Apparently, k5prog reads the EEPROM (attached) using ./k5prog -r -v

read block 0x1F80 98%
Sucessfuly read eeprom

EEPROM.txt

I don't have access to a Windows box now (working on it).
I'm trying to find a semi-secure way to test writing firmware using k5prog.

If k5prog can read eeprom, the radio is not in bootloader mode. Try using the flash option in k5prog to flash the radio. K5prog is safe to use for flashing, although larger firmware files may not boot. In bootloader mode the display should be off and the flashlight on, and the flashlight should start to blink as soon as firmware is written.

There must be something wrong with this particular device. Apparently, the radio is in bootloader mode (light up, screen off after PTT+ON), but it still reads the EEPROM. Cannot flash k5_flash.raw as described in the k5prog repo. Tried with CHIRP next, but didn't work either. The cable works with other radio, and CHIRP, so I assume this device has something peculiar. I'll try with Windows later.

In any case, the problem has nothing to do with your software. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you very much.

the windows software can tell you the firmware version of the radio. it would be interesting to see if this is related to some newer revision of the bootloader and firmware.
