is there a way to roll back to 2.1

[tekguy09]

is there a way to roll back to 2.1. after the update, seriously considering throwing the phone away

[zrxoa1]

I feel about the same way! LOL

I have the same question. I did the update to 2.2 on my wife's and my Dinc. My phone has been running ok - battery life has been a lot worse but the extra features are worth the extra charging for me.

My wife wants to go back to 2.1. Her phone was almost fully charged last night and when she woke up this morning her phone was dead. Her battery life has been terrible since installing 2.2.

Any ideas on how to go from 2.2 to 2.1? It seems like such a stupid question after waiting impatiently to get 2.2 for the last two months.

I think there is a way to flash back I just wouldnt be the one good at explaining how , ha

Just called Verizon and asked this same question and unfortunately thru them there isnt a way to revert back to the 2.1.
This 2.2 is awful!

Hmmm, not exactly the Froyo goodness it was hyped up to be, huh?

There is a way! These are the steps I followed exactly, first one is to downgrade back to 2.1, second one is to root, root forever, update your radio, upgrade to froyo:

You don't charge your phones while you are sleeping ??

Well, glad you figured out a way! Good luck with that. I wouldn't want to go back to 2.1 where there is no flash support for sure! Now you can watch any of the videos and see all of the flash. You can even watch myspace videos anything on espn.com That feature alone is great.

Baul about your wife, the battery life on the 2.2 isn't THAT much worse. It does, on mine, not everyones, go down a little faster but it's not to an extreme it doesn't seem like. Check and see if she had something on all the time that shouldn't be or some sort of app.

Or else she loses flash which might not be important to her. If not then go for it.

But I can only imagine as we keep going most of the new apps will be tailored to run on 2.2 so she might run into issues. A few months from now pretty much every app will be designed to run with 2.2 when they build it.
