found after about 10 mins of searching the forums. Just kept jumping 20-30 pages of threads every time I saw 4.5

[Vortex337]

Did you change your settings in the profile for your ringtones? Make sure they are set to loud before you update errr downdate your O.S.

i need the old 4.2 os please some one help

[Vortex337]

I just posted it for you.

[tankchelle]

i have looked on the blackberry website and all i can find is the 4.5 os down load or the 4.5 desktop manager

[tankchelle]

i cant downgrade my phone when i down load the 4.2 it just installs the desktopmanager but my phone is still using 4.5

[Vortex337]

A couple posts before the BB.com post I posted it from one of the forums. Do a wipe of your BB before you d/l 4.2 so it gets rid of 4.5 before trying to overwrite.
Still don't get why you NEED to downgrade....

[tankchelle]

how do i wipe the 4.5 and like i said i cant get 4.2 it wont let me it only installs the desktop manager 4.2

[Vortex337]

searching now. I've seen it in a couple threads, never had to do it myself. Are you only trying to downgrade because of Rintone volume?

[tankchelle]

yea its really a hassle i mean its super low god this sucks i cant seem to get this figured out my phone is using 4.5 os and i downloaded the 4.2 thinkin it was os but its the desktop manager

[Vortex337]

Here is the info on how to do it with a storm. I don't know if it is similar but I'll keep looking. Or if you can use that string to find the upgrade/downgrade in help for Curve.

Did you go into the profiles and make sure that the sounds are set to High? If you recently upgraded to 4.5 then the profiles could have been reset.

[tankchelle]

i just need 4.2 os

[Vortex337]

Another thing you might try is running a 4.5 hybrid OS. It really sucks going backwards!

[tankchelle]

yea i know but all i want is for my phone to be as loud as it was... i need the 4.2 os and how do i get the hybrid?

Why did you start another thread for this? Someone was already providing you assistance in your first thead.

If you arent willing to listen to people when they try and help you why even post?

yea i know but all i want is for my phone to be as loud as it was... i need the 4.2 os and how do i get the hybrid?

I really doubt a hybrid solution is going to do you any good here.

If you use custom mp3 ringtones, you can just use Audacity or mp3 Gain to increase the volume of the ringtone file. In Audacity it is the gain setting that you want to increase. It is indicated in +dB for decibels. Adjust the gain of the mp3 file, then save it to your media card.

After doing this, I can leave my Profile on Normal, when Loud was too soft previously.

a second post on the same topic....I still don't understand why you are wanting 4.2, when 4.5.110 is the latest official release from AT&T. Some other copious reason maybe?
