MD-380 old vocoder no display #8

Closed dbaker1611 closed 7 years ago

dbaker1611 commented 7 years ago

With the latest experimental firmware I lose the display on the MD-380. It stays on for a moment during turn-on then goes off. Not able to see to access settings to deal with display. re-loading MFG firmware corrects issue but when re-loading experimental firmware same issue. At the moment you can either chose "flash" or "flashgps", any chance on a "flash" for the old vocoder?

The "flash" worked under 3.08 but not working now under 3.09.

Thank you!

Found this is already being discussed here: https://github.com/travisgoodspeed/md380tools/issues/687

Yes, I was going to recommend going to the Google group on this. I was thinking that you might be able to just drive through the keystrokes into the back light settings and get a different value saved. I suspect it's a boundary condition not tested. You would need someone to read off the exact steps to get there since you can'take see the screen!

found a work-a-round on one of the other areas where having your codeplug or manually setting Backlight to 5s or anything else other than Always under Radio Settings on main utilities seems to work. Radio seems to be working now under the experimental firmware but not able to have Backlight always on now.

Ok, I've forwarded this on to others who seem to be having the same issues. Thanks for letting me know what you found out!
