OK, first off I have a USB Pro V2. I just picked up a Trinity Slim I am hoping to flash LT+ 3 to. Unfortunately I opened it up and it has a Winbond 9504 (which is now a 2702 since it has been updated to 13599 or later dash). I am not comfortable drilling into the PCB, but fortunately I have a spare MXIC board from a 0225 laying around.

I have already slim key'd and grabbed the dummy.bin from the Winbond board. I have the sputnik probe, so I was assuming I could just unlock the MXIC board with the probe and manually enter in the DVD key from the winbond board and flash it with LT+ 3. Is that accurate? If so, do i just copy and paste in the DVD key from the winbond board in the firmware tab?

Thanks for the help.

You have to flash it with the full firmware not just the key, have you put a sputnik switch on the mxic board
How am I supposed to get the full firmware from the Winbond if it's not unlocked? Wouldn't I just need to load the dummy.bin from the Winbond in the firmware tab and let it load LT+3? No, dont have the switch, just the probe.


Let jf auto load fw, press write. Done

In the case of a spelling error, I blame Tapatalk.
Just to clarify, you're saying go through the unlock steps for the MXIC, then go to the firmware tab and load the Winbond dummy as source and let it auto-load the LT+3 firmware right?

Thanks for the help fellas. Is there much a of market for spare PCB's? I'll have the Winbond just sitting around gathering dust.
