Looks like Fortuna have pulled the update from their website until they get it sorted.

I have managed to flash my BT ClipOn, but it would not work through the ClipOnSyncBT application.

After mine failed through the ClipOnSyncBT application, I then edited the "RunExe.bat" file to remove the "-r" from the command line as this was making it fail (as you can see from the "ConsFile") and then re-set up the BT connection and ran the batch file and waited for a couple of minutes (watching the BT activity on the ClipOn) and in the file "RESCOMn" I got a PASS message and in the "ConsFile" had lots of messages about the reflashinging.

When I remove the "-r" from the batch file runexe.bat (which seems to be dynamically created each time you run the bt flash app) I get the following error:

"When programming requested -f and -t should not be specified" so I take these command line parameters out and it executes ok with "target not responding" again. So for me, I am back to square one.

Ok, I removed the "-sr" from the command line thinking that maybe mpattman mistakenly miswrote the "-r". But I get "target not responding".

mpatman - please post your SiRFflashc1 command line that worked for you in your runexe.bat. Thanks.

I have just re flashed my device and this is what I did:

1) Extracted the zip file.
2) Copied the file "FortunaXTracV202.s" to the A: drive.
3) Go to the support directory where you unzipped the zip file.
4) Run "ClipOnSyncBT.exe", configure com port and point the application to the flash file on the A drive.
5) Click on the "Com Port Off -> On" button, then the "Link To Fortuna GPS" and then finally the Execute button.
6) This looks like it prepares the device you will notice no activity on the Bluetooth, close the "ClipOnSyncBT.exe" application.

7) Edit the batch file "RunExe.bat" to remove the "-r", mine looks like this:

I've followed the steps as described above without any problems! Same logging as above. Should work for everybody.

I have tried the above instructions to the letter, but I still get the same FAIL and Target not responding errors in the logfiles.

In step 6:
6) This looks like it prepares the device you will notice no activity on the Bluetooth, close the "ClipOnSyncBT.exe" application.
Whe you pressed 'execute' you can see two windows of the cliponsyncbt application will open: the main window and the window that says it's flashing the unit. I've only closed the main window (so not the 'flashing' window). After that, I executed the command SirFFlashcl A:\FortunaXTracV202.s -l 4 -b 38400 -c 0 -sr > ConsFile from the command prompt.
Good luck!!
