Hello. I have bought a Retevis RT3S (with GPS) recently. I used TYteraFlashTook 1.08c to flash GPS firmware. My radio seems now bricked and when I power on led green and red blinks and display do not show image. I tryed to flash using "downloads/MDUV380/Firmware/5ed1bcc0433f ... ed6ab7e7f/" but none happens. It say Done but none changes. Can someone help me? What can I try to do?

You have not "bricked" the radio, all you have done is written invalid data, into the radio

You must follow the installation instructions and install the firmware using the OpenGD77 CPS

Where did you read that you use other tools than the CPS to install the firmware??

Now with FirmwareDownloadV3.04\DMR Firmware DownLoad v3.04_En I was able to restore successfully RT3S(GPS-REC)-S18.16.bin
But how apply downloads/MDUV380/Firmware/5ed1bcc0433f ... ed6ab7e7f/ ?
TyteraFlashTool.exe fails.

Read the Howto and docs about firmware flashing, and stop mentioning unknown tools.


Thanks.
