    Brickable TCM if you choose not to write calibration?

    Is it really possible to brick the TCM if you choose the "Do not write" option in VCM Suite 3.2? I do not see myself needing to make regular changes to the TCM as most of what I plan to do is PCM related. Just seems a waste of time to write "no changes" to the TCM, but if it has the potential to brick it by not writing to it I guess I have no choice?

    Thanks

    No, it is not. I believe that note was fixed in later 3.2 versions.

    I still get the brickable warning when selecting "Do Not Write" option for the TCM in 3.2.129.

    good to hear. I have also been writing to the TCM in fear of bricking. this should save a little time.
