I tried with "chirp-daily-20150814” GTK 2.24.10 and got the following error.
An error has occurred
The upload was stopped because the firmware version of the image (N5R-20 BFB297 ) does not match that of the radio (N5R-219BFB297 ).
I bought the cable from Amazon at the time of purchase of my first radio. The package says BaoFengTech.com Programming Cable Genuine FTDI Cable.
Does that help?

Craig,
The first thing that you should is stop using the CHIRP v0.4.x stable build. It is 17 months old. There have been many changes to Baofeng radios in the list 12 months that require the latest daily build for support. Once you've done that we can see where you stand.
Also which chip is in your USB programming cable? FTDI or Prolific?

I just downloaded the new version of CHIRP and it seems to do the frequency programming fine. But I have noticed lately with both the 0.4.0 and 0.4.1 versions, that the Power-On Message that I have programmed, does not come across to the radio. I have menu item 38 on the radio set to msg and the “Message” dialog is set in CHIRP but it does not come across. There may be other things that do not program as well but the radio performs in the few modes that I use so I dont’ know about any other settings.
Also, with both versions, after the programming I get an error message “CHIRP quit unexpectedly” and a long list of comments. I have included a screen shot of the first page. Incidentally, clicking “Reopen” does not reopen CHIRP
After this happened several times, I re-installed the Python runtime and had the same results. Do I need to un-install the old Python runtime before installing the latest one?
Have you got any other ideas?
I’ll look forward to your response.
