Problem:
I have failed to update the Xhorse VVDI Mini OBD Tool firmware from 1.0.5 to 2.0.1. I have no luck in the App or via the Upgrade kit. Is there any solution?

If the version is lower than 1.5.0, try several times, change PC or network, if all failed, device information is missing. Need to send back for repair.

If it is not possible to update from the Upgrade kit on PC, for example Win11, you may need to install the xhorse upgrade kit system driver.

Problem:
I need to program key for my Toyota RAV 4 2016, lost all keys using xhorse vvdi mini obd tool and 8A non-smart key adapter. But the app says the adapter was bound to other devices. Any solution?
Solution:
8A adapter can only be bound to 1 xhorse device (key tool max pro, vvdi2, key tool plus or vvdi mini obd tool).
Must use the adapter with the device already combined.
For example, if bind 8A control box adapter with vvdi2, you cannot use it with mini obd tool.
