few issues:
1. using Samsung galaxy S24 mobile phone, (6.2 inch screen), photo added shows some text is missing due to App resolution or Auto size per Device. maybe its more of A Tablet oriented.
2. when using the Quick Scan feature, enter a DMR frequency then stop and re enter a difrent DMR channel stil shows the last frequency.
3. when using the Advaned Scan feature, i selected DMR simplex CLI, adjusted frequency and gain but nothing, it only shows this line:
Audio In Device: rtl:0:455.950M:46:0:8 but no info, sure no Audio or SPS hunt

I'm not sure what's going on, but it started in v+8 and is still going on.

When I try to listen to Philly P25 P1, it has always worked great from day one. Since +8, I have no active call or recent call activity in the scanner tab. Everything in the Network and Site tabs are working. They're showing activity from TGs and RIDs, but no audio or anything appearing in the active call section.

Delaware County P25 P2 is working, but the audio is more garbled than before and the TSBK is sky high.

Switching appears to be ok now.

All prior information in the tabs under the Network tab are not clearing when switching from one system to another. All new information just gets added to the prior information.

Sites are updating after switching systems.

Now, I just switched from a P2 system to a P1 system and the information under the network tabs cleared out, so it must be just when switching from P1 to P2, if that helps.

I have it running on my tablet and it looks great!

I'll keep it running and switching systems to see what goes on.

With the 1.0.0+11 update not receiving voice and the TSBK locks up. Tried to go back to previous software, but it tells me bad file.

When I switch to an imported DMR system, most say "No Control Channels" and "8770 km away".

When I use Quick Scan, I get normal activity.

Also, encrypted talkgroups are not being imported. When activity occurs, it just shows the TG number.

I've only tested on DMR, from what you've seen is it normal for it to continuously scan through all of the control channels of a site? I watch the log, it hits the active control channel and starts scrolling quickly..but then goes to the next control channel and continues to cycle through all of them repeatedly. Is it supposed to stay on the active control channel? I did hear some activity but not a lot. This site is close to me so I know signal strength isn't an issue (full bars on my scanner) I know DMR development hasn't begun yet, just curious if this was normal

I haven't gotten that far. Almost every system that I try to import has no control channels for any site.

I'll have to try again with a system that lists control channels and/or watch when I do a quick scan.

Same problem on Moto. On the site screen can't see the site number and on scan screen can't see talk group name. Also having the lockup and not receiving audio problem at times.

Site switching has only been tested for p25, I'll have to make updates to the app for it to work with DMR

Sorry I should have said hold time after a conversation. If it could be adjustable so if there is a response you would get it versus going back to scanning and lose a reply. Would it be possible to show the RSSI it would be helpful to see if your on a good single. Thanks
Hold time is definitely something I would like to work on after fixing some bugs first

I'm not sure what's going on, but it started in v+8 and is still going on.

When I try to listen to Philly P25 P1, it has always worked great from day one. Since +8, I have no active call or recent call activity in the scanner tab. Everything in the Network and Site tabs are working. They're showing activity from TGs and RIDs, but no audio or anything appearing in the active call section.

Delaware County P25 P2 is working, but the audio is more garbled than before and the TSBK is sky high.

Switching appears to be ok now.

All prior information in the tabs under the Network tab are not clearing when switching from one system to another. All new information just gets added to the prior information.

Sites are updating after switching systems.

Now, I just switched from a P2 system to a P1 system and the information under the network tabs cleared out, so it must be just when switching from P1 to P2, if that helps.

I have it running on my tablet and it looks great!

I'll keep it running and switching systems to see what goes on.
I'm looking into this now, I'm hearing calls on my system so I'm trying to see what else might be causing the issue.
It could be how I handled site switching, locks DSD from switching frequencies for a short while to ensure it doesn't flop back to a previous system or site.

Does anyone near a DMR site have access to a HackRF and could capture an IQ of the system with SDR++?

Will you please test this build?

Hi everybody. I use the program version 1.0.0+10 When I use "Quick Scan", I see groups, conversation channels, but there is no sound. If i go into the SDR settings, then the Gain and PPM adjustment is only available in the window. I use a Poco C65 phone, ver. Android 15. What's wrong? Why is there no sound? Tnx!
