This is the service bulletin that had to be done to make that happen on an S-Tec G1000 Mooney: https://mooney.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/SBM20-306B.pdf

This is the version my neighbor is on 0401.30 and that service bulletin it to get G1000 to this version but it will not save engine dara to the SD.

apparently Schllc was able to goto 0401.34 as a non waas airplane. Is the 0401 the version of the GIA bootloader? And .34 is the operating system version? Where the snag or misconnect seems to be is that in order to update .30 to .34 the bootloader has to be updated and people (avionic techs)are saying that new bootloader only works with waas installed equipment. So while the .34 could work without waas the bootloader to start the .34 would check for a waas equipment and fail to boot. But if the bootloader is the 0401 version i do not see why the bootloader would need an update as its already at the correct version. We just want the operating system updated from.30 to .34 and tgere does not seem to be a SB out to do just that part of the update.

AFAIK the „major“ version 0401 is Garmin‘s OEM id for the M20 specific G1000 software bundle. The „minor“ version e.g .30, .34. .37 identifies the release. Each release bundle contains the software for the different LRU‘s, each with their individual version with different individual schema and numbering but matching to the overall bundle  

The OEM identifier (0401 for M20 (don’t know about the Ultras)) is different for each G1000 equipped aircraft type (DA40, C172, ..).

@Pmaxwell would know if and how it can be done.

Yea thanks for the additional link but i think they are confusing.34 with .30. Neighbors did contact maxwell and they said not possible. They are going there soon to get maxwell to install the LHS in their mooney as they liked it so much riding in mine they want one too.
