Is there a memory map diagram available?

Since I am just starting to look at the firmware and CPS, I wonder it there is a diagram of the memory layout of the device(s). Don't get me wrong, if one does not exist, I would be more than happy to start a shared Google doc or something to document these.

Yes and no..

Jason VK7ZJA has 2 web pages ( search for gd-77 tune, and gd-77 mods. ), which has some overall memory map info for the GD-77.

Addresses of the codeplug sections are defined in the codeplug source code file.

I don’t think it’s worth documenting this, because in the longer term it’s possible we may end up moving everything to make better use of the memory

Note also that there are minor modifications vs. the OEM codeplug layout. At the very least there's a change to the size of the zones. Other than that I think the only differences are that a bunch of features aren't supported on OpenGD77 - mostly features that are less useful in the Amateur world, like STE.

We're also using the end of the SMS codeplug space to hold our non-volatile settings, because we don't current support SMS's and there really does not need to be that many predefined messages that could be available to send, even when / if we ever implement SMS
