How do I change bbm back to older version??

Hi there, I just updated my bbm version from 7 to 8. I do not like the new bbm and I'm wondering how do I change it back to the 7.0.1.2.3 version??
I tried backing up my phone via desktop manager but it didn't change my bbm back
Please help!!! Thanks so much

I did a couple of things that gave me back bbm 7. although ALL is deemed unsafe to do by BLACKBERRYHELP people who wrote back to me via twitter.....
1. go to options/setting (the wrench icon); choose APPLICATION; choose add-on/core and look for the "BlackBerry Messenger" and click on the bblogo button, it should give you the option to DELETE. click on delete and reboot the device. you'll be prompted to install bbm upon restarting.
2. do a complete device "format" (reloading the OS) and in my case, I choose to update via bb built-in browser instead of appworld to get bbm 7. if I chose appworld, it would certainly put bbm 8.1 back on my device, an old 8530 that spits out at least 3 error messages hourly while running bbm 8.1.
3. a couple of my friend found some links that rages through the broadcast msg, the one that gives you an URL to just forcely install bbm7 upon bbm8. it works on their device (newer ones, started with 9)
good luck
