Hi All,
Just ordered a USDS100 and wondering how many Western Australians have this unit ?
Understand software is limited, but would appreciate any advice.
Cheers, Rolan

Hi, Also To update software they need the serial number, but the number on the radio and box are different. When I tried the program it says checksum number is incorrect. Inside label is 383B58000069 and on radio screen is 38302058000069-007.
The box says 58000069.
Uniden upgrade pages does not accept letters.
Continues to say numbers are incorrect. Appreciate any advice.

Upgrading the firmware in Australia has been quite hit-or-miss. The AU team have a highly delayed process to review firmware before making it available for the version of the USDS Sentinel app that you need to use.

That's the other thing, make sure you download the version of Sentinel that works with the USDS variation of the devices, otherwise I think you'll run into problems.

Regarding the upgrades for unlocking various features, I didn't have any issues with that, but, it was several years ago that I did it. I do recall I had to use the Home site (it had a different URL then, but, that seems to be where it is now).

The USDS version of Sentinel seemed to stop at version 2.0.5, which is what I have been using. I have not tried the non USDS version 3.x to see if that works.

As for the serial number, can't help you, as I am pretty sure I went with what the screen said and it worked. The Uniden Australia people did answer my support questions years ago, but, it took several days. Good luck!
