Install OS5 on you pc and remove OS6. Delete vendor.xnl and run apploader.

Why do u hate it?

It has WiFi that actually works now, it has a better browser and better user interface. And better battery life as well

Did you not find it a challenge to make the OS6 leaks work for you? I did, and enjoyed it thoroughly. It wasn't plug 'n play, by any means, and certainly not for everybody.

No man, it blows OS 5 out of the water even in its early stages.

Witgh OS 5, everytime I connect to WiFi, the WiFi icon wouls remain grey so I can never actually use the connection. Using the same settings , with OS 6, the wifi icon turns white right away.

Battery life has improved in my case

The user interface looks much better with nice fade-in transactions.

The browser is much better.

The ONLY glitch is the cursor disappears in a BBM chat message, but there is a wprk around that which is by holding the shift button then scolling up or down.

I am surprised how u think its so bad when I mentioned all of the above

I certainly didn't say anything about finding it bad. I've been where you live, ml. I suggest you wear a hat. Challenges are not bad. They are simply there to be overcome.

to all,

thank you for your replies.
the thing is I am impressed with the interface of the phone but the thing im irritatd is that the phone is slow! For example sometimes when i go to check someoes picture on BBM, the phone takes forever.

Another example when i keep holding the bb key for the screen that pops out , sometimes it just stays there.

the problem ppl say that the 9700 has a lesser ram and thats why theres the problem

does anyone have solution for my problem? i just want the phone to work faster like it did on the OS5.

Thanks.

Jesus ML, learn to read bro...

Also just because it works for you, don't mean it will for everyone.

Also, WiFi worked fine on my 9700 when i had OS5 running.

BlackBerry Swiss Army Knife

Download and Install from the link above, download the OS 5 device software and install that, uninstall the OS 6 device software. Delete the vendor.xml file, away you go.

Oh God thank you. I am so tired of this guy stating HIS experience as if it is
the way it should be for every damn body. It is massively annoying.

I agree, experiences differ, strange though when d@mn near everything is the same, I've seen it with every build so far. I'm one of the lucky ones, I've had very minimal issues with OS6, the most annoying glitch I have is if I hit the back key to go back from a pic, song, FB message or anything, it will act like I've hit it twice and go back to the homescreen.

Each person is entitled to their OWN opinion and don't need other people telling them what OS they should/shouldn't Run!

The OP wants to roll back. I seem to recall you going off the handle last night when someone didn't help you with a question... even going so far as to toss out profanities, call them names... telling people to SHUT UP and if they didn't have an answer to your issue, to stay out of your thread.

Take your own advice.

It does not matter why this person hates OS6. They want to roll back and if you can't help them with it, then move on!

As for Matrix Leader, learn to ignore him. He hasn't changed. He thinks that everyone should use the same phone and build he's using. And, that changes from day to day. Anyone that disagrees with him is a "Hater" and "Looser." Just watch for a very childish response to my posts here for proof.

As for the rest of us, feel free to PM us. We will give you advice on the various OS's to run. But, the RIGHT OS for you will only be determined by you, the apps you use, what you like, how your phone handles.... and no one should try to tell you otherwise.
