Have you read your stock bin file from your pcm?
What do you need help with, how to dial it in, or how to make changes to your file?

Look up your OS first. You can also use PCM Hammer to read the pcm for the OS

[ralmo94]

if you have a bin file on your phone that you read from your pcm, you can move it to your pc, and open it with universal patcher, it will tell you OS also

How do I transfer it to my computer?

[ralmo94]

To move files to PC you can plug your phone code into the USB on your PC. Look for USB options on your phone and select use USB for file transfer. Then you can use file explorer on your PC. Once you find the file should be able to drag and drop or copy and paste.
If you have it on an sd card, you can put the SD card in a PC card reader.

You could also email it to your self and open email on the PC.

You could also upload it to this thread with your phone and download it with your PC.

ok i got it on my pc thanks for your patience what next

[ralmo94]

Do you have universal patcher downloaded?

[lawrence sr]

i will right now

[lawrence sr]

i thimk i have it

[ralmo94]

You need to click extract All of you haven't already to use universal patcher.

If you are using a spare pcm, you probably want to delete vats so it will start.

Before making any changes, I recommend you make a copy of your stock file. Make changes to the copy, and keep your stock file on a thumb drive, on your PC desktop, just somewhere you can keep it safe in case you need it in the future.

I made a short video of how to delete vats .

A lot of work has been done by the creators of universal patcher.
