I've also had this problem with FW 1.17. Another problem I've had is that the P1 and P2 buttons will intermittently execute the function programmed for the PF3 button. No idea why

I think this is related to DMR contacts. After adding DMR contacts to radio and hitting a DMR repeater my D878UVII+ froze a couple times then required initialization. I noticed this happens while in monitor mode after displaying a contact and attempting to change my TG while info displayed. I have also noticed the same issue as @AE2WM where the P1/P2 buttons seem to execute the functions of the PF3 button.

I did find a page on Google that seems to help work around the first issue by disabling features. HERE. I hope Bridgecom Systems and Anytone can work together to rectify these problems.

The guy who maintained the page linked in @Geofferey's post above, along with a lot of other info about Anytone's DMR radios, is sadly now a SK.

Here is the current version of that link: Anytone 868 / 878 Techmods
