Bootscreen Logo not showing from UVMOD on Quansheng UV-K5(8) despite uploaded picture

You have integrated a logo or image with UVMOD, but after flashing, no logo is displayed on the Quansheng UV-K5(8) when it is switched on. Then simply use these troubleshooting steps.

Make sure that the “Custom bootscreen” checkbox was really checked!

First of all, make sure that you have really checked the “Custom bootscreen” box. This is often overlooked. Simply setting a checkmark to select a logo is not enough, the higher-level checkmark must also be set.

Deactivate PONMSG

If a power-on message (PONMSG) is set, this wins over the boot screen graphic uploaded with the firmware.

Is it possible that you have already configured the radio with the CHIRP software? If so, this is the problem. In the Chirp configuration file, there are probably entries in the “Settings” tab under “Basic Settings” in the “Logo String 1” and “Logo String 2” fields.

Delete these fields and reload the configuration onto the radio using CHIRP.
The UVMOD graphic integrated via flashing should now be displayed when the radio is started.
