Can downgrading (from 18538 to 18533) cause any problem ?

Hi
I am really very unsatisfied with 18538 ..
Device hangs-up, sound disappers, theme changes but wallpaper remains same.... bla bla
Can anyone suggest me which ROM should I use ??
and is there any problem that I should be careful about while downgrading?
Regards,
Hassan
1. what roms you try ? links plizzz
2 .. Did you try my collection of files ( 1.00 for g3-g4 ... 1.01 for g3 unis)
I don’t know how good I am suggesting things to people, but I guess I can give it a try. You can try “ThingOnASpring” new version and that will be version 3.2 or you can wait for “Beasty & Leo” new ROM. Rumors going around that the new version is going to change the way we see our universal. So there is a big hype about their new ROM.

First of all, thanks for the reply!
Actually I've recently learnt to upgrade, so about 3 weeks ago I used:
'htc_uni_wm5_2[1].041_tmob_unbranded'
then about 2 weeks ago I found:
http://vidmes.com/Uni/Kitchens/ranju...1933_18533.rar
(this one really made me realize that I am using '520mhz' device)
Then few days ago I found another update: (which I am still using and suffering from)
http://vidmes.com/Uni/ROMs/Jwrightmc...2010_11500.zip
There was so much mentioned about this ROM on the forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=352203
This makes my device 'ONLY' look great but performance has declined, significantly:
wm6 professional 5.2.1938 (build 18538.0.7.0)
Rom ver: 2.12.08, dated: 12/15/07
extrom ver: 2.12.010 wwe, protocol: 42.54.p8, radio ver: 1.18
(I think this makes my device G3 ! Right ?)
So, Please share ur experiacne and advice me what to do next.
Thanks once again!

Dear Faraz.Riaz,
Thanks alot for ur concern in my problem!
I read about 'thingonaspring' but I got confused when I read this warning:
'Before flashing ANY 5.2.19xx-based ROM your phone should be fully unlocked and SuperCID, otherwise it may lock up or crash randomly'
I wasn't able to understand what actually 'full unlocked and SuperCID' meant.. I was also confused that how to make my device superCID.
If you have any knowledge about it... please do let me know!
and u r rite about 'Beasty & Leo' ROM, even I've read same things about it so let's hope for the best !
I'm really inspired by the work and cooperation of these Master Minds here, working & always helping dumies like me
I know I have to be always right part of being who I am. Seriously, I did have a chance to see “beasty & leo” new ROM up close and I am really impressed. You can take my word for it I don’t get inspired by too many things. Now don’t be too hard on yourself, no one here thinks you are a dummy. Check you PM (private Message).

[Q] Plz help I'm new to android....

I'm sorry if i'm reposting the same thing and i do know that a lot of ppl are getting yelled at for this but I'm really ignorant about this android operating system... i don't know what it is... i don't know what rooting is... or whats the difference between froyo and eclair... Like I've mentioned earlier i don't know anything about this except for the fact that i just bought a new Samsung galaxy S captivate... If anyone can help plz do cause i am lost to no end... Thank you very much...
Rooting gives you administrative control over your phone and allows you to flash custom versions of Android. It basically allows you to have much more control over what you can do on your phone. Froyo, Eclair, etc are the names given to different versions of Android. Eclair is 2.1, Froyo 2.2, and Gingerbread 2.3.
Ohhh... well i think i i root my phone and is currently running eclair but i am trying to run froyo on it... how can i get there.... i'v dont some research on this forum and YouTube lol but the links they give me all came back as dead links... and installing froyo with cognitive is very confusing because the package that i have to install is a lot more than the elair... am i stating this correctly or am i just lost period... LOl thank you for your reply..
stay at version 2.1 eclair and get darkys v9.0.2 the best by far, its a custom rom and is amazingly fast. its easier todo if your on 2.1. so uprgrade to darkys rom. type in darkys rom. and itt has full instructions for noobs
i think the main reason for me to update is because i want to run skype... other then that i love eclair... i don't mind it at all... but for some reason skype only works on 2.2 firmware...
Im new to android too ... I just got my htc legend. The problem is i believe its under "vodafone" branding because everytime i switch my phone on the vodafone logo shows up. So the first i want to do is to remove this ... Can you please help me put here ?
hahha ive just sent my back to the guy i bought it off as mine was unlocked but vodafone branded. i hate it wen they do this. sometimes they even put vodafone stickers on the fone, its so annoying. am not entirerly sure to be fair. maybe reflash the phone . not sure mate
^ Oh man.... i completely new to this ! How can i tell if my phone is in unlocked condition or not ?
And how do i reflash it?
'you're in the right place, give it a couple of weeks and in no time you will be rooting ROMing and modifying like a pro. take it from me who knew nothing about the Android OS and now I'm up there.

I read somewhere in the rules for xda, you should search before posting question
Anyhow, this is a starting point. I don't have the Captivate but I am sure there are many more topics about your phone.

I believe you should change the thread subject, as it's confusing. Several folks might get a hope then instantly get depressed like my case.

[MOD] Alcatel OT-890 upgrade

Because no one seems to do it I was forced to work by myself and I managed to upgrade the phone to Android 2.2.
I wrote detail article with direct link downloads for the ROM file and the flasher. They are direct downloads no ads or such.
I also have all Firmwares for all Alcatel phones, but they are about 11Gb so I'll upload them in the next few days.
the tutorial is little big, but I was trying to be more precise so everyone can understand me.
Thanks.

Thanks for the info, a guy was asking to me if he could update his phone to 2.2 and he will be pleased of hear: yes you can! =D
What about performance of 2.2 on this phone, is it good. Do you need OC? Is all working like on the original 2.1 rom?
Thanks again!

The performance is BETTER then the stock ROM because a lot of unnecessary apps provided by alcatel are deleted and left only the important one. I made this upgrade for mu sister's phone and I can say it is running with no problem. Everything works, GPS, WiFi, GPRS. All is normal.
I am happy because it is at least 2.2. Android 2.1 is prehistoric, there is even no Google Play store upgrade for it.
Need complete ROM files
Can someone upload the complete ROM and share the link? I want to make a similar ROM for Spice MI 270 based on MT6516. My phone has android 2.2 but does not support adb currently.
Please upload system.bin, boot.img, recovery.img and others if possible.
Thanks!
Holy Batman it's a very old thread I know!!
Would someone be kind enough to upload the tutorial and the files. I would be grateful...
Thank you.

Hi, I just bought Alcatel 890d a couple of weeks ago. It comes with Android 2.2 out of the box. Is it possible to upgrade it to the newer Android version? Also, could you please give me the TWRP/CWM img file for this phone that I can flash using Flashify? Please. I really need it so bad.
