Region and Flash Upgrades

Post by ZS6JPL »

I have plenty CM300 radio's that found their way to me. They are from the America's region and when I want to read or write them I get a region error code. Would re-flashing them with the Flash Tool change the region code in order for me to program them with my EMEA region RSS.

Look forward to some good replies.

You can change the regionalcode with the codeplug tool from the US Waris Lab Flashkit or use the upgradetool from the EU Waris Lab Flashkit.If you only have an old EU Waris firmware,you can modify it,so it let you change the regional code.Search for the first 01E1 value in the exe file and then look for the first 0F84 value above 01E1.Change the 0F84 into 0F85.
