Sprint, reverting to 6.1

Sorry if this is a repost, or others have asked before.

6.5 has been nothing but a headache for me, I did the cleanup after I installed it, restored my pim info and was looking forward to a better experience.

It was slower, felt buggy, and ran worse than 6.1. I talked my wife into getting a tp2 despite her concerns that it was bulky and more complex than she wanted. It came in right when the 6.5 upgrade came out and I did both phones together, and she hasn't gotten into the phone nearly as much as I did when I first got it.

I have the rainbow effect on my screen, but no tep etc so i haven't even thought about warranty stuff.

It has started to crash and lock up, yesterday the time got locked on 0:00 and didn't update after we went out to the country. today everytime I turned it on it rebooted a few times, didnt want to get off the red/orange window screen and when it did it said it was doing a hands free activation. Tonight it gave me a black screen saying it wanted to do a hard reset because it couldn't boot anymore, so I'm finally going to go back to 6.1 and see if it starts to fly right.

I've searched and found only this thread with the stock roms -

there are two for sprint, but not sure if one is 6.1 or not, I see the digits 65 in each.

Is this one -

RUU_Rhodium_W_Sprint_WWE_1.21.651.3_RS_1.96WF_NV_S PCS_1.42_0430_PRL60652_Ship.exe

The 6.1 I got last october? Am I under warranty, and if so should I try and go that route if the problems weren't 6.5 related?
