Korhex Boot Glitch and MCU Access Tool Need Work With Magic Motorsport FLEX 

Korhex is a hardware add-on for Flex, designed for direct MCU access during supported ECU unlocking procedures. It works with Flex's Boot Glitch workflow to simplify access to protected ECUs, reducing the need for board flipping, resistor desoldering and manual Boot pin wiring. Unlocking a protected ECU usually means physical work before any software step: flipping the PCB, desoldering resistors, wiring Boot pins by hand. Each extra step adds time on the bench and risk of damage to the board. Korhex is built to simplify that stage, a single dedicated MCU contact point instead of manual rework. 

Korhex Key Features:

• Direct MCU access on supported ECUs
• No component desoldering
• No manual pin connection
• Support for advanced Boot Glitch procedures
• Full integration with the Flex ecosystem
• Enhanced Workflow: Reduce physical preparation and simplify complex bench operations
• Growing Coverage: A platform designed for continuous protocol and application development.
• How to choose:
• 1. For Flex Full Master and Full Slave customers, only the Korhex hardware device needs to be purchased.
• 2. Flex customers who do not have a Full configuration must add the Boot Glitch software license FLS0.20 in addition to the Korhex hardware, or upgrade to Full.
  3. For New Customer you can buy the Bundle Package:  FLEX ECU & TCU Programmer with Full Master Version Software + Korhex
  
  Supports ECU types:
  
  Latest-generation Bosch MD1 / MG1

  How Korhex works?
  
  Korhex has been designed to integrate advanced hardware access directly into the Flex ECU programming workflow. It interacts directly with a specific contact point on the ECU microcontroller to enable the access required by supported advanced programming and unlocking procedures. 
  
  Connect & Position
  Prepare the ECU per the Flex-guided procedure and place Korhex on the designated MCU contact point via its dedicated masks.
  
  Access & Unlock
  Perform the required access and unlocking operation on supported ECUs - no desoldering, no manual Boot pin wiring.
  
  Program
  Continue directly in Flex with the standard programming procedure. The workflow is now integrated end-to-end inside the Flex procedure you already use.
  
  What You Can Do on Supported ECUs?
  
  Once access is granted, the available operations are the full set offered by the matching Flex protocol.
• Internal flash – Reading and writing the program memory.
• Internal EEPROM – Reading and writing the data area.
• Full backup – A complete copy before any change, so you can always go back.
• Boot unlock – Unlocking the protected unit through the dedicated procedures.
• Korhex Update：
  
  Korhex Support for Bosch MDG1 - TC298 and TC299
  Flex version 8.27.0.0 Now Available
   
  Korhex support expands to Bosch MDG1 control units equipped with TC298 and TC299 processors.
  In addition to the VFI - Voltage Fault Injection procedure, already in use for these units, technicians can now use Korhex to perform the unlock without the need to work on the PCB, thus reducing operation times and manual work.
  This new protocol also allows you to unlock the ECU and then work in Bench mode to complete read and write operations, ensuring a faster and more streamlined programming workflow.
  In order to use the new protocol, an FLS0.20 Boot Glitch license or a Flex Full FLS0.5 configuration is required.

  BOOT ACCESS. REIMAGINED. FEWER OPERATIONS. MORE DIRECT ACCESS.
  Traditional Boot procedures on modern protected ECUs may require several physical operations on the control unit. Korhex introduces a more direct, cleaner, and non-invasive approach on supported applications.
  
  FEWER OPERATIONS ON THE CONTROL UNIT
  Simplify ECU access by reducing the physical operations required before programming.
  
  NO DESOLDERING
  Avoid removing resistors or carrying out other unnecessary hardware modifications.
  
  NO MANUAL BOOT WIRING
  There is no need to manually connect the Boot pins during supported Korhex procedures.
  Position Korhex on the indicated MCU contact point and let Flex guide the procedure.
  
  DIRECT MCU ACCESS
  Korhex uses a specific contact point on the microprocessor to perform the access procedures provided for supported devices.
  Thanks to Boot Glitch technology and integration with Flex, the workflow requires less preparation and reduces physical handling of the ECU board.
  
  ENGINEERED FOR PROFESSIONALS, DESIGNED FOR ADVANCED ECU WORK
  Korhex was created to respond to the evolution of modern MCU architectures and to the needs of professionals who work on protected ECUs every day.
  A solution designed to make operations more linear, reduce invasive interventions, and achieve cleaner, easily repeatable procedures.
  
  FLEX + KORHEX, ONE ECOSYSTEM, DEEPER ACCESS.
  Korhex is not a standalone platform, but a hardware extension developed to increase the potential of the Flex ecosystem.
  Dedicated protocols and guided software procedures integrate access, unlocking, and programming into a single workflow.
  
  What's the Difference Between Traditional Boot and Korhex?
  
  The difference is not in the software. It is in everything that used to happen before the software. Here is what changes along the way.

  Step	Traditional boot	With Korhex
  Opening the ECU	Required	Required
  Reaching the solder side	Board must be flipped	Not needed
  Configuration resistors	Must be located and desoldered	No desoldering
  Boot pin connection	Wired by hand, one wire at a time	Direct contact through the kit template
  Equipment needed	Desoldering station, magnification, wires	Korhex and its positioning templates
  Risk to the board	Pads and tracks stressed on every job	Reduced: no joint is ever touched
  Repeatability	Depends on the operator's hand	Guided procedure, identical every time
  Putting it back together	Resoldering and restoration	Not required

  
  
  FAQ:
• Q: What is Korhex used for?
  A: Korhex is used during supported advanced ECU access procedures where direct interaction with the microcontroller is required. Depending on the ECU and Flex protocol, this can include Boot Glitch and other ECU unlocking procedures.
  
  Q: Is Korhex an ECU programmer?
  A: Korhex is not a standalone ECU programmer. It is a dedicated hardware extension of Flex. Flex manages the supported procedure and subsequent ECU programming operations.
  
  Q: Is Korhex a standalone tool?
  A: No. Korhex has been developed specifically for the Flex ecosystem and operates through dedicated procedures available in the Flex software.
  
  Q: How does Korhex access an ECU microcontroller?
  A: Korhex is positioned on a specific MCU contact point indicated by the corresponding Flex procedure. The hardware enables the required interaction with the microcontroller during supported access or unlocking operations.
  
  Q: Do I need to desolder resistors?
  A: Korhex is designed to avoid resistor desoldering on supported procedures where direct MCU contact can be used instead.
  
  Q: Which ECUs are compatible with Korhex?
  A: Compatibility depends on the ECU, microcontroller and Flex protocol. The list of supported applications is continuously updated through Flex releases and can be checked in the Flex Vehicle List.
  
  Q: Do I need a specific Flex license to use Korhex?
  A: Customers with a Flex Full Master or Full Slave configuration can use Korhex with the procedures included in their software package.
  Customers without a Full configuration can purchase the Flex Boot Glitch License FLS0.20M/S to access supported Korhex procedures.
  
  Q: Will new ECUs be added?
  A: Yes. Korhex has been designed as an evolving hardware platform. New supported applications and protocols released through the Flex ecosystem.
  
  Q: How is it different from traditional boot?
  A: The result is the same, the route is not. Traditional boot means flipping the board, desoldering the configuration resistors and wiring the pins by hand. With Korhex you rest the device on the MCU contact point the procedure indicates and never touch a solder joint.
  
  Q: Do I need to activate Korhex before using it?
  A: Yes, Korhex requires activation.
