Glad to hear that things are going well now. Sometimes these things are data dependent and timing can play a role as well.
It is counterintuitive, but success with one type of transfer does not always imply success in all types. Data transfer testing can be very diffficult. We have some algorithmic plans that may improve this over time, but if the data is getting scrambled we're doing well to just reliably detect it!
