Someone can tell me how I have to modify to get a good clone of carprog 8.21, it is a chinese clone and I want to rework her.
Hi,I am from India and we have a small family business of completely fixing totaled cars.
So recently I began my search to learn how to clear crash data from the modules. I have learned that there a number of tools that can be used like eeprom programmers(though it is very limited to a few cars.), ultraprog (I learned about ultraprog just in this forum)and Carprog(from AliExpress).
Though any car can come by our garage at any point of time to get fixed but the most frequent cars are:
HYUNDAI= I10 Grand, I20, Verna, Creta, Accent, Elantra
HONDA= City, WRV, Accord
MARUTI SUZUKI= Swift, Swift Dzire, Ertiga ,Vittara Brezza, S-Cross, Baleno
TOYOTA= Fortuner, Innova
RENAULT= Duster, Kwid
FORD= Eco Sport, Figo
MAHINDRA= Scorpio, SUV, TUV
Though these car are most frequent but any other car can come by any time.
So my questions are:
1. Can this cloned carprog works fine for clearing modules?
2. Is there any limitation of this device?
3. Where can I get the cleared data for different modules particularly for cars in India?
4. The carprog software(that comes in CD), does it already have module data for some cars or all cars?
5. What is the difference between carprog "8.21 online" and "V9.31/V10.05/V10.93 offline" ?
6. Since every module is different, how do I know how to connect that module to carprog? (Will these instructions be available in CD that comes with device?) (I have some soldering experience)
7. Since I have realised that there are bad clones on AliExpress too, therefor please guide me to best version of Carprog on Aliexpress.
8. Any other revelant information will be highly appreciated.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Regards

Hi Friends!
I have reworked Carprog clone.
What is the best software to use?
Original is 8.21/10.05. Is it true that I can use 10.93?
Thanks!

Hello everyone! Today I'm happy to be able to contribute with something that may be useful for many of you, after learning so much from all the magnificent knowledge that is on this site...
It's an observation I made when I went on the process of updating my CarProg firmware. I suppose not all boards will be the same as mine, and don't know if someone may have realized about this already, because honestly I haven't read the whole 47 pages on this topic haha, but here we go:
We all know that in order to update the firmware we need to lift processor's pin 55, and connect it to 3.3 V so that the chip gets erased, and therefore accepts new firmware. Well, what I found is that specifically in my board, pin 55 isn't connected to anything, but only to a test point that is the end of the circuit for that pin. This means that in this case there's no need to unsolder that tiny pin, with the risk involved in doing so. It's only needed to solder a wire to that test point, which is beside "C19" marking on the other side of the board, and just connect it to 3.3 V when needed. I ended up removing the whole processor just to confirm my thoughts, but it's the way it looked indeed. Here I attach some photos so that you can see it.
Mine is a chinese clone that was bought in November 2.018. I don't know if all current ones are manufactured the same way, but hope this helps.

Hi, i have downloaded the software rename te .lib file , carprog starts but many featurea are not active , many dash , the transpoder section , is that how it should be ? My carprog is a clone 8.21 sn 0223 . Thanks
Has someone rework for antenna, a1 and d1 adapters for new pcb ? the one from aliexpress, 8.21 version. Also I want to rework my chinese version, I searched on internet but I found so many variants and so many differences.
Hi, I have problem with mine v8.21 carprog.
It can't read dash in Octavia 2 2007, and NEC 2011 too. Octavia 2 2006 successfully readed.
Now counter appears and I don't have NEC clusters available.
How I can fix these problems?
Thanks for any help.

On A3 that dash go in boot mode when i try it with fvdi...
digi do that via obd and avdi genuine, smok...
Hi,
I have carprog v 10.05 clone. I buy new MCU on ebay, because on original CPU i broken pin 55.
When i connect JLink on carprog in "project settings" i detect ARM7TDMI Core 0X3F0F0F0F, after this when
i try to connect i received message "Unable to halt CPU core, failed to connect". What is problem? I skip erase current firmware,
because MCU is new, maybe this is problem?.
Can somebody sent me lib i firmware file for this version carprog.
Thanks.
Can anyone throw the current link '' Carprog Antenna Fix.zip ''
