### About Encryption Key

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Custom Firmware will not find the Encryption Key. It is something that needs to be obtained in other ways.**

### Download

The last executable version for Windows you can download [HERE](https://github.com/x27/CFT/releases/latest), placed in the file **CFT.zip**

### Supported scanner modes

* Direct freq entry - confirmed
* Custom Search - confirmed
* Close Call - confirmed
* Quick Search - confirmed
* Memory Scan as a Conventional - confirmed
* Memory Scan as a Digital - confirmed

### Supported trunking modes DMR

* Conventional repeater (Hytera/Motorola) - confirmed
* CAP+ - confirmed
* Connect+ - confirmed
* DMR Tier III (Motorola CapMax/Hytera/other ETSI compatible) - confirmed

### Prerequisites

Requires an installed paid [DMR upgrade](https://info.uniden.com/twiki/bin/view/UnidenMan4/DigitalMobileRadioUpgrade) on the scanner for Motorola BP, Motorola EP or Hytera BP.

Requires an installed paid [NXDN upgrade](https://info.uniden.com/twiki/bin/view/UnidenMan4/DigitalMobileRadioUpgrade) on the scanner for NXDN Scrambler.

Requires an installed Custom Firmware (CF) on your scanner.

OS: Windows XP or higher with installed .Net Framework 2.0

### Debug Logs

If you have any problems with signal decryption (or some other problem with my firmware ) and can't figure it out, you need to create debug files and send it to my email.

Separate debug files for each problem separately.

How to create the debug logs:
* Enable logging.
   - Enable logging by pressing the side Menu button > Settings > Set Debug Log Mode > SD Card (File). Select by pressing on the Volume button.
* Include multiple calls together with pauses.
* Disable logging.
   - Deactivate debug logging via the scanner menu Settings > Set Debug Logs Mode > Off. 
* Send Email with problem's description and attached logs.
   - Debug logs can be found on the scanner SD Card in the /BCDx36HP/debug/ directory.

[More about Debug Logs](DEBUG.md)

### Virus/Trojan false warning

Some Windows users are triggered by the built-in antivirus when working with the file "alice.cft". This warning is false, which you can verify by checking this file with [VirusTotal](https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload), an online service that combines a huge number of antivirus checks.

### Demo Limitations

* Session time limit - **2 minutes** of decrypted voice of any protocols (then turn Off and On device, up to a total of **2 hours**)
* Key limit - **5 pcs**

If you are not satisfied with the limitations of the demo mode, you can purchase unlock keys for the protocol you need. Each unlock key is unique per the Scanner's ESN.

### Donation / Payments

If your scanner model is not supported, but you want to enjoy these features, or you just want to support the project, you are more than welcome to donate or purchase unlock keys.
But before you do, write me an e-mail.

Licenses for unlocking **Hytera BP**, **Hytera EP**, **Motorola BP**, **Motorola EP**, **NXDN Scrambler**, **P25 ADP**, **P25 DES**, **DMR AES**, **P25 AES256** keys are currently available.
