anyone else downgrade back from 3.16?
lol i feel like i'm the only one who downgraded back to 2.17.
GPS was nice but i had to softreset my phone a couple times daily and it felt much slower than 2.17. Maybe it was just the applications i was running. However i did not have any problems on 2.17 with them. 3.16 install was very smooth i must admit, no hiccups or anything, and no my msid etc was not erased, GPS worked perfectly too. If i didnt have a sluggish phone needing to be reset every so often i would still be on 3.16 but alas i guess i will wait for the official release... |
im thinking about going back to 217 too. For some reason, I cant get rev a speeds anywhere even though it should be working. And when I try to run speakeast speed test, the upload crashes PIE now.
|
I think the reason why the rom wasn't officially released yet is cuz there are still bugs within the rom. Also rev a speed might not be activ in all areas yet.
|
Yeah, I went back to 2.17 on Saturday night. One day with the new ROM was enough for me. GPS is cool, but not at the price of sacrificing stability and usability.
|
with the exception of my PIE issues where it locks my phone forcing a reset, everything else about this rom performs better for me than any of the prior builds. yes the PIE thing is a pain for now, but i think i can wait it out at least more than a DAY to jump ship and downgrade...

Never left... welcome back from the bleeding edge ;)
I'm stoked about the new rom. Great news. The leaked early beta (let's hope its an early beta!) shows great promise. Now, let's see the real one with WM 6.1/AKU 1.0.0 on it, and we'll be golden ;) But that rom does not look like something I want to spend a lot of time making stable. |
quick question. how hard is it to downgrade back to 2.17. I have 2.17 now and am hesitant to go up in the event i cant go back down. I just use the stock 2.17 rom still locked

Well, the issues with the internet certainly were not going to fix themselves, so I was not going to wait until who-knows-when for Sprint and HTC to release an official version. Yeah, I could have lived with the PIE issues for longer than a day. But I don't need GPS...I need internet. If I knew the official version was coming out within the week, I would not have bothered to downgrade. But I am not going to put up with a device that doesn't connect to the internet properly for an unknown amount of time.
If someone else can put up with the unreliable internet connections, that is great. I cannot, however, so I didn't see any point in waiting. |

i think ill just hold off since i'm not that familiar with unlocking and resetting all that good stuff. I gotta get my phone replaced anyway since it keeps turning when i bump it in my pocket, i dont think the sprint tech would like me having this rom on there
