Description

Using 5RM model selection driver. Can download from 5RM but attempting to upload shows vendor and model greyed out. Can make and save changes to memory in radio and they show on download. Can't upload any changes using previous downloaded .img file. Have changed usb cable from a UV-5R and still the same negative results.

Upload always has the vendor/model greyed out because you can only upload an image to the vendor/model you downloaded from. This is not specific to your radio.

Have you actually tried clicking the button to try and it failed? If so, please upload a debug log with Help->Report or update a bug.

Dan, thank you for the prompt address of my issue. All is good here after
your enlightenment. Was using a previous download from a UV-5R to
modify and upload to a AR-5RM.......no go duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I downloaded
and modified the 5RM and it uploaded just fine.
Thanks again.

Any way, other than PAYPAL to contribute?
