• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

I have a XG25p I wrote to the radio using RPM10B and it has R02B16 on the radio..I guessing it’s not compatible with the software or how you downgrade the Radio or get it back to where it was?

Thanks

DO NOT ASK ME FOR HELP PROGRAMMING YOUR RADIO. NO.
RPM should have given you a message indicating incompatible firmware if that was the case.

A persdata error means there's something in the personality that isn't compatible with the firmware in the radio. This can happen if you were to, for example, attempt to stuff a fully featured codeplug from a totally whored-out P7300 into a totally different radio like the XG25 without any edits.

Roll back to the original file the radio came with. You did save it, I hope?

If not, create a new file for that radio from RPM and make it with just a single conventional analog channel and send it to the radio. That should remove the error.

Now you start adding system data which is easy and quick enough with RPM if your sets data is all global. Save and write the radio and check for errors. No errors? Add more. Repeat until you find out what part of the programming causes the problem.

And the features in the radio may give you a clue.

For example, maybe you're trying to enable encryption and that feature's not present.

Or you are trying to put P25 data into the radio without that feature.

Harris radios don't error check like Motorola radios do. Motorola CPS is very grumpy about those things
but it also tells you exactly what the problem is.

But a Harris radio just lets you dump anything into it and then YOU have to figure out why it's not working right.

Yeah gotta put a new personality into the radio. My xg75p did the same thing (months after putting the profile in no less) and when we tried to recover the profile from the radio it kept causing RPM to shutdown. Blasted a new profile in it and it worked just fine. Never did figure out what was wrong in the old profile because we didn’t honestly care to because it was only a test profile with a bunch of different things in it

Do you know if the new file worked in it before? I guess I left that out. We put back in a profile that was previously known to work on the rwdio

Nowhere near a paved road, away from the maddening
Harris TSM 39-01: Rev A hardware XG -25P ’s will be become inoperative if re-fla

TSM 39-01: Rev A hardware XG-25P’s will be become inoperative if re-flashed with earlier radio firmware.


The XG-25P Rev A portable can be identified by the part numbers shown in Table 1. The radio will be loaded with XLP R03A29 (or later) and BurnApp 13D (or later) as stated in XLP Software Release Notes 14221-1800-8000 Rev J (or later). **DO NOT** reflash this radio to earlier BurnApp or radio firmware. Failure to follow the release notes instructions will cause the radio to become permanently inoperable.

Still having issues? If so message me, I can load the current code but you will need RPM 14 or RPM2 to program it



No it’s been done and over with and not losing the ability for RPM 10b thanks anyways
