Thank you Cinaed for taking me to this so far, I did the tests you suggested, there is only one hackrf_info file and the hackrf_transfer works fine. But for the libhackrf.so.0.5.0 or x could not find any of that format but found the following files:
/opt/local/include/libhackrf /opt/local/lib/libhackrf.0.5.0.dylib /opt/local/lib/libhackrf.0.dylib /opt/local/lib/libhackrf.a /opt/local/lib/libhackrf.dylib /opt/local/lib/pkgconfig/hackrf.pc not sure if this Mac os because I did not created those manually but relied on macport to do that is required. I will try to take from here as it seems the libhackrf could be the issue with me regards On 4/15/17, 12:37 AM, "Cinaed Simson" <[email protected]> wrote: On 04/14/2017 03:45 AM, mohammed hamoud alkindy wrote: > Thanks for spoting this, the strange thing is that when I display the version from my mac utility port “sudo port installed hackrf” it shows me the right ver which is 2017.2.1 but I do not know how to check for the libhackrf !!!!!! as I left all this to be taken care by the pakage utitity PORT > > I don't know how port chops up the programs. Try hackrf_transfer --help If it exists it will spit out a bunch of help commands, then try hackrf_transfer -r /dev/null and see if that works. If it does, see https://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr for an explanation of the output. And make sure there's only one copy of the hackrf_info installed - use find / -name hackrf_info and see if the latest version of libhackrf is installed find / -name libhackrf.so.0.5.0 - at least that's the version I have installed building from the latest source code. It's possible the libhackrf version may be libhackrf.so.0.5.x where x is some number. Otherwise, try sudo port install gr-osmosdr +full which will take a while and then sudo port install gqrx assuming you haven't already do so - you're going to need them anyway. Otherwise, I can't help you - I don't understand the problem and I've never used a Mac. -- Cinaed > > On 4/13/17, 2:39 AM, "HackRF-dev on behalf of Cinaed Simson" <[email protected] on behalf of [email protected]> wrote: > > On 04/10/2017 11:32 AM, mohammed hamoud alkindy wrote: > > Here are some shots I get some times the error msg but I then I reset > > the hackrf > > Please don't send binary images - just copy the output text into your > email. > > You don't have the correct version of libhackrf and utilities to match > the installed firmware on the HackRF. > > The installed firmware is 2017.2.1. > > The libhackrf version is: "unknown". > > The hackrf_info version is: "unknown". > > You need to install the 2017.2.1 version of the libhackrf and utilities from > > https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf/releases > > When both the version of hackrf_info and libhackrf match the firmware > version of 2017.02.1 then it will work. > > -- Cinaed > > > > > > > > > > > > > *From: *Dominic Spill <[email protected]> > > *Date: *Monday, April 10, 2017 at 10:27 PM > > *To: *Mohammed AlKindy <[email protected]> > > *Cc: *"[email protected] >> hackrf-dev" > > <[email protected]> > > *Subject: *Re: [Hackrf-dev] not so good experience for my first SDR > > > > > > > > Do you have any ouput from it?
