I don't think it's okay if you get involved when Billy has already offered.

Have you ever seen Coopervid, who also releases the firmware for free, interfere if Billy is already active? Or vice versa? One user asks, one of them reacts and is good. From my point of view, it's disrespectful to knock out Billy here.

Please someone from the team whistle me back if I should be wrong with my view.

Nothing wrong with giving people a choice. Billy has his product for people who want something like that. Haven't used it so I can't comment on it. The free version works well for me, and there is a lot of confusion because the information on what your options are is not very clear. Maybe I should write a new guide laying it out.

Hi everybody,

I just have a question. Does the flasher give the chance to save the original firmware?

Thanks.
