Help, I just got OS 6 and I want OS 5 back.

Hey
I just got OS 6 and i dislike it, I am much more comfortable with OS 5, so I would like to downgrade back to it. Is this possible? I  really want my OS 5 back, so please help, thanks.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
An old saying...
The best device for anyone is the one they become the most used to
I might venture to guess that if you give yourself time, you might grow to like it.
But, if you insist...from a PC, you can install any OS package to a BB via this procedure:

Note that while written for "reload", it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. You can even use a different carriers OS package by simply inserting, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, of a file named VENDOR.XML. Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
