MD-380 Update
« on: January 13, 2019, 03:01:59 pm »
Hey All
I have a MD-380 that I purchased probably 5-6 years ago.  It's currently running firmware version 3.032 and cp 1.32
It works great and i would like to make it my hotspot radio.

I believe i read that by installing ty-toolz i can increase the number of contacts etc.
So in order to install ty-toolz it looks like i have to create a virtual machine on my windows computer and follow the setup pdf. Is this correct?
Which CP do i need to install once i've updated it with ty-toolz?
Also does anyone have a basic md-380 code plug for the latest version with all the TGIF talkgroups?

Thank you

Ryan NC4RA

Hi Ryan

good news the older version of MD380 is awesome on hotspots and TGIF  ;D
but sounds like you are reading old information on loading ty toolz

ty has a windows program that will load ty toolz, and DMR IDs in the 380 on his site
https://kg5rki.com/new2/tymd380.html

get
Tytera Flash Tool v1.08c_BETA (MD380/MD390) - (All in one utility to update userDB and firmware)

since yours is pretty old... I would update to latest TYT firmware and CP first! then the TY Toolz
