@ JRush311 Today! hahahha .. works great now .... same for BT fix which I can only guess was included in "various other under the hood fixes" as it wasn't listed specifically. All my BT stuff works with no tones before a call now. Wooo hooo!

I am also loving not hearing encrypted channels!

Looking for some help here before I turn to Unication. I installed the newest PPS last week I think and it opened fine besides not allowing my previous program to be used. Now, no matter what I do, the program will not open.

I have removed all previous iterations, verified the program folder is gone, ran the installer as admin, started the program as admin and still will not start.

I have also tried running it in compatibility mode and also fails to open.

Any ideas?

Uninstall and reinstall. I had the same issue. Make sure you search for remnants in your C: drive under G series.

 

[Fireguy15]

I have done this multiple times with restarts in between. The only remnants are the install packages.

Some have reported success with Revo Uninstaller in this situation.

Some have reported success with Revo Uninstaller in this situation.

Will hunt it down and give it a try, thanks!

 

[Fireguy15]

Used Revo a few times including a restart and still had no luck. Changed the install directory away from the default C:Unication to the ProgramFile (x86) and it came back to life!

Thanks for the help!

 

[Fireguy15]

and....... when I shut it down and went to open again, it doesn't work.........

Used the contact form on Unications page, and now the waiting game begins.

 

[APX8000]

I felt your pain. Like I said, besides looking for C: Unication you have to search for C: G Series PPS and make it all go away if you haven’t. Every last file. It’s the only way I got it to work. Unication was no help FYI.

Any idea when firmware 1.3 will be released with a fix for the echo that was introduced with 1.2 ?

 

[IAmSixNine]

Refresh my memory, what echo was introduced in V1.20?

Anyone out there using a G4/G5 with firmware 1.2 for a feed here? Echo in transmissions.

Hi all.. I've been using two G4's for two of my feeds here and all has been well up until the newest firmware (1.2). I had no problems installing the firmware but now I get an echo in the very beginning of each new transmission. Its kind of faint but you'll here the first couple words, then...

Like a slight hissing when itreceives, especially noticeable at lower volumes. I believe that's what he might be saying.

I had a G4 for a short time in March of 2018. At that time in Michigan the firmware would drop signal/transmissions randomly which I started a thread about. At the time I had to go back to R11P to make it work. My questions is, how many releases have there been since that time? Anyone in Michigan know if the issue was resolved with the Michigan P25 phase 1 system and dropouts? I am thinking of getting another G4 if it works properly now. Basically the G4 would lose the signal for a few transmissions and then come back to life, while my scaner was receiving the missed transmission. Thanks for the info.

I had a similar issue on the Charlotte UASI system, but only on patched talkgroups. As soon as a the tx stopped the radio would lose signal for a few seconds, and then resume. No idea why it was only affecting patched talkgroups, but it was resolved for me when I sent the radio back for the Ph2 upgrade, which now isn't necessary. I'm running 1.2 and no issues.

I am running v1.2 on my G4, and routinely lose a few seconds of audio during transmissions. (Usually just enough to miss the address/location of the incident being dispatched.)
