<ul></ul><p>It may be at step 4 where your problem starts. For the downloaded image from the new radio, modify that image, and then upload that one.<br>
It looks like you attached your old image file that you used for years. If the above step correction does not work for you, attach a copy of the newly downloaded image as well, and the debug log related to the new radio. This will help someone to look at the details.</p>

<p>I attached a file I loaded from a factory fresh radio (Ansoko_A-8S_Factory_20200902.img) then tried to upload it. The original image fails at block 20. </p>
<p>Changed the image to FSR channels. Same failure at a different block.</p>
<p>I tried 20200902 build, same results.</p>

<p>Thanks for the tip. I failed to include it, but I did try that in my troubleshooting (download the config from a brand new radio w/ the 20200807 daily, and then try to re-upload to the same radio, and to a different radio). Unfortunately, it exhibited the same result - intermittent partial upload with a "failed to send block xxxx" message.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, I did not save the new image (and since I was able to get the radios re-imaged with the old CHIRP version, I can't re-download it). Sorry.</p>

<ul></ul><p>I've ordered more of the radios and I will test again. I will also upload the default image for your reference (hopefully this weekend).<br>
Thanks for you help (and time and effort!) - this software really is amazing, and I would love to see it continue to be useful!</p>

<p>Quick question: Where do I get the debug logs?</p>

The problems listed in issue <a class="issue tracker-1 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Bug: H-777 (as BF-888) failed to send to radio during upload (partial - stops at various locations) - ... (Closed)" href="https://chirpmyradio.com/issues/8197">#8197</a> are still present using the BF-888 Baofeng definition or the new Retevis H-777 profile. The radio will download fine but fails on upload at various places (Block 0000, 0028, etc.) There are a lot of these radios being sold. I successfully updated a set of radios in late 2019 but now it is broken. I tried the oldest archive (January 2020) and it fails also.<br>
Thanks for the great work and I have gladly contributed financially in the past. Debug is attached as well as the old previously working image and a new image done by the new Chirp version.<br>

It corrects the upload issue for the legacy BF-888s and newer Retevis H777 and H777 Plus models that I just received. Here is how you use it...</p>
<p>1 download the test driver module and save it to a convenient location<br>
2 click "Help" in the CHIRP menu bar<br>
3 enable "Enable Developer Functions"<br>
4 click "File" in the CHIRP menu bar<br>
5 click "Load Module" in the list that appeared<br>
6 locate and load the test driver module that was saved in step 1</p>
<p>The CHIRP background will turn read to let you know that a custom driver module has been loaded. You can now test downloading/uploading to your radio.</p>
<p>Note 1: This test driver module does not permanently modify your CHIRP installation. It must be loaded every time you load CHIRP before you can download/upload from/to the radios that it supports.</p>
<p>Note 2: <em>Do not right-click</em> the custom driver module link to download it. <em>You must left-click</em> the custom driver module link and then click the "download" link on the following page that loads.</p>
<p>Let me know how this works and I will get a patch formally submitted.</p>
