Unable to load DM-1801 Unstable Firmware with CPS Loader
Posted: Thu Jun 11, 2020 1:25 pm
While the stable firmware will load successfully, the unstable 6/10/2020 and 6/11/2020 firmware will not load on my DM-1801. The dialog issues an error: "Wrong Model"... This is with 5/4/2020 stable firmware in the radio.
I can load it with the standalone firmware loader. Once the updated unstable firmware is in the radio, the CPS loader will load the unstable firmware again.
I have the correct cable in usage. During the failure the CPS firmware loader would load the stable firmware.
In reading and checking the radios' codeplugs, I noticed that on the "Basic Information" window, they both show "GD-77" as the "Model Name" for some reason, and I cannot update this on the dialog, and write it to the radio using CPS.
I'm not sure how this model number even got programmed into the radios. Is there a way to update this manually? Could this have caused the problem?
