[chirp_users] Firmware error
New Baofeng uv-5r out of box, purchased Saturday 9/6 at hamfest from vendor. Installed chirp 4.1 and downloaded driver prolific, 7/31/2007, version 3.2.0.0. Device manager tells me it is working correctly. I can download from the radio and add the NOAA bands into the software. When I attempt to upload I receive an ERROR of unsupported firmware N5R3409BFP3-25. I previously installed chirp daily build for 8/15/2015 and got an error of wrong model selection of radio, there was only one uv-5r to choose from. Running windows 7 professional Any help will be appreciated. Terry CheekPastorCalvary Missionary Baptist Churchsermonaudio.com/pastorterry
Terry, Device manager is telling you that driver version 3.2.0.0 is working correctly. That’s a good thing. You do not want to run CHIRP 0.4.1 It is over a year old and will not support your new radio. Always go with the Latest Daily Build of CHIRP.
N5R3409 is very new, and may still need to be added to the Latest Daily Build list.
John

Terry,
Go back to the latest daily build as fast as you can. No Baofeng radio owner should be using the 17 month old CHIRP v0.4.1 stable build unless the only radio they have is the UV-3R or BF-888s (or close variant).
Your problem is you are selecting the wrong radio model. Based on the firmware version, your radio has 3 power levels (1/4/8 watts) so you must choose the BF-F8HP model.
Jim KC9HI
I've got to wonder why the Chirp website hasn't been updated to, at least, use one of the latest builds as "the" official build. Time and again we see users here on the latest official build having problems.

Try reading, etc the above. I have a brand new UV-5v2+ and I used the driver for my MAC. Software worked perfectly. It has it’s tiny quirks but does the job.

Tom, I got it working this way: installed the 8/14/2015 daily update, then googled the the firmware error and read where someone with a similar error (3401) had to program using the BF-f8HP model phone in the software. So I thought what the heck, it's not programming now! and it worked so I programmed some of my channels and even tested over a local repeater. Maybe we can use this to help others because if this firmware is the latest I am sure others will have the same issue.
