Technically it's a bug on the way they implemented it. The GUI is a front-end to the JB4. It only pushes settings when you hit save.. So if you never make changes to WMI, your passive-delete settings shouldn't change.
I have the latest A163/A164 which include Map Buttons instead of a Dropdown. Along with a country check button. So there is a new workaround that should work for any device. Download a VPN client, connect to a non-US country. Then open the JB4 Mobile app, click update country, and it should reflect the VPN's country. Now disconnect VPN Right now before this it only checked on first launch and saved/cached the user's country based on IP-address. With this new button in settings, you can use it to update it at will. |

Both methods do the same thing for now. But you need to be in the latest Beta to get the country check option. (or uninstall, connect vpn, install, and launch)
When they start implementing a country check more vigorously then this may all change. |

Is there a recommended hex editor?
I have older JB4 interface software that allows older firmware. I had to recently update since there was a bug in the FW I had. So far, as long as you successfully install the firmware with older interface the Android App doesn't seem to care. Look forward to trying this out.

So I can just change the country and the passive delete feature will work? (No need for VPN, etc??) Just want to make sure before I update my App and JB4 firmware. Thanks. EDIT: I misread I think. You still need to use the VPN to update the country setting.

I’m curious to know how the JB4 iOS app updated my settings by simply opening the app? The app seems to have been updated in July and I opened it last Thursday for the first time since the update to view settings. after a couple of miles of driving, check engine came on and I read cat related codes from both the JB4 app and a generic ODBII reader I have.

I ordered a stage 1 for my N20 earlier this year, i downloaded the old interface that i can somehow still access, but i dont see the option to select passive delete. Can i just plug in my new car F13 M6 to the old jb4 interface that i used for the N20?

I'll gladly send you a beer donation if you can help me get this working. When you mention replace the jb4.exe file. I'm unsure which one this is. Is under the Application folder? i've attached 2 screenshots. I'll be uninstalling the current interface and trying again after your guidance if you dont mind Thanks! |

1. try running a search on your pc for jb4.exe.
2. or run task manager, and right click on jb4.exe when open and click open file location. You will not find the file in your install files, those are just used for install. The installer puts it in your profile directory/AppData/Apps/2.0/ Then the directories are random, you need to use the taskmgr method to find the right folder Last edited by zipphreak; 10-15-2017 at 12:55 AM.. |

Hey Zipphreak,
I've tried changing States to Goates and it doesn't seem to be working for me. Some of the files I just got from BMS are dated from September so maybe this doesn't work on the newest files? I attached a pic of the newest .exe file I'm trying to modify which looks the same as your pics. Any ideas on how to get the passive delete back for this version? Thanks, Mike |

You are not following the taskmgr instructions.
Start / run . taskmgr. enter Run jb4. Find jb4.exe Right click , Open file location. This is where the actual jb4 exe is. My version is 6/1/2017.. Check yours. |
