Is there no way of getting Android 1.6 back????

I hate 2.1, i think that it performs sluggishly on my phone, sure booting might be faster but everything else is sh*t!!
I have trouble installing apps, they download from the market but don't install!!!
Switching portrait to landscape takes forever!!!
And its just not very good, and as stable as 1.6, i never had any problems with 1.6 on it!!!
Is there ANYWAY at all to get back?????
PLEASE!!!!!!
I hate my phone because of this!!!

No there isnt any way, when you were upgrading, you should have known that already.

I did but i didn't know that 2.1 was going to be so problematic for me!

Try to reflash to 2.1 again, see what happens, maybe you did something wrong that it is so laggy for you.

Try to reflash your phone THEN do a hard reset. That should alleviate most of your issues including the phone being sluggish.

Why downgrade to 1.6 man ?!
1. Upgrade it from 1.6 to 2.1
2. Upgrade 2.1 to 2.1 with fastboot
3. Upgrade 2.1 with fastboot to 2.1 with fastboot and Clockwork recovery
4. Add the latest KERNEL
5. Root the phone
6. Flash it with OpenSwift4.3 (most people got problems with 4.4)
7. Download SetCPU and clock it to max 806 - stable
8. Download LauncherPro from the net... Install it and make it your Defoult launcher
9. Now you got the cheapest and best mobile on the EARTH
Im using it without any problems and its quicker and better then my friends HTC Desire !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
btw. dont install any App Killers like Advanced Task Killer or something like that cause its killing your mobile, it doesent help you out... Kills your CPU and battery a lot !

I liked 1.6 but there are few apps I wanted that required 2.1 so I went with the Black Quarx rom, great so far and everything works (afaik). Still think its a shame that the original 1.6 rom isn't available.

Titanium Backup is free or paid and lets you back up your programs and unistall the factory ones i f you want.
Root explorer lets you see and modify the system files and is free.
SetCPU is a paid app but lets you overclock or underclock. You have to have a kernel or Rom that will allow changing the CPU frequency though.

my ideos s7 comes with 1 GHz default, and setcpu does not have option to oc over 1 GHz.

CyanogenMod 7 crashes

well i don't know why this mod won't work for me..
i've tried a few of the nightlies and now the rc1, and it just kills my phone.
it installs all fine, and if i dont touch the phone its ok.. but as soon as i start to try and do anything on the phone... open the menu, or apps screen anything... after about 5secs the phone just crashes and restarts.

Flash the 4.1 kernel

You can flash 4.1 kernel from jacob thread.or instal setcpu and reduce the max freq abit

thanks Michealtbh the 4.1 defiantly worked.... from what i saw on the thread about it, is the cm7 mods (4.2?) kernal natively putting the clock at 768, cause mine does crash at that 748 seems stable. but run at 729 to be safe
Funnnny, yes that probably would of worked too by the looks of it... only problem is i couldn't get it to stay alive long enough to even install it
question.. with 4.1 installed and setcpu all up and going running at 729.. could i then now reinstall the original 4.2? kernal ???? is it better or just leave it alone?

[ROM] B160 - New OC Kernel, Root, Wifi-tether

I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
Rom based on Official B160.
Features
Kernel from genolokar (available here), see note 1 below for overclocking info.
Rooted and latest SuperUser
Native froyo wifi tethering
WyContacts 1.2 and XDA Dialer 30.1 (turn to silence, blacklist, many other features)
CM 6.1 Email app and wallpapers
Launcher Pro 0.8.5
Some build.prop tweaks
Same enhancements that are claimed for B160 (better call quality, better wireless, better camera)
Installation will not format /data or remove apps from /cust. For some roms (unicom in particular) this will cause problems due to some incompatibilities, and will require a factory reset to function correctly.
BIG THANKS to genokolar for creating the new kernel
Requirements
Clockworkmod recovery (available here)
Should be compatible with all rom and cust versions, though as stated some will require a factory reset. Please post your findings.
Downloads
Complete rom with all fixes and 1.5Ghz kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/0HR8W3BMUR (updated 15/5/11)
Update with all fixes and 1.5GHz kernel http://www.multiupload.com/OISOHEHTDP
1.8Ghz Kernel (use above download to revert to 1.5GHz kernel): http://www.multiupload.com/T7C4N0Q1CQ
Installation
Copy update.zip to your sdcard
Boot to clockworkmod recovery
(Optional) Perform a full backup [see note 2]. After backing up reboot recovery (in the advanced menu)
Apply update from sdcard
After update is compete wipe dalvik cache (in the advanced menu)
Reboot to system. First boot will be slow as it rebuilds the dalvik cache so be patient, successive boots will be back to normal.
(Optional) If everything is fine delete the backup from step 3 and if you like do another backup
Notes
By default the kernel is set to the default cpu governor and clock speed. If you would like to overclock I suggest using setcpu (available here)
Be aware that after applying this you won't be able to restore the full backup unless you either revert to the original rom, or change the boot image. The purpose of the backup is instead to have a backup of /data just in case something goes wrong.

Not good with CUSTC205D001 Finland Elisa, swype force closes constantly

That's a shame, can you try deleting libswypecore.so from /system/lib ?

Great rom. My phone has no problems with 1.5ghz launcher pro is an awesome inclusion I l love the sideways home screen.

When first boot takes over 30min what do you recommend?
EDIT: Power Cycle did the trick. I did a batterystats wipe and fixed permissons before first boot maybe thats why it hanged. I upgraded from general to stockwells 136 and then this.

Thanks for this great ROM!
The only thing I noticed is that the camera has bad colors. Can somone confirm?
Thanks!

what when it reboots always?

Market appears to be broken now.
Edit - Looks like it had more to do with my crappy internet situation at the time than anything else. Market is working.

Mine was freezing when running at 1500, tuned it down to 1200 and working like a charm so far

My phone won't sleep after flashing this... Did a backup before flashing, but a restore won't help. Suggestions?
How do I go back to stock ROM?

Check if u have any other app which sets the cpu. Or maybe power safe mode enabled?
I had this issue running synapse and set cpu.

Power Saver Enabled. Check it out.

no, i checked and save mode is off and i don't have any other app which controls my cpu i think. i deleted rom toolbox pro and still was changing, now i'm on stock kernel and i don't know yet if it still touches my settings or not. i was using lean kernel 2.5.1 anyway, now stock nd6

I did everytime i flash a kernel but now it's just locked up at that speed.
Rom reflash should get rid of it.:good:

i flashed stock kernel and as far as now it's working. i will try testing GTA:SA again if it changes and how is it working too

okay, so the problem is here again... unfortunately. i'm gonna flash new rom again, stock deodexed like in my signature but i don't know if it is worth flashing custom kernels or just stay on stock.

Do what u prefer. The CPU lock should not be from custom kernel. I tried most of the kernels especially lk. Can u put all root related apps in one window and make a screen shot?
Edit. Rom flash does not necessarily get rid of the issue when restoring I had and sometimes still have the CPU lock when playing around with kernels and settings.
