First and most importantly this is only my opinion and off the wall suggestions. So don't get your panties pushed up. Take it for what it is and maybe this thread can be productive instead of a name calling or "can't" or "won't" thread. Aren't we all BerryHeads?
There seems to be a some Legacy BBOSZ users going back to their older BlackBerry 9900. Mainly because of the learning curve from OS7 to BB10.
Coming from a 9900 myself, I had a difficult first month with the Classic. But with the newer 10.3 OS and an understanding of apps, I have made the transition and like it. Yes, there are still some things not as good as OS7, but overall it is the best Qwerty phone BlackBerry has made.
I started a thread in the Bold 9900/9930 forum about producing a retro fit mother board for the 9900 to:
1) Update the 9900 with at least 2k RAM
2) Help stop migration to other platforms as these older phones die.
3) Stabilize the loss of SAF/BIS revenue
That thread is here:

This thread:
Since people are having problems with BB10 why not take OS7 and install it on the Classic? I know it is going backwards but this will allow the death of older Legacy phones and a smooth transition to BB10.
OS8: Program OS7 in a manner to work the same way it did on the 9900 except adapt it to be used on the newer CPU. And if possible use the same apps.
Program OS9 to be an upgrade adding some of the BB10 Hub features and the apps from BB10.
Program OS10 to be a maybe BB10.2. Or something in between OS9 and the current BB10 OS.
Final update would be current BB10 OS
The user could update as he feels comfortable with.
Then there is no reason for a Legacy owner to switch to another brand and they would be able to make a slower transition to BB10
Brain storm????
