That was posted by a user called Phill_uk in the main 8900 Beta .238 discussion thread, I downloaded this version and am also currently using it so can confirm it's real and works, have fun!

Also, do you have the instructions of how to install it?

do your homework before you ever do an upgrade.

I didn't see you on Fatboy so I said it for you When people just jump into an upgrade without knowing what they're doing or how to downgrade it just causes more problems for them and us because then we are flooded with "Help with upgrade,I lost everything!" posts.

Sure, that works as long as you have the knowledge and the know-how to take care of yourself when things go wrong. The issue is that people won't search and educate themselves on how to do things and instead dive in head first then have problems. When they do have the problems they will come here for us to bail them out. It gets old after a while when the information is easily available if they had just taken the time to read it - like us who are helpful around here already have.

Go to the BETA OS Forum and look for yourself... .238 is a very old BETA OS.... 5.0.0.411 is the most recent BETA OS... and before you ask, it's located in the BETA OS Forum.
