Solved miss synchronization data file when AKL Programming

 One customer gave the feedback that he failed to use Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus to generate a key for VW Polo 2016 MQB all key lost after online calculation and successful immo data saving.

Solved miss synchronization data file when AKL Programming

 

Possible reasons:

Miss synchronization data file.

Actually, the prompts before generating the dealer key have answered why.

Solved miss synchronization data file when AKL Programming

 

For MQB instrument immo system, it needs token cost and:

1)Add Key needs a working key

2)All Key Lost needs the synchronization data

Although he’d done online calculation (cost 1 token each time) to get immo data, he still lacked synchronization data.

 

Solutions:

Go contact a third party like your vehicle’s dealer or specific online servers etc. Pay them extra to get synchronization data but part of vehicles not supported.

Load synchronization data to generate a dealer key.

Then press “Decode key” to finish following procedures as prompts and it should work.

 

Tips:

One can get the synchronization data only from a working key or a third party.

So always save the synchronization file when adding a spare key against unexpected needs.

How to solve Xentry EWA not working and unable to connect to Wifi?

Problem:

I purchased MB SD C4 Plus and the latest software V2021.03, I was sent a replacement HDD due to Windows forced update. I installed the new HDD on the original laptop and 2 of my own personal laptops. It isn't working properly.

 

I asked for Windows 10 Pro to be loaded, so I can change updates behavior in group policy to stop forced updates. None of the programs (Xentry, EWA) are working and I am unable to connect to WiFi. The system does not recognize ANY networks I know are available. The Windows software isn't activated either and I don't know if that is causing problems. And if I try to enter group policies on the machine I am told I don't have authorization.

MB SD C4 Plus Xentry EWA not working

 

 

obdexpress.co.uk Solution:

  1. The software needs to be activated, there is a pdf description on the desktop after your computer is started, you can send me the id according to the description to activate
  2. If your computer can't connect to the wifi network, means the wlan network card driver is not installed, please install Wlan Network card driver (I used the driver genius to repair the computer driver)

http://www.drivergenius.com/ ), you can download this to try, or you can find a computer driver repair tool commonly used in your country.

Question:

The HDD is in my HP G60 currently, as Spencer recommended, not the ThinkPad that was sent with the multiplexer and cables. Does it need to go back into the ThinkPad?

 

Answer:

If there is no problem with the Thinkpad computer, you can go it back. If you want to use it on your own computer, you need to reactivate the software.

 

Question:

Ok. I'd like to use mine if it doesn't matter. I don't understand what you meant about the network driver. I apologize I'm literate but not proficient with computers.

 

Answer:

You just said that your computer cannot connect to a wifi network, so I think your computer should not have the wlan network card driver installed, you need to repair the network card driver.

Hope it helps!
