[Guest Mtman1]

Yeah, the b888 changes the partition sizes (as said about 300 times now :) ) and is impossible to reverse

Ok flip, im gone now would vodafone accept it if I retured it.

Is there no way of going back

Check this thread, it's the nearest solution so far:

Its a bootloader problem. From B888 and up the bootloader changed. When upgrading if the new bootloader is older than the current the upgrade fails.

The only solution to return to vodafone is to flash somekind of file that makes the phone stuck in the boot screen, this way they cant verify the version.

that's because pauls B888 installs via cwm and doesn't alter things like the official update.app,so u can downgrade.if like me u used the official, u couldn't downgrade below B888.
