Glad you got it working.
Isn’t it great when a plan comes together.

Another Mystery of the  UniV5Rse solved.

You need the:

 

N5R-213(140906N)(factory).img

 

For your radio I recon . .

 

Here: http://kc9hi.dyndns.org/uv5r/programming/CHIRPrecovery/

 

Use CHIRP Ver. chirp-daily-2014-20140714 to upload to your radio.

Then.. ONLY use the latest version after or you'll do it again . .

 

Blurb is available at www.miklor.com

Hey All,

 

First of all, thanks so much for your wonderful radio community resources. 

 

I'm new to all of this, but just screwed up and so I've started actually learning!

 

Using Chirp, I uploaded an image from one of my radios onto the same model UV-5RA radio with different firmware (oops). I now can only receive on that radio if holding the mon button. I think I need to upload an image downloaded from a radio with the same firmware and then import my local frequency list using my CSV export.

 

The problem is, I can't find a chirp image with the right firmware version. The radio lists it as "N5R-213BFB297". I see at http://kc9hi.dyndns.org/uv5r/programming/CHIRPrecovery/ there are both N5R-213 and BFB297 images separately.

 

When I try to upload the BFB297 image using the latest daily Chirp software (chirp-daily-20141210), I get this message:

 

"Upload finished, but the 'Other Settings' could not be sent because the firmware version of the image (  Ver  BFB297 ) does not match that of the radio (N5R-213BFB297 )."

 

If I use the N5R-213 image, I get the following error:

Ident:

Radio Version is 'N5R-213BFB297 '

Image Special Block is 000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 00   ........

 

Radio Special Block is 000: 38 76 03 b5 b0 26 39 00   8v...&9.

----------------------------

 

Can I just modify the special block of the image? Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks, Simon.
