How do I fix my BAOFENG UV-5R Radio?

My UV-5R Baofeng HAM Radio skips from channel 0 to channel 127 and doesen't go from any channels in between so I want to make it to where I can go through every channel but instead I am only able to get two channels on here channel 0 and channel 127. I need desperate help.

Try to do a Hard reset on the unit and then reload your freq list from Chirp. It happened to my UV-5R-v2 Baofeng. It worked fine after that.

SOURCE: My baofeng uv-5r will not transmit any solutions?

Don't know what software you used but try looking up a program called Chirp on the internet and use it to progran the radio. The program gets updated a lot. It has worked well for a large group of us. Is the battery fully charged?

My husband & I both have baofeng uv-5r plus, is there any way we can talk to each other on them like walkie talkies?

baofeng ARE walkie talkies. Perhaps you mean directly, radio to radio. There are so may settings, they are confusing. Imported, esp. chinese radios have poor documentation. It is a Ham radio. They are cheap and they have horrible manuals.
Look for DIR or direct. Try this online manual being made by baofeng folks like you. http://radiodoc.github.io/

Baofeng uv-5r will not transmit

Sounds like you have the transmit lockout set. this radio is a bit of a pain to program, but is well worth the effort. your best bet is save your settings (backup) and do a full factory reset, and start over, making sure you did not lock out the transmit on any channel or VFO...
