Hi,
It's a mini USB. not a micro.


Cheers.

;) no problem, it was just to avoid to grab/buy a wrong cable.

Unfortunately, all of them didn't work (I'll buy a new cable from the dealer )

The MD9600 cable is a standard USB A to USB mini cable. There is nothing special about it.

Note however that there are also a lot of 'Power Only' USB mini cables out there that are supplied as charging cables for many devices. They only have the two power wires and no connections for the data lines.

Hi, can I ask what the "J" refers to at the beginning of the firmware files?
Many thanks.

Welcome.
I have a rather in my opinion unusual problem, maybe someone can suggest some quick and proven solution.
I have already installed openGD77 on several devices and never had this problem.
I follow the instructions. I put the radio into programming mode, the radio flashes. The connection to the computer is correct. I fire up CPS, first I give the donor file, then the opengd77 software in the latest version.
The installation process begins, after several seconds I have a message that successfully completed and that complete.
There is a disconnection of the radio from the computer and the radio continues to flash, as if in programming mode.
Pressing the power key has no effect.
It's as if something is hanging up.
Disconnecting and re-connecting the power supply does not bring a solution, the radio's display continues to flash.
Do you have any suggestions?
