Tested the puff 205 on converted FLU and still freezing. First loaded the Ukr_-PUFF-ConversionFlashFix.bin then the new 205 but same result. Think we will have to wait for a proper fix.....

You're right. In fact, I get better TV, lesser freezing, with the 204PUFF Bin. Strange.

I think Ukronic jumped the gun.
The same old conflict of memory problem bugs the 205 at load time. if not, then in the next phase, there is memory conflict in the channel list area.
I suggest, all wait for the Fwak7 version of 205 and/or a Tronic direct load. Note that the genuine 2700s using the BL BIN are not (yet) reporting any freezing.

The 205 PUFFs work great.

1 If it's getting stuck on "F" use the UKR-puff-conversionflashfix.

2 If channels are freezing, delete all channels and rescan.

PUFF-205 does have some freezing but is, on the whole, a better version.

Reloading the flashfix will not make any difference. Delete channels, software reset, hardware reset, new Bin, software reset, hardware reset, user setup, antenna setup, one sat blind scan, hardware reset, other sats blind scan.

FlashFix is needed only if your receiver does not take the 205PUFF Bin and gets stuck on a Frozen "F".

If your receiver loads the Bin without getting stuck, do a Factory Reset after loading the Bin, reenter your antenna settings and run a Blind Scan.

LOL. Nalin beat me to the punch. Follow the steps he has laid out and you should be fine.

I just wanted to confirm what abby and nalin say, they are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT AND UP TO THE POINT. You MUST delete all exsisting channels, and MUST rescan and not use a saved channel list otherwise it will keep freezing. The stuck F is only solved by using the 101 Ukronic boot loader. Remember to hard reset after each satellite scan or bin load.

The Fwank7 205 came out yesterday not that long after the other bins. It's on Ftatalk.

I understand there is very minimal freezing with that bin. At least, that was the status as of yesterday and until around 3:00 in the morning.

Forgot to add, for those that uploaded the boot and bin for the 204 only need to load 205 just as before. Meaning, just upload the bin as you did prior to 204 (203 etc.) and enjoy. You don't need to do anything other than load the new bin.
