Default FlashPro 'out of date' can't tune!

After reviewing datalogs tonight, I tried to edit the map. FlashPro v2.3.5 says 'out of date' and will not give me the option to open my calibration. Hondata servers/website appear to be down. But why should this prevent me from editing something that already exists on my laptop and in my car?

Is anyone else experiencing this issue as well? Hondata website/forums are down, lol.

You didn't plug your FlashPro into another computer running 2.3.6 did you?

Hondata website and forums are working fine for me.

I had an old version of flashpro and could not open calibration. I suggest you delete flashpro on computer and then reload flashpro on computer. Worked for me

I had the same issue this morning running 2.3.5.0, but after opening it again a few minutes ago, the "Out of Date" message went away. I think Hondata accidentally flipped some "switch" by mistake, then fixed it.

Personally, I think Hondata needs to disable that "feature", since it could leave people stranded during an eTune...

So it looks like the current version of FP Manager basically makes a check w/ hondata on startup (query's their server or something), and if you don't have an internet connection you're stuck with the "Out of date" message. Very irritating if you aren't someplace with wifi for your laptop. I'll have to notify them to fix this sooner than later.

It does seem that way, which is VERY VERY irritating. Almost all of the time I spend using FlashPro Manager is spent in a parking lot somewhere. What's even worse is that it won't let me view Datalogs even after the "Out of Date" status clears. It will allow me to open a calibration, but not a datalog...

Yeah, they seem to have a kill switch programmed into their software that operates on a time delay. v2.3.5 was released back in November and v2.3.6 was released on April 1st of this year. So, they basically left people with 19 days to upgrade before losing ability to tune if out of internet service like during street tuning...

I think it is outrageous they have this programmed in. But yeah, their severs came back online later and I was able to download v2.3.6 and get going again.

I've not seen anything new in FlashPro software applicable to the S2000 for several "updates."

This bit me this weekend. I spent an hour or so going over my four datalogs from the racetrack on Saturday and modified my tune while connected to Wifi at the hotel. I go to upload the new tune to the car on Sunday morning with no Internet and f@#king Hondata won't let me do anything. I was not pleased.
