Another problem with Xcal3

Ok i heard back from SCT to get my new stock file to fixed the curupted file. n e ways it worked great.. also canned tunes also work good... but now i have another problem.. but this time its with Matts tunes.. first off when i first plug in the device it'll say quikly wut setting ur currently locked on.. when i try to program custom tune it uploads and everything just fine.. then i unplug the device and start it up and rev it a bit to see if it blows black smoke then previous problems... and it does.. so when i plug it back in it says strategy locked.. i got it to say economy locked once but still blew black smoke and then trie the other 3 tunes and now its still locked.. i do return to stock before each tune to see if that helps and still same thing says it locked.. how do i unlock it for custom tunes??/ is this a stupid simple thing im missing on livewire? i also tried deleteing and unzipping matts tunes again then unload them on the device. If u guys havent heard of this problem then maybe ill send a message or mail to matt, see wut he thinks.. i'v spent enough money on long distance calls to sct so i thought i would see wut u guys think first.. thanx again for putting up with me.
