I bought three M0t0r0la MTM5400 radios a few weeks ago (all radios are same band, 380-430MHz).
Unfortunately, when they arrived, i got an unpleasant surprise:
one radio was indeed an MTM5400, the others were MTM5200.

Can anyone help me how to turn MTM5200 into MTM5400?
The MTM5400 can operate as DMO repeater, the MTM5200 does not have such a mode.

Bro, this would need flashing Firmware of MTM5400 to MTM5200 and also upload correct codeplug. Not something that can original software allow.

When you say "Full Flash" do you mean you have managed to read from MTM5400 full firmware?

I will convert MTM5200 radio to MTM5400 model.

I hope I will be successful

My problem is:
The MTM5200 has a transmitter power of 5 Watts originally, the MTM5400 has 10 Watts - same hardware? RF-finals too?

That will not do it, When I said full firmware read from radio means, all read from radio!! Boot + Firmware + Codeplug, all in one *.bin file

Problem solved successful:

2 MTM5200 radios became MTM5400.
The failed MTM5400 has also regained its factory parameters.
