I dont like the changes.

I did the update manually yesterday and I dont like it. I am not rooted. Is it possible to go back to the previous version without rooting?

Any help will be appreciated.

I like a lot of the changes.. But not auto fitting web pages after zooming is really bothering me. I may change back too if there is not a solution.. I would also like to know how how to change back.... Sorry I don't know how too for you..

There is you have to go to Sprint ID app choose my ID then you get Ice Cream Sandwich stock launcher.

Sent from the Android Central Forum app. Thanks Android Central.

Thanks!! Love that! (I had gotten Nova Launcher so now I have to decide which way to go. Hmmm.)

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unless you root and flash a ROM, there is no going back.

That sucks.. Thanks for info.. Do you know how to auto fit web pages after zooming in like gingerbread? Or where I could make a formal complaint.. I like everything else..Thanks

You should be able to get them back if you sync Picasa Web Albums
Accounts and Sync -> Manage Accounts -> Sync Picasa Web Albums

Under "Accounts and sync", I only see options to sync all and add an account. I do not see "Manage Accounts". Am I missing it somewhere?

if I try to add it, Picasa is not one of the options.

ok, I just found it. I had to tap on my Google account, and then Picasa was one of the options under that.

Does anyone know whether there's a way to remove the Google Search bar from the top of the home screens? Having both that and the Search button at the bottom of the phone seems a bit redundant to me.

At least on Gingerbread the Google Search bar is just a widget so you can long press on it and drag it to the trash. Is this not the case in ICS? (still waiting for my OTA update :()

I just deleted the screen that the google search bar was on. It warned me that there were applications on the screen before I deleted it, but I deleted it any way.

Tried the manual update method but it wouldn't work for me. Left it sit on the screen with the exclamation mark for nearly an hour and it did nothing. Thought maybe I got a corrupt download so I downloaded it again and tried a second time but it still wouldn't work.

On my phone, the google search thing is on all the launcher pages.

You must be using the stock ICS launcher then. If you dont want the search bar, you need to use Touchwiz or another launcher. Nova and Apex are nice ICS like launchers.
