My SN is CXG110xx so this should be the right one. But I am hoping for some more info about this firmware update. I downloaded the zip file but there is no release note in it, nor could I find any info about it from xiegu.eu (they have no X108G files at all!), or anywhere else. (I bought mine from CSI in California years ago.)

Hope it has some good improvements and I will update mine. If it's very minor then I won't bother.

Thanks for the info about this new update. I am wondering why Xiegu does not publish this publicly? They are indeed a little strange.

I suppose they are bug fixes within the initial software, in rare cases what they saw was the antenna analyzer, but only if the equipment did not have it installed, which today is unlikely, it was only in the first units manufactured for that purpose, 2015 I guess.

I had the original software, from 2016 and when I uploaded it, it appeared with a date of 2017, it corrected a strange noise when I pressed the PTT but over time it appeared again, it must be a hardware problem or something in the microphone.

Hello. I have installed this version X108G_OLED_FW_V2.00.1_build011(Last version sent to me from Xiegu 2022-08-14) in my radio, labeled CXG10--- and it did not work, the equipment does not turn on so I went back to the version X108G_OLED_FW_V2.00.1 _build006(26M)

Greetings

Did you end up with a bricked X108G? Was it just a matter of loading the known good version - same process?

I bought a bricked CS108G+ with serial CS 100xx I've tried several version of firmware. Black screen less when I start with pushed knob and display info for upload firmware. Not sure what is a good firmware version and where I find it or there is an issue too.

Hey Guys,
I just found a guy who selling original OLED replacement for Xiegu X-108G_OLED on Ali.
I wonder if the reason for the dimming of the brightness is that the life of the OLED has expired.
Can replacing it with a new OLED solve the problem?
Many people on the Internet said that the OLED dimming problem was eventually solved by replacing the OLED.
I wonder who would be willing to try it?

Hello, I replaced it with this spare part, it has a slightly longer strap which helps to be able to plug it into the socket, the excess strap can only be folded behind the screen without problems.

Look at this post made by ON5FM, there is a PDF file with information that can guide you, that's what I did.

Thank you very much for your reply.
But after comparison, I found that the alternative I saw yesterday was cheaper and specified a certain product type.
So, I decided to give it a try in the hope that my problem can be effectively solved.

With great pleasure.

There are indeed other options, you just have to look a little deeper and you will undoubtedly find what you need, it is a great advantage to have the spare parts on hand. Many successes!
