I would be helpful if you would share the exact error message or attach a debug.log file.
Here is the --verbose console output - let me know if you wanted something else:

Sometimes the workaround can be as simple as pressing on the plug to make the connection to the socket during the cloning process.
Yeah, I did try that, but I can't be certain it is making a connection. It looks like the base of the plug extends all the way down, and from that point it seems to have the same connector depth as on a speaker mic that seems to work fine. So, I'm guessing it is ok, but the cable is right up against the side of the device so I can't be certain. No amount of wiggling seems to make a difference.
If I use the UV-5R EX driver with my BF8HP I get this output:

(This seems reasonable to me, since I am in fact selecting the wrong radio.)
