All Uniden Rebanding Updates Released (Including BR330T)

[UPMan]

This can replace the current sticky.


In case you've missed the other announcements, we have complete our rollout of Rebanding firmware for all supported models. All updates, including what other features were added, how to install, and the updates themselves can be found on the following pages:

• BC246T Update
• BCT15 Update
• BCD396T Update
• BCD996T Update
• BCT8 Update
• BC898T Update
• BC296D Rebanding Update
• BC796D Rebanding Update
• BR330T Rebanding Update

Thank you for your patience while these were prepared and tested. Juggling the release of 9 updates while also preparing for the release of the new models has kept us all busy around here the last few months...and we've got plenty of other stuff coming to keep us busy going forward, too. So, back to work!

On the 330 update it says registration key needed when making Major Version Change. Where do I get that?

Also I went to myuniden and the last update there that shows up is from 2007. I did get the files I need from BR330TFirmwareUpdate < UnidenMan4 < TWiki

[UPMan]

I cannot find anywhere in the instructions where it says a registration key is needed (it isn't).

The My Uniden site has not yet been updated with the new links (which will point you back to the link in my original post).

[DaveIN]

Nice work Uniden! Glad to see it went without too much pain to fix the band plans.

[UPMan]

Ok, I see it now...you get the prompt when you do the update itself. This prompt should not be there...I've update the instructions to clarify it (and get engineering working on a revision w/o the prompt).

I have an error getting you a screen shot right now

I held l/o and 6 and do get a light

[ScottL]

Just updated mine with no apparent issues.

Thanks Paul.

[dave3825]

you have a 330?

Paul
With not batts, just ac power, hit L/O and 6 and scanner went to full on with the light and text.

Removed ac and put batts in hit L/O and 6 got only the light with no text

It has updated but would not without batts and using ac power

[hotbob62]

I take it that thier will be no update (rebanding) for the BC250D & BC785D?

While holding down L/O and 6 you should plug in the AC (i.e. hold down first). All my samples go to light w/no text as they should.

[UPMan]

It is not possible to update the firmware in any other model.

[JefK]

I noticed there is not a "What is changed in this update" on the 296D page. Can one be added to list what has been changed?

I am hoping it is more than just the rebanding, but I was not sure since it was not specific.

[UPMan]

It is just the rebanding...

Wow... I'm amazed there's enough power left to open the program... (reference PC desktop image posted a few above).

That's his QuickLaunch tray on the bottom...not running apps

UPMan, Any word or ETA on both the 396 and 996 UASD being updated to allow the programming of the rebanded sites?
Thanks.

[davidmc36]

Is the official release for the 296 identical to the Beta or were any changes made?

Plug in the power while you are holding down L/O + 6

Is there another, firmware update for the bct15 or, is this just stating that all, the uniden models have been updated now I'm confused! Thanks!
