items to start with, so please feel free to add or edit. The ones already in there are tag to F30 only, so if you know that they're applicable to other series, please feel free to edit as you see fit. 

You can add Option (ex: KOMFORT_SCHLIESSEN), Werte value (ex: 0A), or both. If the Werte changes due to the option change, leave the Werte value empty. For example, if changing aktiv to nicht_aktiv changes Werte from 00 to 01, you can leave the Werte field empty. The idea is, to only change what is needed, thus keeping it simple and less confusing for those very new in coding.

If anyone is interested, I can make this open source, maybe post it in Github. I haven't use Git -if anyone is handy with Git, let me know.

NCD / CAFD Tool

As some of you may already know, I made a tool for NCD and CAFD files, named....wait for it...NcdCafdTool!!! Tada, yeah, can't think of a better name but what's in a name anyway?

Latest version has translation, so, if you want to know more what's in your NCD or CAFD, go grab the tool. It's in Bimmerfest.com, F30Post.com and BMWCoding.com

Yeah, I know. "Decryt" right?!?
