Reflash 2.1 6941 (or later beta) with as little modification as possible

[Guest RichB93]

Hi everyone. Not terribly impressed with the latest update from O2. (Stupid mobile internet only for market bug, and lagging on screens with fading graphics etc) How would I downgrade to an earlier ROM? Was thinking 6941 as that was good although maybe a later ROM if you've had positive experiences with it. I presume I cannot do it with the built in software flasher? Sorry if it's been asked before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks,

Rich

Im on 6941 and i still get the odd crash and stall etc, more than any other phone ive used, but still less than the other stock+custom roms ive used on the streak.

tbh I Would flash pauls custom (using his kitchen) I just flashed one (with bare minimum extra crap) and it flies along.. No issues so far (touch wood etc) it is much much more responsive than any of the betas..

great thing about using that is all your apps etc are left in place.

It'd be nice but I'm not paying £9.99 to fix a problem that shouldn't have been there in the first place. I'd rather revert to an earlier beta :

EDIT: It sounds harsh I know, and I appreciate why it costs as it takes time to do stuff like this, but I don't have the cash atm to do it.

What options did you 'de-tick'?

I deticked a few options with the 1.6 MCR a while ago and got none stop process errors :P

and you say it keeps all your settings? do i need to already have koshes recovery on for that?

I unticked most of them.. Just left caculator, maps, the scripts & yobtoob

figure I don't use the outlook, and the others annoy me.. I can install the others I rarely use from market (voice search seems to want to duplicate if you upgrade it) when I need them if I do.

wonder if some of the issues people are having is to do with the way they d/l it

this is more responsive than the betas.. at least for me it is

and I got a quadrant score of 816 with it
