Dumping k5 v2.01.32 firmware

[Richard Antony Burton]

I have a UV K5 (8) with firmware version 2.01.32 which doesn't appear to be in your collection. I'll happily dump it, but can't find any instructions on how to do that...

Hello, to dump firmware you have to be comfortable with opening the device and access these pins:

Then you have to use debugging tools compatible with OpenOCD, For example raspberry pi pico with flashed Free-DAP or ST-Link etc. Then use command and config form this directory to run openocd. Then if there are no errors till this time you write in openocd console command:

dump_image uv_backup.bin 0 0x1FFFF

If you will have any troubles during process please let us know here. This will be perfect occasion to finally write tutorial for that 😉

This would be needed to have an updated base firmware file for the mods, correct?
