Motorola Flash Programming Primer

OK, so you want to flash.. well, here are the basics on how it's supposed to work

New options can be 'flash' loaded into a FlashPort radio. The physical requirements are a SmartRIB box, PC to SRIB cable (not always the same as the PC to RIB cable, you need a programming cable which has all the necessary pins connected properly and many aftermarket cables do not but the genuine Motorola article does), and a FlashKey, which is placed between the SRIB and the programming cable.

The FlashKey is a 'dongle' which carries a program of its own in it. It communicates with the SmartRIB. The last part of the system is the Flash upgrade software. It works with the RSS, and communicates with the SmartRIB and dongle to control the usage of the Flash file. A FlashKey can only be used for as many radio upgrades (and of the same type) as were purchased. The file on disk is not useful anymore once the key's allowed number of uses is up. The software file itself remains intact, but the key is rendered useless for any further upgrades.

SmartZone trunking supposedly runs about a thousand dollars per radio upgrade, while some other options like Modat may be only 100 or so.

Now, don't confuse flash upgrading with firmware upgrading. It really does depend on what kind of radio you are dealing with. You don't always need a SmartRIB to do a firmware upgrade. For example, if you're talking about PRO radios, the HT and CDM series, you need the re-flash adaptor,HLN9742, and a regular RIB and the Programming/Flash cable, or you can delete the RIB and just use the RIB-less programming cable. A SmartRIB is not necessary for this application. The software is downloaded from Motorola's dealer services website (you have to be a dealer to log in).

You may want to check out the Flash Code Decoder if you want to see what is included in a particular flash code. The interactive version is pretty cool too.

Note that these flash decoding tools may not be completely accurate, your mileage may vary.

Getting flash upgrades is nearly impossible unless you're an original buyer of the radio from Motorola directly. Officially, they don't sell any flash upgrades to any secondary market radios. Exceptions are rare.

Well, someone finally figured out how to create your own system key files. It won't work with MTX800 series radios, but most other radios will like it. No guarantees that this will always work, but it is a start.

You need to fire up your Hex Editor and type in the following:

In the above data, vw and yz are the bytes you will create with the information below. The 'x' in the tables below denotes 'don't care'.

RSS Exploits

There appears to be another way around the System Key.. sort of.

Some time ago a neat trick was discovered in certain RSS to add/delete talk groups without the 'proper' system key. This should work for any DOS based Astro, MTSX, MCS, VisarPP type RSS.

First off, you do need a system key, but it can be any key. Second, you need to have the system you wish to edit already set-up in the radio.

An example would be a service shop who has a system key (let's say system ID '1234') for their own 5 channel StartSite system. This service shop also has some radios set-up with a legit talkgroup on the State-wide SmartZone system (let's say ID '5555') for business purposes. For simplicity, let's assume it's the only system in the radio.

Now, read the radio with regular RSS and go to 'trunking systems' (F4,F4,F3 from main menu). The '5555' system is in there as system#1. Now add another system using your legit system key, make it the same protocol (TypeI,II,IIi)and type (SmartNet, SmartZone, AMSS, etc) as the '5555'. You don't need to worry about the individual ID, connect tone or control channels.

Once created, go to 'trunking personality' (F4,F4,F4 from the main menu). In personality 1, you should see 'System/ID...1-5555' second line down on the left. Press 'enter' to move the cursor down to the '1-5555' and press either the 'up' or 'down' arrow on your keyboard. If you are using a slow 386/486 computer, you'll have to wait up to a minute, so be patient and it'll eventually change to '2-1234'. You can now go into 'F7-talkgroups' and add however many talkgroups you want. 'F-10' back out to the personality screen, bring your cursor back up to '2-1234' and hit the arrow key. Soon it'll be back to '1-5555'. Check 'F7-talkgroups' again. Yep, all your new talkgroups have remained! Go add them to your 'zone/channel assignment and have fun!
