I bought T8SG V2 Plus yesterday and failed to update its firmware. It seems memory / storage of V2 Plus has been destroyed by updating firmware. My friend who already had V2 plus bought another one recently and having same problem only with new one. He found there's a difference between new and old hardware that a chip on board which assumed as memory chip. This is my guess but Jumper changed the hardware of memory chip and also change the way of handling memory in their recent firmware which is incompatible with current nightly builds. Will it able to be fixed near future ?

BTW, destroyed file system can be fixed with backup files and DFU but little tricky in order to make it recognizable by Windows.

Can you try modded nightly build T8SG V2 Plus firmware with flash memory auto detection?

File deleted, now see nightly builds...

Hello everyone!!!

I had the same issue with a t8sg v2 plus buyed from aliexpress end of december.
Work ok on arrival but weird range issue (but it's an other story...) so decided to flash with the lastest nightly build...
Unfortunately the TX doesn't work after attempt to update...
test many many thing even change the flash chip, but always the same result, tx start on USB mode and memory is not recognised on windows explorer, but seen as RAW on disk management and unable to format it!
Yesterday I see Tonsuke post on facebook T8SG group where he speak of the same problem.
Ask him how he solve it... He said he flash with stock firmware (that I don't have cause don't make a backup...) he send it to me, so flashed it, and after many try I was able to format the memory (FAT 4096 and not fast format) but the memory didn't appear in windows explorer and can't send library into...
I just had to add a path and letter on disk management and AT LEAST!!! it appear on Windows explore!!!
After that I decided to flash with vlad_vy firmware, copy library and boot for the first time in a week!!! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
SO.... A big thanks to vlad and Tonsuke for giving me a bit of hope and the solution!!!

Thanks !
Just briefly test my radio and note that now max power output is 100mw instead of 150mw.
Is your firmware ?

I think both DeviationUpload and Dfuse tool also need to be updated hence it seems the tools handle memory directory. Actually. I can't format file system by DeviationUpload tool properly.
