New firmware misses certain communications on G4

[MTL_Emergencies]

I upgraded my G4 to firmware 1.33 but now it's not picking up communications from dispatch (I can hear units but no answer from dispatch and I even checked with a scanner).

The system I'm trying to listen: P25 Phase II with patched talkgroups (SERAM)
I didn't have any issues with v1.31

Have you tried re-programming the pager?

 

[MTL_Emergencies]

I did just that and the issue still remains.

I did just that and the issue still remains.

i will bring my G5 at work tomorrow and check if Seram working good I will let you know

 

[MTL_Emergencies]

Thanks, I suspect the problem is only with patched talkgroups ("Commandements"). I can (barely) listen to units communications but I'm getting 0 calls from the Centrale.
I can hear Operations good. I was able to listen to Ibus without any issues (which is also Phase II). RSP25 works good on my end too.

i always want to upgrade to the latest f/w but have learned to wait with unication as they fix some issues but create a few others, i am curious as to how much “clearer”the audio is on harris systems since that is the system my dept uses. i haven’t had any issues with that i’ve noticed but still curious

Two years from 1.31 to 1.33 ...

i have same problem as you maybe it’s because of the pps problem you can lookup a solution in the other tread here

Big announcement from unication

Seen on Facebook. Any ideas?

I also had the pps problem but I fixed it as they said in the other thread, but I still have the same issue with patch talkgroups. I'll try to revert to the old firmware.

yeah as we all know too well the time between the updates doesn’t mean much 😂

there's a beta 1.32 that I use on a G4

 

[Synchro39]

so i can confirm i have the same problem as @MTL_Emergencies on a G5 unit with new Firmware 1.33 on the same system SERAM in Montreal

 

[WX4JCW]

im gonna hold off upgrading till this is confirmed on other systems

that beta saved my one G5 from becoming a paper weight lol

i updated one of my G5 and have it mirror monitoring another with my last f/w, will let them run side by side for a while and report back

I sent my pager logs to Unication and they corrected the issue under firmware 1.34. I see there is improvement of radio ID decoding on Phase II transmissions.

Basically I couldn't hear my dispatch on Phase II patch talkgroups.
