DO NOT LOAD LATEST 204

WOTHOUT DELETING ALL CHANNELS FIRST,

AND RESETTING.

Go through Menu and delete all channels.
Then do System default through menu.
Then switch off and 40 seconds later switch on. A successful system reset will still retain the latest BIN installed (system info) but will show system time as 01/01/2006 Mountain time.

These are early days for the full EMU BINs. It took 3-4 full EMU BINs on 3500 before major problems cleared. For the 2700s (and for PUFF BINs derived from it), we started with a disastrous 201, a buggy 202 and a reasonably good 203. Now we are at 204 and more bugs might show up. The current bug is mostly related to channel list area in 299 to 201, then 203 to 301, then back from 301 to 203, and now from 301 to 204. If you are upgrading from 203 to 204, you are not likely to run into problems, but better be safe than sorry.

Install Puff_203v2 or Puff_301 and then go through the proper procedure of deleting channels and resetting before installing PUFF_204

Thanks Nalin

Infact trying to do load PUFF204 I messed up. But somehow loaeded B60, 294T, PUFF 253 and Puff 203 V2. It looks good.
Thanks so much for the help.

Nalin , Can you confirm as Someone saying following

Background: The PUFF bins are nearing the upper limits of the memory capacity of the 2500 boxes. That means that boxes that have the couple of extra bits of memory available work ok with the new 204 Bin but most converted boxes get stuck on"F" simply because there's not enough memory available to run the processes.

A working solution: The best known way of clearing all the junk for the memory is to reconvert to PUFF. Therefore, after my box got stuck of "F" a couple of times, I ran the PUFF 1.0.1 conversion once again to clear the memory as best as I could and then reloaded the new 204PUFF Bin and the box rebooted all the way to "ON".

I then loaded my saved channel list using Channel Master and am back to watching TV.

Free TVers can wait for a new improved Bin if the want but you testers out there can get cracking and try this solution on your own boxes and report back on this thread if possible.

if you're going to take it upon yourself to give instructions....make them clear.....according to your instructions....you have us loading the ukr flash fix twice....your instructions totally leave out the part about switching to the fwank 204 puff bin....

you've got people here that have limited knowledge of these recievers.....and follow these instructions to the letter....

again....if you're going to take it upon yourself to give instructions.....you need to make sure that you're precise....or you run the risk of jacking up someones' box....

i'm pretty sure you'd be pissed if someone else was responsible for jacking up yours....

just a thought.....
