VK3KYY i am ready to asist with solving a COM port problems. Plese, when you will have time for sure, let me know. I am IT stuff, litle programmer (python, PHP) and i have Windows in strange Czech language, than i can do what you want for test. I am here a listen Just for remember.VK3KYY wrote: ↑Sat May 23, 2020 9:11 pmmouseman73 wrote: ↑Sat May 23, 2020 12:59 pmThank you for info. MD-760 is more complete same as GD77 instead of other, but firmware from Radioddity isnt fit inside Tytera. I have no backup of original. I dont want flash back, only one reason i have, because of OpenGD77 not communicate with my computer. As i wrote, i did milion of things but still not and some settings isnt possible make on radio directly.
BTW my Win10 is Czech - this is probably reason why "no com port found" as you and other people from my Country trying solve in different thread. But if you want open this problem again, i am ready for cooperation, i can give you for example Teamviewer to my computer for testing some, or i can run what you want, make reports. This problem with non-working CPS give all OpenGD77 to 50 percent of usage (for me). But i like it, the idea make open firmware is great - i want use it, but without CPS i have a problem
In the Windows Device Manager, what us the device name for Com port device when the OpenGD77 is connected ?

If you run Windows PowerShell, then use the command
Get-WMIObject Win32_SerialPort
You should see a list of all the COM ports and it should include the OpenGD77 COM port e.g.
Code: Select all
Caption : OpenGD77 (COM70)
ConfigManagerErrorCode : 0
ConfigManagerUserConfig : False
CreationClassName : Win32_SerialPort
Description : OpenGD77
DeviceID : COM70
ErrorCleared :
ErrorDescription :
InstallDate :
LastErrorCode :
MaxBaudRate : 115200
MaximumInputBufferSize : 0
MaximumOutputBufferSize : 0
MaxNumberControlled :
Name : OpenGD77 (COM70)
OSAutoDiscovered : True
PNPDeviceID : USB\VID_1FC9&PID_0094\5&26670DD9&0&3
(The radio must be connected and turned on etc)

I moved the posts about the CPS to a new thread (here)

Re: CPS problems on some Non-English versions of Windows
It looks like the problem is in the CPS
Please can you download and install Visual Studio Community Edition
https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/
Then download the CPS sources
https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/ ... master.zip
Unzip the source.
Double click on the file OpenGD77CPS.sln
This will run Visual Studio and open the CPS source
In the Extras folder, open the "OpenGD77Form"
and look for the code at lines 1574, which handle finding the COM port
Put a break where it calls
And then run and then step into that function and see if you can find why its not finding the OpenGD77 port
Its possible that perhaps the function call to GetClassGUIDs() looking for items with the className = "Ports" does not work on some languages, perhaps perhaps "Ports" needs to be translated
Anyway, if you step through that area of the code, you should be able to find where the code is failing to find the OpenGD77 device

Re: CPS problems on some Non-English versions of Windows
BTW.
Daniel tried installing Czech language support on his Windows 10, but the CPS still works fine.
So its still a mystery why it won't work on some machines

Re: CPS problems on some Non-English versions of Windows
Sorry Roger, there is mistake (i thing) i can found in Extras "OpenGD77Form" as you wrote - there is only OpenGD77Form.cs in folder OpenGD77 or i am totaly wrong? Can you check it. Thx.VK3KYY wrote: ↑Wed May 27, 2020 4:08 amIt looks like the problem is in the CPS

Re: CPS problems on some Non-English versions of Windows
Where somebody "somehow" solving it, there is allready working on Czech language pack. This we know. I was tried lots of magic, changing language, changing timezone, multiply restarts, and no, i am not solving it. Can be version solution (home/pro) can be version of win10, can be update problems, can be problems on hardware (i am using Lenovo laptop). I dont know. But i hope, now we step by step investigate and solve
Re: CPS problems on some Non-English versions of Windows
Yes. Its
OpenGD77Form.cs
But expand the arrow in the project window, and it reveals 3 sub files.
Double click the file called OpenGD77Form (the one where the icon is orange)
This will open the code for the Form

Re: CPS problems on some Non-English versions of Windows
BTW.
Do you mean, you think its not a problem with the Czech language, but something with version of Windows eg. Home version ?
