[Tuya-Convert](https://github.com/ct-Open-Source/tuya-convert) is the most successful method of flashing Tuya modules without opening the device and soldering.
Tuya-Convert comes with `sonoff-basic.bin` and [installs it by default](https://github.com/ct-Open-Source/tuya-convert#flash-third-party-firmware). That version is very limited and doesn't support all of the features required for normal use and it is necessary to immediately upgrade the firmware after completing the Tuya-Convert process.
**We recommend the [`sonoff-wifiman.bin`](http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/sonoff-wifiman.bin) build.** This version supports nearly all Tuya devices and is small enough to use as the third-party binary during the conversion. Naturally, you can use it for all future upgrades of the firmware as well.
**We recommend the [`sonoff-wifiman.bin`](http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/sonoff-wifiman.bin) build** which is small enough to use as the third-party binary during the conversion. It includes nearly all Tasmota features required for normal operation while removing superfluous I2C sensors, IR and RF support for size. It has pre set [`WifiConfig`](commands#wificonfig)`= 2` so the device will revert to [Wi-Fi Manager mode](https://github.com/tzapu/WiFiManager/blob/master/README.md#how-it-works) if it cannot connect to the configured Wi-Fi network. Naturally you can upgrade to any other build of the firmware if needed.
**To ensure Tasmota runs reliably execute the command [`reset 5`](commands#reset) after Tuya-Convert is finished and Tasmota is up and running.** Doing this removes fragments of the original firmware left in flash which can create issues in the future. After all that is done you can proceed with the needed [configuration](initial-configuration) of your device.
