The curent firmware for the 536hp is
1.28.17 (06/12/2024)
So, yes. Your firmware is very old. Version 1.11.31 was released on 7/7/2017. Regarding the NXDN upgrade: Support for NXDN was added to the 536hp in version 1.14.00 (3/26/2018). You will need to update your firmware to enable NXDN.

can't i just update the firmware throug sentinel ?
oh and i bought the 996 squelch and volume buttons from uniden and they fit like a glove
Yes. You update the 536hp firmware using sentinel
And first, update to the latest version of Sentinel!
when i try to upgrade to dmr it tells me the SUM is not correct but i enter the sum that is in the settings under firmware. SN37526068003145 SUM=125, M-Ver=2 that is what i says under firmware verions
what am i missing here?
what am i missing here?
Most likely the serial number is not being entered correctly
i entered it correctly on the back of the scanner... then i double checked the SN number in the settingts
here i entered that exactly like that

try both: 37526068003145 and 375z68003145 (replace 260 with Z)
Have a read here: SDS100/SDS200: - ESN CHECKSUM

Hexadecimal numbers use the numbers 0 thru 9 and the letters A thru F. The number 8 and the letter B are often confused. The scanner serial number on the back of the scanner and the electronic serial number shown on the scanner menu are different. If you are trying to enter the serial number or electronic serial number on the my.uniden site, the first several characters are already entered. If you are upgrading to DMR in the scanner, you need to enter the key emailed to you by Uniden,
I wouldn't have posted my whole S/N and SUM as a mean person could buy the upgrades and prevent you from getting them...and then offer them to you at a higher price.
i did try that
it says this
The Checksum you entered is not valid. Please recheck your input to ensure that you have entered the 3 digits of the SUM value correctly.
Please go back by clicking your back button.
and if i use 260 instead of Z it won't let me enter the whole serial number

I just tried with the info you supplied and had no issues.
Under S/N be sure you are entering 26068003145 (without the 375).

Edit... nevermind i got it i didn't know i had to leave about the first 4 numbers of the SN why is that
How much are you going to re-sell the upgrade key for?
$100
