  1. I tried this on my BF-F8+, holding for 5 sec and the display did not change. Maybe my firmware version does not support this? Firmware version shows BFB297 when I power up holding the 3 key.

  2. Thanks for the comment. Firmware version shows BFB297 on my radio too. When I hold down the '0' key, the battery display appears after about 2 seconds and remains on screen for about 1 second.
