Help needed for downgrade to 20161011

Thu Dec 08, 2016 11:59 am

After that many problems with Firmware 20161025* and no information from BV when this will be fixed I like to go back to 20161011.
Does anyone know if it is possible by a local file update without loosing any data?

* Problems:
  • Half battery runtime
  • WiFi stays on "hidden" when turned off
  • big VOLTE1-Icon in status bar
  • Change from WiFi to 4G don't work
  • potentially unsafe FOTA application
  • New mac address
  • ...

In the ROM board, you can find all previous roms, but please know downgrade to the previous ones, you need to do it on PC with flash tools.
If you are not expert at this, please don't try, wrong flashing operation may cause a bricked phone.

But when I use the flash tool I will loose all apps and settings, right?

I already tried going back to 20161011 over a local update file before. The FW Version shows 20161011 again but all issues are still there.

You can also back up your data before flashing, but please know, if you are not expert at this, don't try. Otherwise, your phone may be damaged by
a wrong operation. You can wait for the android, we will release it very soon. We are in the process for last bug fixing.

Hi Admin, where can you find this? I've requested in an earlier post that a sticky post wit all the ROM links and release notes would be handy.
I'm happy to make one for you but my posts seem to disappear.

Regards

Thank you for your feedback. I will wait for the Android 7 Update then. I hope it will not contain the issues of FW 20161025 mentioned above. ;)
