[chirp_users] I think I need a newer firmware (factory) file than was listed on KC0HI
Dear Members,
My friends radio seems to have the dreaded audio blocking problem after another friend tried to program it. I think it has
A corrupted Settings .
I downloaded the latest daily build and have this information:
1st firmware message: N5R2407
2nd firmware message: BFB297
6+[power-on message: 150425N
Using this information I went to KC9HI's listing or factory or rest image files and found:
N5R2407(141006N)
But no
N5R2407(150425N)
Does anybody here have the correct image file for this radio or know where I can find it?
Am I out in Left field somewhere?
Any help or suggestions on how to get this radio back into this world would be appreciated.
It is a brand new radio so maybe the factory image lists just have not caught up with the newer
Versions. Since I was not the first person to try to upload the channels listing to this radio I
Have no idea what was done before me.
Thanks for the bandwidth.

I don't have the info you need, but this is why you always read the radio first and save the image, just in case something does brick it.

David,
Here is what I would recommend...
Download and use "N5R2401(141006N)(factory).img"
It will replace the "main" part of memory (the part that needs fixed and doesn't need to exactly match), but then will stop with an error when the upload gets to the "aux" part of memory because the firmware version being uploaded doesn't match the firmware of the radio. This will leave the "aux" part of memory untouched and it doesn't need repaired anyway.
