I recently purchased a Motorola XTS 2500 from an ebay seller with tags. Radio Came WIth FPP, Flash COde is 520001-001304-7, Firmware is 9.00.28 and DSP is 15.00.05. I took the radio to a friend who is attempting to re-program it to change abc toggle switch, remove zones and is unable to modify it. He cant even modify channels, he is Using Astro 25 cps v.16. Has anyone come across this issue, any solutions?. Any Help Is Highly Appreciated

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

If you can read it and save it that means that it isn't password protected, but like XTS say's, if the radio was programmed with an Advanced System Key that was programmed for things like Write Protect Enabled then you won't be able to do anything with it without an ASK to include programming conventional fields or changing user parameters. It is a very powerful feature Motorola now has and there is no way to tell if a radio has been touched by one until you attempt to read it or program with CPS.

a little off topic but opened up my MOL account and accepted the license agreement and i can now see the software on my account, the only thing is that when I go to purchase it, it asks for purchase order no. and i have no idea where to find or how to get it, do i have to contact MOT for that?

I have a similar radio, and each channel in each zone is a unique conventional personality, al lthe way to the maximum number of channels and zones. It is pretty much impossible to do things like move a channel, or delete it.
I haven't ever had any problems editing the frequency, tone, or modes, but it seems that each zone is locked to 16 channels, and each possible zone is created and full of 16 channels.
Maybe the person trying to edit the code is just trying to do things like move or delete channels?

Because it's an FPP radio, you cannot arbitrarily move or change Zones. Also do not remove the FPP flag from a Zone unless its the last Zone. Doing so will erase all Zones after it.

I put my customer number on it and they accepted it that way, next time ill use the date makes more sense doing that
I Just Wanted there to be no zones and just all channels open but its ok how it is now. I have my 5000 the way i wanted it
