Depending on which parts of PR1.1 succeeded, you may find you can't use the older firmware. Specifically, if the phone/3G firmware part updated, then the rest of PR1.1 must be used with it. But I don't see any harm in trying older firmware first, only that it might not work.
stuck with the update stating 1 sec left and waited for almost 2 hours on that until I pull the plug.

I can't go back using the older firmware? why? I don't want to use the current 51 firmware since many have experienced problem with it.

* take battery out
* insert USB cable (to boot device with charging boot reason)
* insert battery & put back cover back
* remove USB cable

The 51 update includes an updated firmware for the GSM chipset. This is incompatible with previous OS firmware releases (and they don't include the old GSM firmware, so it can't be flashed back). The result of this is that installing an OS firmware prior to 51 will leave you missing all phone functionality (you can still use WLAN, etc though).

update me with your phone. I have trouble with reflashing mine. i always get the msg below. Battery was fully charge from desktop charger. I'm using the USA version update. It's like the update wouldn't go throught. Not sure if another code or command needed to push through the update bu I check the firmware name and it's exact same I was typing on the cmd.

windows vista 32 bit and ran cmd as administrator and still no go.

That's because you've still not got the firmware file in the same directory as the flasher-3.5.exe.

Thought have to download it in the same directory?

Will move it out of the directory then and will try.

The files have to be in the same directory, but every directory listing you've posted shows no firmware file.

I just finished flashing. Thank goodness! I flashed with 51 (usa) since the update failed with firmware 51.Someone said I can't go back (the easy way) with 42 when I already initiated 51. I finally able to flashed it by renaming the filename. Someone at Nokia board helped me.

Now I have to check for 51 bugs. I'm hoping there is none. All my stuff in there are gone.
