The incremental updates, .205 then .207 improve free RAM

Is 207 update rolling? I thought that was just for some cariers. In Romania for example is not rolling on vodafone carier.

It isn't released in all countries, should hope it will be but who knows. It isn't carrier specific, there are generic/unbranded releases. I used Flashtool to install it as it's not available in UK (yet?).

After a few days of use I'm finding that free RAM is around 100Mb more (vs .205) and it does not get so hot, so consequently battery life is improved.

If you don't want to lose your apps and data see my earlier post titled '12.1.A.1.207 - New Firmware'

Hope I have understood - if PC Companion says 207 is available then just use that as it's going to be the safest option to get the latest firmware. It will download the full firmware of around 800Mb. If the phone shows 205 is available then that's likely to be an OTA update of just a few Mb but not the latest version.

For ftf files I think you can use c5303 firmware on a c5302 phone - it's just the basebands that are different and that will be decided by the phone (if that's bad information and someone knows different please correct me)
