Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??


i ran the leaked pr 1.2 f/w since it was leaked, but my phone nearly died! managed to fix it, but its still not 100%

Due to my phone not wanting to work with the leaked pr1.2 anymore, I had to go back to pr 1.1.1 then install GSM/phone function from pr1.2 f/w, but some apps will not install anymore, such as....

bluezwitch
catorise
flashlight

my phone is getting very slow after 2 weeks use of 1.2 i don't try to downgrade because of the radio problem that i wont be able to use the phone for calling or texting

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

No. I had to reflash [Leaked] PR 1.2 because I set voltages that were too low for the phone to handle, but apart from that...

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

you just reinstalled 1.2 again for fixing problems?

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

Yes, because I was an idiot and set those voltages as the default

I found a fix to make phone work again after downgrading from PR 1.2 > PR 1.1.1

but there is a big risk doing this?

ok:) that was easy. but reinstalling 1.2 can also fix it?

i did a downgrade like you said. first downgrade to 1.1.1 and then only update cellular software to 1.2

Am i going to have troubles if 1.2 will come officially? or any onther problems when doing this kind of downgrade?

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

Lucky I guess, but I have zero issues with 1.2. Been running it for almost two weeks. Also running the updated transition.ini file and wowwwww...anyone who wants silky smooth UI with the lag taken out needs to play with that. Sorry about the off topic but it is just wow.

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

my phone was very laggy and that's why i downgraded. how do i install that updated transition file?

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

My sense is that the overwhelming majority of people who installed the leaked firmware are not having significant issues.

We hope that the real stuff will be available soon and don't expect problems installing it over the leaked stuff.

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

Check out this thread for the transition stuff. The 4th page of the thread there are instructions and there are various files throughout the thread you can test. I am using the updated version with no blur it makes the phone feel dramatically different:

Does the leaked PR 1.2 include all the QT stuff that is necessary for many apps in HAM?
QTlibs.

Is there a huge difference between 1.1.1 and 1.2 (leaked/not after what's said on paper)?

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

after running the pr1.2, i could not go back to old f/w

its just that much better

'nuff said

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

Yeah, but you also have a pretty hacked up device.. I've been reading all your mods for awhile now.
Plus you had it OC'd to 900mhz (was it permanently?).

I've seen many people here are having great success with 1.2. Very mixed results.. What programs could have caused your device to die?
I can't see it being completely 1.2 to blame due to the amount of success around.

Re: Anyone Had to Downgrade from leaked PR 1.2 F/W ??
 

had my n900 o/c'd @ 900mhz permanently......

after running pr1.2 @ 900, my device got very unstable after a few wks..

it was all of a sudden also. it was unusable! then i think i rebooted and it wouldnt load past the 'dots'

i eventually found it was due to a corrupt emmc..

reflashed old f/w and emmc, then pr1.2...... worked again. :)

it may have been due to me o/c always @ 900mhz with unstable pr1.2 f/w and emmc was corrupt

eMMC: Isn't that the solid state drive inside (hardware)?
Corrupt eMMC would result in a hardware failure in need of a warranty replacement.
Same as a corrupt SD/MMC Card. Some just die and can't be repaired, which is what I see as being corrupt.


If it was just software that had corrupted files in the /root somewhere, then that may very well be the end users fault.

Something may have been installed which was not designed for 1.2?
