CHIRP

Can you get any amount of an image if you try to download with CHIRP? If so, please attach it here. Also, please attach a debug log of the attempt (regardless of if successful).

FYI, tomorrow's daily build will check for the firmware version and fail if it's >=291 just to limit any confusion and potential damage until we know further.

Hello Dan,

The new firmware model will not communicate with the legacy Baofeng software or the last CHIRP daily bill. Baofeng has a new version of their software that will only read and write the new BFB291 firmware version. I'm uploading you a copy of it's dat file.

Thanks.

Resnage of Test 4 debug4b.log added

Test 5 Got am img file this time it looks pretty good the offsets on ch 2 and 4 are wrong but looks pretty good i am adding it to the files and will add the debug log too

Could not upload adding debugU1.log no led flash and no upload

Test 6 WAS able to up load and download alright Non standard offsets are a little buggy but every thing else seems to be alright when i run across a non standard offset i will not download but i was able to upload it standard ham band offsets are working ok

The Offset Problem could have been a Bad programing of the radio after reprogramming it and downloading it is ok see the image I added

Hi folks,

I will attach here as I might be of help here.
I installed the latest daily build and got the same what Danny had before. Radio reports unknown vendor.
Debug info attached.

Greets, Lars

Just to back up what Morgan and Shawn reported.

My Baofeng UV-5R received from 409shop.com isn't recognized by the daily build of CHIRP. I had the exact same experience as Morgan R.

I pulled this from the debug log:

Vendor is '6t\x04', expected ('DH\x04', '\x00\x04y')
Radio reported unknown vendor

Same with the UV-E5

Vendor is '6t\x04', expected ('DH\x04', '\x00\x04y')
Radio reported unknown vendor

debug log from 20121005 attached

another log for the uv-5r hopefully its helpful,
Thanks
Alex

Tried downloading a BFB291 and BFB251 radio with the October 7 build Both work Added is the debug log from the BFB251 for reference My internet was down from Friday night to yesterday Starting to catch up thanks four you good work

I've got a UV-5R, just bought it, and it report BFB291. Attached is the debug log running, chirp-daily-20121007.

Using a UV-5R (reports BFB291). Attached is the debug log running, chirp-daily-20121012.

Try ed 2 different radios one would upload the other would not

Added both debug files both radios BFB291 Firmware

I am starting to think some these newer firm ware radios may have io problems

Getting Closer... Daily Build 20121013
Test run with UV5R BFB231 and UV-E5 BFB291.

.
Upload/Download works great with both radios with no problem.
.
However, the saved .img file from the BFB231 unit will not upload to the BFB291 unit.
The image files are not transferable betreen the two.
.
Log file from BFB291 unit after uload attemp attached.

Good result! ... log attached

Using a UV-5R (reports BFB291). Attached is the debug log running, chirp-daily-20121013.

Upload/download seems to work. Made some changes on channel listing, and seen the change work on the actual radio,

I've not done anything more ambitious than this, as I'm new to this radio. However, looking forward to doing things like extending the frequency range, as I'd like to Rx on airband.

Thanks for the good work.

radio would not download with this version

added debug log

The Last debug log may have been due to a usb problem this one has a missing block

As of r1758, settings support should be restored for the newer firmware. I'm going to close this as done and we can open new bugs for additional issues as appropriate.
