Can't upload formware 2.32
I get message: "Wrong file type, got 36, expected 35"
I have RCC's v1
Same behaviour in both the radio and control unit
I have downloaded the file twice.

Any idea?

I got that when I selected "bootloader" rather than "application" to update.  It updated properly, though, even with the error.

Are you using the web interface? What is the name/URL of the file you are attempting to use?

36 is the bootloader's type, 35 is the main application firmware's type. So it looks like you are attempting to upgrade the main application firmware using a file which contains the bootloader.

The URl is

javascript:change_frames('update.htm','empty.htm')

I think I'm selecting application upgrade (as usual)

That file is OK, as long as you select "Application upgrade" I can't see why it should fail. Which firmware version do you have now?

I am now going to ask you a question that you might feel is stupid and unnecessary, so please don't consider me rude, but I want to rule out every possibility of errors here as this behaviour is something I haven't heard of before. Also since you get errors on both 2.30 and 2.32, both web and USB, the probability of both files being corrupt for you alone seems low:  ;)

You have extracted the bin file inside the zip file and used that file(bin) when trying to update? On the download page 2.28 was the last file using the raw bin file format, from 2.30 we put the bin file inside a zip file as zip files have crc(checksum) which assures you download a non corrupted file.
