TYT MD-2017 Alpha 2.2

Post by VK3KYY » Sun Mar 17, 2024 9:40 am

A new Alpha 2.2 version is available for the TYT MD2017 / Retevis RT-82

downloads/MD2017/Firmware/5a723711fcbd4 ... da26a47000

This version incorporates the same bug fixes and enhancements as the OpenGD77 firmware for the other supported radios.

It does not add any new MD-2017 related functionality




* Fixes inconsistencies in UI when change power levels by holding P1/P2 (MD-2017 Specific bug)
* Fixes problems of the VFO and Channel screen sometimes being blank
* Fixes problems with AT1846S TRx chip register cache system
* Fixes problem when attempting to transmit DTMF in satellite mode.
* Fixes QuickKey problems e.g. in VFO Dual Watch
* Updated multiple translations
* Romanian added. Note: The latest CPS is required to be able to select Romanian
* Adds Force DMO open to DMR channels. This sets a channel to operate in simplex / DMO even when the Tx and Rx frequencies are different. The CPS has also been updated to support this option.

Thanks to Daniel F1RMB for his work on this new version, and thanks again to the translators

Is the frequency correct for both FM and FMN now?

Yes, but we had to use a hack to fix this, but I don't link the hack so we are still investigating a better fix

The screen isn't blanking for me. Is this an issue for anyone else?

I guess you're talking about backlight:
